Israel Will Stay Forever in Areas They Stole in 1967 War

by | Jun 2, 2019

Not that you were so foolish as to believe the Israeli government would ever allow Palestinian independence.

But for the record, again: Israel has already de facto annexed the last of Palestine 52 years ago. It is an apartheid state, not a democracy, and is certainly no ally of the USA:

Israel liberated Jerusalem, Hebron, Judea and Samaria and the Golan Heights 52 years ago and will stay there forever, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday night at the traditional Jerusalem Day Celebration at the Mercaz Harav yeshiva in the capital.

Netanyahu, who began his speech to the cheering students at the yeshiva by saying he felt among “family,” said that politics and life demands compromises, but that “there are times when it is forbidden to compromise, not to bow our head.“

Leaders, Netanyahu said, need to know when to compromise, and when to be stubborn and stand upright against the whole world when needed.
