Israel: Netanyahu promises to annex a part of the West Bank

Kamil Kuchta 6. April 2019

Politics during the elections often turns into a real fair and festival of promises. We have all seen very poor quality of election spots, exceptionally unsuccessful billboards, as well as promises based on sci-fi books. However, there is a country where the election campaign leads to tragic events.

The Knesset (Israeli parliament) rarely survives the end of its term. This is due to quite high political fragmentation and a low electoral threshold (3.25%). There are 10 parties in the current 120-person Knseset. Effect? In the Knesset, it never happened that one party reached a parliamentary majority. A political party that wins elections must always enter into coalitions and often with many parties. Each of them has its own postulates and views, which often leads to a conflict within the grouping and, consequently, the dissolution of the coalition.

It was the same with the current government. A right-wing coalition composed of the Likud (Union) party, Jahadut Ha-Tor (Torah Party), Ha-Bajit Ha-Jehudi (Jewish House), Szas (Sephardic Party of Torah Guardians) and Kulan (We all) fell apart. This was due to the party of Jisra’el Betenu, (Our Home Israel), who joined the coalition in 2016 and left it in 2018. The main reason for the disagreement was signing an agreement with the Palestinians after the biggest clashes since 2014. Avigdor Lieberman, the head of Jisra’el Beten, could not accept it. He is in a group of politicians who do not accept any compromise on the Palestinian issue.

Netanyahu’s promise

Binjamin Netanyahu is an efficient politician, but it is increasingly said that he has a very personal policy regarding the conflict with Palestine. In 1976, together with his elder brother Jonathan, he took part in the operation to rescue the kidnapped plane from the Palestinians in the city of Entebbe. Only one Israeli commando was killed in action: the brother of the future Prime Minister of Israel. The circumstances of his death are not fully known, but one of the versions is that he died because Binjamin Netanyahu could not stand the pressure and start shooting at the guards too early. Perhaps this is just a rumor dissolved by political opponents.

Whatever the truth is, it is a fact that Jonathan Netanyahu died during the action, which certainly had to affect Binjamin Netanyahu and his attitude towards the Palestinians.

It’s about areas where there are already Jewish settlements. From the point of view of international law, the creation of clusters of population in occupied territories is illegal, but Israel has ignored protests for a long time. Netanyahu has made it clear that he is not only concerned with the compact concentration of Israeli settlers, but also with individual settlements. He also stated that any independent Palestine would be a threat to the existence of Israel.

Netanyahu has recently seen a decline in voters’ support because there is a case against Corpuptions against him. But Hamas still rules and is elected in the Gaza Strip. This movement does not really have any electoral program except for the promise of blood and the fight against the eternal enemy. Fatah, who rules in the West Bank, is trying not to provoke Israel, but the fear caused by Hamas may lead to increased support for Netanyahu, who will want to escalate the conflict
