Israel's Far-Right Minister Seeks West Bank Annexation Amid Trump Victory

ai generated text

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has ordered preparations for the annexation of settlements in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, but it remains unclear if this will be implemented soon. Smotrich believes that Trump will recognize Israel's push for "sovereignty" over the territory.

    1. I have instructed the Settlement Division in the Ministry of Defense and the Civil Administration to begin professional and comprehensive work to prepare the necessary infrastructure for applying sovereignty.
    2. In his first term, President Trump led dramatic steps, including… affirming the legality and legitimacy of settlements in Judea and Samaria.
    3. I have no doubt that President Trump, who showed courage and determination in his decisions during his first term, will support the State of Israel in this move.

    1. We hold the Israeli occupation authorities fully responsible for the repercussions of these dangerous policies.

    1. Mr. Trump made it clear to Mr. Netanyahu that he wants this finished by January 20 when he goes into the White House.
    2. I think he's somewhat afraid of Trump. He thinks Trump can manipulate him, but he's afraid that if Trump is onto him, Trump could get very angry as opposed to Biden, who, for some reason, never pressured him back, never pushed back on his manipulations.

    1. And I fear that the risk of rebuilding settlements into Gaza has just grown dramatically.
    2. Getting Trump into the White House is like they won also the American lottery.
    3. I think for Smotrich and Ben-Gvir, having the kind of Israeli government we have today, the most extreme Israeli government in the history of this country, was kind of an equivalent of winning the Israeli lottery.
    4. The massive power that the annexation camp in Israel has today would not have happened without the first Trump term.
