Netanyahu's Far-Right Coalition: Goals for Gaza and the West Bank

Israel's Most Right-Wing Government

• 🎯 Israel's government is currently the most right-wing it has ever been, formed after the November 2022 elections.
• 🤝 Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu leads a coalition that includes extreme far-right parties, such as ultranationalists and Jewish supremacists.
• ⚖️ Netanyahu's reliance on these allies is partly due to his need for political survival amidst corruption scandals.

Far-Right Agendas for Gaza

• 💥 Ministers from the far-right coalition have openly stated their desire to conquer the Gaza Strip.
• ✈️ They advocate for the evacuation of Palestinians from Gaza, with plans suggesting it could take months to years depending on the daily rate.
• 🗺️ Some fervent supporters organize marches demanding that Gaza become Israeli territory, with some expressing readiness to move into the area.

West Bank Expansion and Annexation Goals

• 🏘️ The far-right ministers also aim to increase the number of Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, which are considered illegal under international law.
• 📈 Their long-term objective is the annexation of the West Bank territory.
• ❌ One minister has called for the village of Huara to be "wiped off the map" by the state of Israel.

Religious Controversies and Political Leverage

• 🕌 Far-right leaders have caused controversy regarding holy sites, such as Itamar Ben-Gvir praying at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, violating a 1967 agreement.
• 🤝 Netanyahu has not officially endorsed these provocative acts but depends on his ultra-nationalist allies for his parliamentary majority.
• ⚠️ Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich leverage their positions by threatening to resign, thereby destabilizing the coalition if Netanyahu does not align with their demands.
