Netanyahu - Again - Rejects a Palestinian State; More Afraid of Ben-Gvir Than of Biden
Israel's fat-face national security minister told Bibi point blank: Stop killing Gazans, and I'll dissolve the government, and you'll face charges
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu repeated Friday that there will be no Palestinian state as long as he’s in charge — a slap in the face to the Biden administration and the war whores in Congress who have said a two-state solution is the only avenue to peace in the region.
Most Americans have no clue that Netanyahu was deeply unpopular in Israel before the 7 October attack by Hamas, so he had to cobble together a government filled with fat-face racists like Itamar Ben-Gvir, his bloated national security minister. Ben-Gvir has told Netanyahu that he will dissolve the government if he ever eases the war effort in Gaza, and has recommended removing all Palestinians from the enclave as a humanitarian solution.

Netanyahu on Friday responded to a report in the U.S. that Washington officials are working with Arab allies to lay out the groundwork for a Palestinian state.
Netanyahu, who has reportedly bragged in private that he is the only Israeli leader who could keep that from happening, said giving the Palestinians statehood would be a “huge reward” for the 7 October Hamas attack.
"Israel categorically rejects international dictates regarding a permanent settlement with the Palestinians," Netanyahu said, according to Reuters. "Israel will continue to oppose unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state."
