The spokesman for the National Security Council at the White House, John Kirby, said, on Monday evening, that the United States has repeatedly expressed its concern about building more Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

Kirby was commenting in the daily briefing on what was published in the Israeli and American media about Tel Aviv informing Washington that it intends to promote the construction of 4,000 new settlement units.

Kirby said: We do not want to see Israeli steps that would increase tension and make it difficult to reach a two-state solution.

Today, Monday, the occupation forces arrested two boys from the town of Al-Isawiya in occupied Jerusalem.

According to local sources, the occupation forces arrested Amir Skafi, 14, and Amr Abu Rumaila, 16.

He added that Minister Shukri expressed deep concern about the continued escalation of violence, the intensity of Israeli incursions into the West Bank and the resulting casualties, which exacerbates tension and tension.

For his part, the UN coordinator expressed his appreciation for Egypt's pivotal role in the peace process, looking forward to continuing coordination with it in order to break the current stalemate in the peace process and restore hope for finding a final, comprehensive and just settlement for the Palestinian cause.

Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh called on the European Union to play an effective role by pressuring Israel to abide by the agreements signed with it and to stop all unilateral measures in the Palestinian territories.

This came during his meeting with the Vice-President of the European Commission, Margaritis Schinas, today, Monday, in his office in Ramallah, in the presence of the European Union representative to Palestine, Sven Kon von Burgsdorff.

Shtayyeh discussed with Shinas the latest developments in light of the political vacuum, stressing the importance of working to create an international movement to revive the Arab peace initiative, end the Israeli occupation and establish an independent Palestinian state on the 1967 borders with Jerusalem as its capital.

The Prime Minister said: "Israel is working to impose measures to destroy the two-state solution, through daily incursions into the Palestinian territories, which constitute a process of reoccupying the West Bank, killing and arresting operations, and seizing lands in favor of settlement expansion, and re-settlement in a number of evacuated settlements in the northern West Bank." Which will lead to a slide towards a single state with an apartheid regime in reality, laws and legislation.”

And he continued: "In addition to the war on Palestinian geography, money and the narrative, Israel is waging a religious war on Islamic and Christian holy sites, especially in Jerusalem, and is working to Judaize them, and attempts to divide temporally and spatially the Al-Aqsa Mosque, which will lead to igniting a religious war."

He added, "While Israel has held 5 elections in the last 4 years, it continues to prevent us from holding elections in all of our lands, including Jerusalem."

Shtayyeh appreciated the continued European support for Palestine at all levels, and its harmony with the Palestinian national priorities, and its firm and supportive position for the two-state solution.

For his part, Schinas expressed the European Union's continued support for Palestinian national priorities and the needs of the Palestinian people with the aim of improving their living conditions and achieving a two-state solution. He expressed his concern about what is happening in Islamic and Christian sanctities, stressing the need to work to preserve the historical status quo, especially in Jerusalem.

The reliable Israeli political reporter, Barak Ravid, revealed, on Monday evening, a new Israeli settlement plan that will be promoted at the end of this month, to build 4,000 new settlement units in various settlements in the West Bank.

The Israeli correspondent for the Hebrew Walla website, and the American Axios, quoted American and Israeli sources as saying, “Last week, the government of Benjamin Netanyahu informed the administration of US President Joe Biden of its intention to promote this settlement scheme, by informing Tel Aviv, Washington, that it decided to postpone the discussion of The issue of construction in the E1 area, which is sensitive in terms of security and politics.

An American official said that the announcement of postponing construction in that sensitive area is just the first part of the Netanyahu government informing the Biden administration that it intends to build 4,000 more units in the West Bank, indicating that there are efforts by the US administration to try to reduce the number of new units, and that They will be in the settlement blocs and not outside them in isolated settlements.

An Israeli source said that the Higher Council for Planning and Building in the Civil Administration will convene at the end of this month to approve this new plan.

In response, a White House spokesman said that settlement expansion is an obstacle to the peace process. Neither Netanyahu's office nor the US State Department responded to the report.

Today, Monday, the prisoners in the occupation prisons decided to partially close the sections tomorrow, Tuesday, as a preliminary message to protest against the behavior of the administration (Ramla Prison Clinic).

According to the Supreme National Emergency Committee of the National Captive Movement, this step comes in light of the intransigence of the administration (Ramla prison clinic) in responding to the demands of sick prisoners, especially the sick prisoner Walid Daqqa, and preventing him from communicating with his family under flimsy pretexts.

The committee pointed out that the clinic administration practices abuse of prisoners by preventing many types of food.

Al-Monitor published a report entitled "Between the Palestinian Legacy and Hamas, Fatah's Crisis Deepens in the West Bank" and published it today, Monday. It reflects the continuous deterioration of the movement for some time. "Since the pro-Fatah lists were defeated by the pro-Hamas list in the 2006 parliamentary elections, Fatah's popularity has been declining, according to opinion polls and actual votes in municipal and university council elections."

However, the site explains: "The Fatah movement is still the only option available at the present time, especially with the impossibility of a political movement in the Palestinian-Israeli track before the US elections in 2024, with the presence of the current Israeli far-right coalition, which has increased pressure on the Palestinians." .

Today, Fatah's main rival is the reformist Fatah movement, which is supported and funded (significantly) by former UAE-based Fatah security chief Mohammed Dahlan, and which has been making political strides throughout Jerusalem and the rest of the West Bank and Gaza. The accepted scenario was that Dahlan and his team would not take any action until after the term of the current president of Fatah, Mahmoud Abbas, who is 86 years old, ends.

However, the report indicates: “There is increasing pressure behind the scenes to allow Dahlan’s supporters, especially his right-hand man, Samir Mashrawi, to operate more openly in Gaza. Sources told Al-Monitor that Dahlan’s team is coordinating with all Fatah factions and communicating with Hamas. Which, despite its control of Gaza, is in dire need of help. The report notes that an alliance is being formed between Dahlan's team and the dissident Nasser Kidwai group, in coordination with the imprisoned Palestinian Fatah leader Marwan Barghouti.

The report also notes that "Dahlan - who stated that he does not plan to run for any political position - wants to push Marwan (Barghouti) as the next president of the Palestinian Authority, but successive opinion polls, including the one conducted by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research last year, show that Barghouti, imprisoned since 2006, is the most popular Palestinian figure today, and what is noteworthy is that Fatah is a non-ideological liberation movement of various political affiliations, whose members today largely work in various security and government positions.

The report also notes that "this ruling class is corrupt and interested in keeping Abbas in power for as long as possible to reap the fruits of his legitimacy, and it is governed by a central committee consisting of 20 members, who are elected from 1,400 members of Parliament. The Seventh Fatah Conference was held in Bethlehem in 2016, and it was The next conference is supposed to take place in two to three years, but there are no signs of that anytime soon."

The report indicates that the Palestinians feel frustrated by the lack of any political progress, and "they do not see any tangible strategy for liberation or a better governance policy." The report notes that the cancellation of the presidential and legislative elections in April 2022 is still felt today, and the Palestinians fear that The continuation of power in the hands of one person without elections will push the Palestinians towards more tyranny."

Axios revealed Monday that the United States last week notified the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) privately that it had decided to return to the agency nearly six years after the Trump administration announced the withdrawal of US membership, a State Department spokesperson told Axios.

Joining UNESCO is one of the Biden administration's foreign policy goals - primarily in an effort to counter what it views as the Chinese government's growing influence over the UN agency's agenda.

It is reported that after Palestine became a full member of UNESCO in 2011, the Obama administration stopped funding the organization because it was prohibited from doing so under US law.

In October 2017, the administration of former President Donald Trump announced that it would end its membership in UNESCO due to what it described as bias against Israel, and Israel, in turn, announced that it would leave the organization shortly after.

And the site says, "In the month of 2022, the Israeli government notified the US State Department that it would not oppose the return of the United States to UNESCO. The Israeli position paved the way for some Democrats and Republicans in Congress to support the move, and last December, Congress approved a bill that appropriated more than 500 One million dollars to pay off the United States' debt to UNESCO and allow it to return as a full member."

Legislation from the US Congress includes a provision that if the Palestinians gain member state status in a UN agency, the US will stop funding it again.

The bill will expire on September 30, 2025, when UNESCO's current director-general leaves office, but Congress will likely extend the term of the law.

According to the site: "A spokesman for the US State Department said that the Deputy Secretary of State for Administrative Affairs and Resources, Richard Verma, delivered a letter to the Director-General of UNESCO, Audrey Azoulay, on June 8, proposing a plan for the United States to return to join the organization."

An informed source told Axios, "The plan, which came as a result of long negotiations between the US State Department and UNESCO, sets a timetable for repayment of the US debt and for its readmission to the agency's executive board."

Last Friday, the UNESCO Director-General's office invited ambassadors of all member states to an extraordinary meeting scheduled for Monday, during which Azoulay will present urgent strategic information, according to an email obtained by Axios.

A source familiar with the issue said that Azoulay called the meeting to inform member states of the US plan to return to UNESCO and to demand their approval to hold a special general meeting in July to welcome the US decision and approve the accession plan.

"Any such action (returning to UNESCO) requires the approval of existing UNESCO members," said a US State Department spokesperson.

According to the site, the United States wants to rejoin UNESCO and start paying off its debts now so that it can run for a seat on the UNESCO Executive Board in the next elections in November.

Former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has died at the age of 86 of leukemia, his spokesman told AFP on Monday.

The Italian billionaire media mogul was taken to a Milan hospital on Friday for what his aides said were pre-planned medical check-ups. He was admitted to the same hospital six weeks ago with leukemia and pneumonia.

Berlusconi has been hospitalized several times in recent years, especially after contracting Covid-19 in 2020. Despite his re-election to the Senate last year, his public appearances were rare.

He served as Prime Minister three times between 1994 and 2011 for a total of nine years, was a senator and head of his right-wing party "Forza Italia" and a partner in the coalition government headed by far-right Giorgia Meloni.

Berlusconi retained a special place in the hearts of many Italians, despite the series of sexual scandals and judicial files that tarnished his reputation over the years.

Berlusconi, the exceptional personality and father of five children from two marriages, found a new girlfriend in 2020, Marta Fassina, a former model who is 53 years younger than him and is a representative of his party, "Forza Italia".

Berlusconi had previously built a marble mausoleum inspired by the pharaohs in his home in Arcuri, near Milan, to bury his family and friends when they died.

However, the details of his burial are still unclear.

Today, Monday, the Prisoners' Club said, "5,000 prisoners are languishing in the prisons of the Israeli occupation, including 31 female prisoners in "Damoon" prison, and 160 children and minors, distributed among (Ofer, Megiddo, and Damon) prisons.

The club stated in a statement that the number of old prisoners arrested before the signing of the Oslo agreement reached (23) prisoners, the oldest of whom is the prisoner Muhammad al-Tus, who has been detained since 1985. In addition, there are (11) prisoners who were freed in the (Wafaa al-Ahrar) deal, who returned the occupation. They are among the veterans of the prisoners who were arrested since before (Oslo) and released in 2011 and re-arrested in 2014, most notably the prisoner Nael Al-Barghouti, who is serving the longest period of detention in the history of the captive movement, and who entered his year (43) in the occupation prisons, of which he spent (34) years continuously.

The number of martyrs of the captive movement has reached (237), since 1967, in addition to hundreds of prisoners who were martyred after their liberation from diseases they inherited from prisons. Note that the number of martyrs of the captive movement has been documented since 1967, does not mean that there were no martyrs before this date.

As for the martyred prisoners whose bodies are being held, they are (12) prisoners, and they are: Anis Doula, who was martyred in Ashkelon prison in 1980, Aziz Owaisat since 2018, Faris Baroud, Nassar Taqatqa, Bassam Al-Sayeh, and the three of them were martyred during 2019, Saadi Al-Gharabli, and Kamal Abu Waar.

The number of administrative detainees reached 1083, including 3 female prisoners and 19 children, while the number of detained journalists reached (17) journalists.

Today, Monday, citizens were injured when settlers attacked their vehicles between the villages of Qusra and Jalud in Nablus.

According to local sources, a group of settlers threw stones at passing cars, injuring two civilians.

Meanwhile, they uprooted and broke olive trees, and burned agricultural crops in the village of Qusra.

NATO is conducting its largest air maneuver, coordinated by Germany, with the aim of showing the unity of its members in the face of potential threats, especially from Russia.

The Air Defender 23 exercise will continue until June 23 and will include about 250 military aircraft from 25 NATO member states and allies, including Japan and Sweden, which are candidates to join the defense alliance.

About ten thousand people will participate in these exercises aimed at enhancing joint operation and protection from drones and cruise missiles in the event of an attack on cities, airports or ports located within NATO territory.

The 2018 exercise was conceived in response to Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014, although it does not specifically target "any party," General Ingo Gerharz, commander of the German air force, said while introducing the exercise.

He said that NATO is determined to defend "every inch" of its territory, adding, "We are a defense alliance and these maneuvers were planned on this basis."

But he also confirmed that he would not send "any aircraft towards the Kaliningrad pocket, for example," which is the Russian enclave bordering NATO members Poland and Lithuania.

"We are a defense alliance and this training is designed on this basis," he added.

But these maneuvers will have the goal of delivering a message, especially to Russia, as the US ambassador to Germany, Amy Gattmann, told reporters.

"I would be very surprised if no leader in the world noticed what this shows in terms of the spirit of this alliance and what the strength of this alliance means, and this includes Mr. (Vladimir) Putin, the Russian president," she said.

"We are redoubling our strength through our joint coordination," she added.

Russia's war against Ukraine galvanized the Western military alliance, which was created some 75 years ago to confront the Soviet Union.
Finland and Sweden, which have long maintained formal neutrality to avoid any conflict with Moscow, asked to join the Atlantic after the start of the Russian invasion on February 24, 2022.

The maneuvers will include operational and tactical training, especially in Germany, but also in the Czech Republic, Estonia and Latvia.

On Friday, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz will visit the pilots stationed at Schleswig-Jagel Airport in northern Germany.

And the director of the US Air National Guard, General Michael Loh, said that NATO's tasks are at a "turning point".

"A lot has changed in the global strategic landscape, especially here in Europe," he said.

He added that the exercise aims to "complement the permanent presence of the United States in Europe" and provide training "on a larger scale than is usually accomplished on the continent."

Michael Loh explained that many of the alliance's pilots will be working together for the first time, adding, "It's about preserving the old relationships we have and also building new ones."

"It is about establishing what it means to confront a great power in the context of great-power competition," he said.

Gattman noted that there are no current projects to make the Air Defender 23 exercise a regular exercise, but she also said, "We hope this exercise will not be the last."

Speaking about possible disruptions to civil aviation during the maneuver, Gerhartz stressed that the organizers will do "everything in their power" to reduce delays or cancellations of flights, at a time when school holidays begin in some German regions.

Founded at the beginning of the Cold War, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) has become the main joint military defense organization, comprising 31 member states in Europe and North America.

Today, Monday, Israeli bulldozers demolished a wooden room and a water well, and leveled a section of a street in the town of Hizma, northeast of occupied Jerusalem.

According to local sources, these bulldozers, accompanied by the occupation forces, stormed the northern area of ​​the town, and bulldozed a section of a street that connects several neighborhoods in it, after the municipality had flattened it in 2014, and it was paved in 2018.

In the same area, a wooden room and a water well belonging to citizens Fares Al-Omari and Awad Asaker were demolished, under the pretext of building in Area C and not having a permit.

Today, Monday, Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh warned of the "Amit Halevy" bill, which will be presented to the Israeli Knesset in the coming days, to impose temporal and spatial division in the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Shtayyeh said at the outset of the cabinet session: "This step will cause massive anger whose results cannot be expected, given the sanctity and religious value of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque for the Palestinian people, Arabs and Muslims, as the first qiblah and the Prophet's journey and ascension to heaven."

Shtayyeh called for an Arab, Islamic and international move that goes beyond the vocabulary of denunciation and condemnation to impose sanctions that prevent any change in the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque.

He also called for real international pressure to stop Israel's implementation of the settlement plan, which has become known as the (E1) area, which aims to undermine the chances of establishing a contiguous Palestinian state by building a new colony linking the settlements of Jerusalem with the "Ma'ale Adumim" colony, and the consequent division of the West Bank. West Bank into two separate regions, which means preventing the two-state solution.

Shtayyeh said, "We demand to discourage Israel from proceeding with its colonial and expansionist plans, including presenting plans to build a major industrial zone between the colony of Ariel and the Green Line on the lands of the villages of Sineria, Rafat, and Al-Zawiya, with an area of ​​about 2,700 dunums."

In another context, Shtayyeh said: "The Cabinet looks with great interest at the President's visit to the People's Republic of China, which begins tomorrow at the kind invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping. This visit marks the 60th anniversary of the establishment of Palestinian-Chinese relations, and 35 years of relations Diplomacy between the two friendly countries, and we look forward to its expected outcomes in terms of consolidating and strengthening bilateral relations in all fields.

Regarding the crimes inside the occupied territories, he said: "We look with great pain at the victims of the crimes committed in the lands of 1948, which claimed the lives of more than 100 people since the beginning of the year, among our people inside the occupied territories, and we hold the Israeli authorities fully responsible for the high rate of crimes that did not move to stop them or prosecute their perpetrators." In a racist practice that does not standardize.”

He added: "Israel, as a settler-colonial state, works to destroy the spirit of cohesion in the Palestinian society at home, sows strife, does not impose order, and wants you to always fight each other. We call on our people in the lands of 48 in the name of Palestine and in the name of the souls of your children to spare blood and show reason and wisdom." .

Today, the Council of Ministers will discuss: security and financial issues, issues related to the Old City of Hebron, recommendations related to artificial intelligence, the anti-monopoly law, the state land lease system, social infrastructure projects such as education, health, and physical infrastructure.

Today, Monday, the Israeli occupation authorities demolished 5 houses in the outskirts of the village of Arara al-Naqab in the occupied territories.

According to local sources, the five dwellings belong to the al-Ghoul family, as the demolition order came in the context of the restrictions on citizens and their displacement from their homes and lands, in addition to the scarcity of budgets and their lack of availability to establish projects in order to strengthen the Palestinian towns in the Negev.

Since the establishment of the occupying state, it has been working to stir up strife within the Palestinian society at home, that is, what is left of our Palestinian people inside their homeland in 1948, with the aim of attempts to prevent them from organizing their rights to confront the apparatus of the occupying state that worked against them by various means to keep them dispersed and not united, and arrested many Their leaders warned many of their organizations that called for their unity to defend their rights.

For years, the occupying state, through its security institutions, has been neglecting Palestinian society at home and encouraging crimes committed by some, or criminal gangs, against citizens. Citizens think only of protecting themselves from these criminal operations.

The work of these gangs was not limited to murders that affected children, adults, and women. Rather, they impose taxes on the owners of commercial and non-commercial shops under the guise of providing them with protection from criminal gangs, while they themselves are criminal gangs. Whoever does not pay the taxes, his shop is either burned or destroyed. At the very least, a bomb was placed outside it to force its owner to pay the taxes, which increased poverty within the Palestinian community at home.

The Israeli authorities also make it easier for these gangs to obtain weapons, either by facilitating their theft from Israeli military bases, or buying them cheaply from the black market, or through the occupation soldiers, and of course with the approval of the Israeli state agencies, primarily the police and Shin Bet men.

As a result, these gangs spread and expanded, and they have a presence in all Arab cities, towns, and villages in the Palestinian interior, and the Israeli authorities know this and encourage these gangs to carry out their crimes. Except for a very small number, and the rest are registered against an unknown person or persons.

Frankly speaking, the occupying state and its security services are responsible for the proliferation of these gangs and for the crimes they carry out. The statements made by many Israeli leaders are nothing but sowing dust in the eyes and in front of world public opinion that they are working, but there is no trick.

What also means is that if a weapon is used in any operation against the occupation, the Israeli security services declare a state of alert until the perpetrator is arrested, and most of the time they kill him in cold blood and in broad daylight without trial, although they can arrest and prosecute him, which is contrary to the International laws and norms.

Here, it must be noted that the Palestinian leaderships at home also bear part of the responsibility, even if it is simple, because it is their national, human and moral duty to exert more efforts and carry out awareness-raising operations among the youth and in schools and mosques, and to show everyone, i.e. the citizens, that they are the only beneficiaries of what is happening. Inside the Palestinian society is the occupying state that encourages these crimes to keep the Palestinian society ravaged by these gangs, and does not secure his life, which has become cheap for these gangs that see only their personal interests without the interests of society. demanding his national rights.

Two days ago, the residents of Nazareth woke up to a horrific murder, in which five Arabs were killed. On the same day, three people were injured in Kafr Kanna and Wadi Ara in shooting crimes, bringing the death toll among the Arabs inside the Green Line to 96 since the beginning of this year. The majority of murders fall within the framework of organized crime carried out by gang groups dealing in drugs, gambling and prostitution. In light of the indifference of the Israeli police, killings in the Arab community are on the rise. According to the Times of Israel, 74 people were killed in the Arab community in 2018.

This number rose to 94 in 2019, to 109 in 2020, and to 126 in 2021. This year, the number of victims is expected to exceed 200. While organized crime in the Arab sector rises to 1.7 crimes per day, the paradox lies in the number of Arab victims compared to their percentage within Israeli society, as 731 people were killed in Israel in violent crimes between 2018 and 2022. Despite the fact that the Arab community Constituting only 21% of the population, they accounted for 70% of the total number of victims.

There is no doubt that the phenomenon of violence in Israeli society is on the rise, but it is escalating in a broader and more dangerous way in the Arab sector. In this context, Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper revealed that since the beginning of the previous year 2022, 54,572 files related to physical violence, 31,285 files related to domestic violence, and 7,871 files related to sexual violence were opened in Israel. The data also indicated that, since the beginning of this year, the police opened 7,871 investigation files on charges of committing harassment and sexual crimes, compared to 6,922 files during the previous year. Also, reviews of domestic violence increased by 36% during the first ten months of this year, compared to the same period last year. And it became 5,712 reviews.

In fact, these numbers are shocking, and reflect the nature of apartheid inside Israel, in several aspects, the most important of which are:

First: Discrimination in law enforcement, as the data showed that only 29% of murders were indicted in the Arab community during previous years, compared to 69% for the Jewish community.

Second: Discrimination in providing services to the Arab sector compared to the Jewish sector, especially in the field of banking services, which allows moneylenders from gangs to control the provision of liquidity and loans in the Arab sector in light of the availability of such services in the Jewish sector.

Third: Discrimination in providing security and discipline, as the occupation police do not carry out their duty to control weapons and pursue those who carry them in the Arab community compared to the process of control and control in the Jewish community, which made the process of carrying weapons in the Arab community an easy and unsupervised process.

Fourth: Delay in pursuing organized crime in the Arab sector. Despite the escalation of organized crime in the Arab sector for five years, the so-called Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gvir recently announced in a short statement to the press his intention to give priority now to the problem and to appoint a special coordinator for security policy in the Arab sector. The Arab center!

In fact, the state is not present in the Arab community in Israel, and violence in Israel is without limits, according to Yedioth Ahronoth. These crimes have led to a lack of confidence among the Arab citizen in Israel in Israeli security, and have also led to an increase in the feeling of fear and insecurity among the Arabs. Residents of Arab cities in Israel.

As a result, racist Israel is racist even in the crimes committed within it. These escalating crimes in the Arab sector in Israel reflect the reality of apartheid in which Arab cities live. They are cities that live in the darkness of organized crime amid security chaos intended by the Israeli security authorities. The result that these cities will reach if crime continues to escalate is the displacement of their residents, the reduction of the participation of their citizens in public life, and the increase in poverty and unemployment there.

Four titles sparked the dispute between the far-right coalition government and ultra-religious Judaism, consisting of four parties: Likud headed by Netanyahu, Shas headed by Aryeh Deri, religious Zionism headed by Smotrich and Ben Gvir, and Torah Jews headed by Moshe Gafni, and between the three right-wing opposition parties in the colony, namely:

1- Revoking the powers of the Supreme Court so that it does not interfere with government decisions and executive orders.

2- Withholding the authority to appoint legal advisors from the Judicial Council, so that the appointment is the prerogative of the government, and therefore the appointment is made on the basis of a political party, not a professional one.

3- The appointment of judges is in the power of the government and not in the hands of the Judicial Council.

4- Withholding the power of the Supreme Court to interfere with legislation issued by Parliament - the Knesset.

Thus, the outcome of these amendments put forward by Minister of Justice Yelvin in the name of the coalition, and the work to legislate them with extreme right-wing and religious extremist Jewish tendencies, has eliminated the judicial authority, and the parties of the majority coalition through the formation of the government and the parliamentary majority are the ones that control the path of power in line with the government’s orientations and partisan interests. And it is tantamount to a political, legal, and procedural coup against all the accumulations that have been entrenched over the past decades, and made the leadership of the colony a product of the ballot box, ruled by the majority and submitting to the values ​​of pluralism, similar to what is prevalent in the European and American regimes, claiming that it is democracy in the Arab East.

The right-wing opposition continued its protests for the 24th week in a row with the aim of rejecting the legislation proposed by the government coalition parties, where the opposition parties consider: There is a future led by Yair Lapid, the official camp headed by Benny Gantz and Gideon Sa’ar, and Yisrael Beiteinu headed by Lieberman, as a coup against democracy, towards authoritarianism Far-right and ultra-Orthodox Jew.

The result of the 25 Knesset elections on 1/11/2022, as the third coup in the history of the colony, the first was the day of its establishment and declaration on 15/5/1948, and the second coup in 1977 when the Likud succeeded and took over for the first time the administration of the colony’s government, led by Menachem Begin, opening the door to Shamir And Sharon and Netanyahu to be heads of right-wing Likudian governments, which formed the ground and climate for the success of the third coup on 1/11/2022, and Netanyahu took over the administration of the government that was described as the most right-wing and extreme since the establishment of the colony, and therefore it is not a coincidence, nor in vain, nor an insult, that I donate to describe it as the most right-wing government Right-wing and extremism. Indeed, this description is the result of scrutinizing the content, behavior, and program of this government, Netanyahu's coalition government. Otherwise, what is the meaning of the continuation of these protests against it, even from the moderate right-wing camp that characterizes the opposition camp?

Nearly 45 years ago, the occupying state and the Arab Republic of Egypt signed two peace agreements at Camp David, the first to bring peace to the Middle East, and the other between Egypt and Israel signed in 1979. The first agreement to end the conflict quickly became a dead letter, and the occupying state focused on the bilateral peace agreement with Egypt was not considered a historical peace at the time, and the occupying state believed at the time that it had become a friendly country to the Egyptian government and people, and that once it signed the bilateral agreement, it was able to erase decades of pain from the memory of the Egyptians and the Arab peoples, and ended the state of hostility, war, killing and massacres against the Arab people. Those who signed the agreement left, the agreement remained, and there was no breakthrough to end the conflict on Palestinian land, and the agreement did not lead to a comprehensive peace. The Egyptian land was liberated from the occupation, and Sinai was completely restored by a centimeter. However, the occupying state adopted a strategy of making unilateral peace agreements with the rest of the other Arab regimes, so the (Wadi Araba) agreement with Jordan in 1994 came without achieving a just and comprehensive peace based on restoring the full rights of the Palestinian people and enabling them to have the right to self-determination on the basis of international legitimacy decisions and basic references. for a just and comprehensive peace.

Netanyahu is no different from (Menachem Begin), who signed the Camp David Accord with Egypt. Both of them have a doctrine of hatred and hostility to the Arabs, and that they are a sublime human race, and the rest are servants and inferiors. Both seek only to protect the borders of their occupied entity and thus dismantle the conflict and transform it from an Arab-Israeli to a Palestinian-Israeli. Rather, Netanyahu Much worse than others who wanted to achieve peace with the Palestinians, too, because he does not believe in historical peace based on justice and inclusiveness. for two neighboring peoples. Perhaps his quest to conclude more agreements in what he calls the “Abrahamic Peace” is nothing more than a single peace that he claims is a “reverse peace” that will eventually force the Palestinians to accept the Israeli proposal to resolve the conflict and be forced to join this agreement and settle conflict issues on the basis of security and economic solutions without any political entitlement. for the Palestinians.

The historical peace is a just and comprehensive peace that provides permanent security and stability for all the peoples of the region, the peace that the people believe in, not just the regimes, and proves that the occupying state has completely transformed into a civil state that seeks coexistence within the framework of equal development and prosperity programs for all peoples, and in return stopped the pursuit of military supremacy Possession of destructive weapons is not the unilateral peace adopted by the occupying power as a dangerous strategy to fragment the Arab region, to monopolize its issues, and to use this peace for more cases of infiltration into the Arab political, economic, security and strategic depth without any entitlement to true peace with the Palestinians. The Arab citizen, including members of the army in many countries whose regimes concluded individual peace treaties with the occupying state, are an integral part of Arab societies, historically, religiously, culturally, and politically linked to community issues and their feelings are linked to the nation's issues, concerns, sufferings, and pains, and therefore Arab societies are societies linked by the rule of customs Traditions, language, religion and history are intertwined with each other, especially today, and the world has become a small village in which the event moves from the occupied land to the Arab world at the speed of a missile, especially the news of the Israeli attacks on the Palestinian people, the commission of massacres, the demolition of homes, Judaization and settlement. May God bless him and grant him peace), and the sanctities are desecrated and the Arab Zionists threaten death. Here the lie of the unilateral peace becomes more clear and the Arab peoples’ belief that it is a false and unreal peace is nothing more than an agreement that gives more opportunities for more extremism and hatred.

The border incident at (Al-Auja Crossing) between the historical land of Palestine and Egypt, in which an Egyptian soldier from the border guards was able to kill three soldiers of the occupation army, brings us back to real thinking about the feasibility of the peace that the occupying state makes as a single peace, and brings us back to mind of many similar events that it witnessed The borders between Egypt and the occupying state, or Jordan and the occupying state, or anywhere else, force us all to strategically re-read this peace and evaluate nearly half a century of failed peace and the insistence of the occupying state to make more agreements under other names with some Arab countries such as the Emirates, Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan, and read the behavior of the extreme right-wing occupation Who has become openly unacceptable to enter into any negotiations that lead to a comprehensive and just solution to the conflict on the basis of fairness to the Palestinian people and granting them the right to self-determination, which makes us affirm that this strategy has historically failed by all standards because it does not end Israel's occupation of Arab and Palestinian lands, but only aims to secure the borders of the entity with some Ring countries so as not to allow any infiltration by organizations or forces fighting the occupier to reach the confrontation field inside the occupied territory. The occupying state knows what this failure is, and it bears full responsibility for what happens from time to time. If it believes that it will succeed in the future in making the Arab peoples aware of this kind of fake peace, then it is delusional because Palestine is an Arab land and its continued occupation insults all honorable and free people in our Arab world, and they will cross Their rejection of this occupation in the way that suits them, and if the occupation leaders believe that they can liquidate the Palestinian cause and force the Palestinians to submit to their plans by military force and neutralize the Arab peoples from their first and central cause and separate them from its central framework and fixed issues without moving the national feelings of the Arab peoples, then they are delusional and this is one of the biggest challenges Which confront strategic planners and policy makers in the occupying state because they ignore the established and established fact that Arab blood is one and Arab history cannot be played with its narratives or falsified, no matter how military, media and technological capabilities they possess.

Since the great sin was committed in the Oslo Accord by signing it without a condition for stopping settlement activity, the number of colonial settlers in the West Bank, including Jerusalem, has increased from about 122,000 to more than 750,000, to become a decided political force, with fifteen members in the Israeli Knesset, And several ministers, most notably the terrorists Smotrich and Ben Gvir, who share control of what is happening in the West Bank, including the most dangerous and largest acceleration in settlement expansion, the allocation of unlimited financial resources to support it, control of the police and border guards, and the prisons in which Palestinian prisoners are held, in addition to Provide the protection of the army and all security agencies to protect the colonial settlers, arm them and support their attacks on the Palestinians.

Perhaps the most dangerous phenomenon of all is the planned and systematic attacks carried out by settler armed terrorist gangs against the residents of the West Bank, with the aim of expelling them from their areas of residence and destroying their agriculture and livelihood, in order to facilitate the takeover of the settlement colonies.

These terrorist gangs, including the so-called “hilltop boys,” represent an iteration, even more fascist and brutal, of Zionist terror gangs such as the Irgun, Etzel, and Haganah that were used in 1947 and 1948 to carry out ethnic cleansing against the Palestinians that included razing 520 Palestinian towns and villages from existence and committing 52 massacres. Brutalities such as the massacre of Deir Yassin and Al-Tantura, and the displacement of about 70% of the population of Palestine.

The crimes of settler gangs include a long list of terrorist acts, the simplest of which is uprooting olive trees and destroying Palestinian crops, to shooting unarmed Palestinian civilians, and attacking Palestinian cars on the roads with stones and bullets, to the most serious of which is attempting to burn and destroy entire towns, as happened in the town of Huwwara. south of Nablus, and the repeated terrorist attacks on the Palestinian community in Ein Samia, which resulted in a precedent that had not occurred since 1967 by forcing the residents of the community to leave their homes and leave for other areas.

Not a day goes by without Palestinian villages and towns, especially those adjacent to the lands confiscated by the settlements, being subjected to terrorist attacks. We have seen blatant examples of them in the burning of the Dawabsha family in the town of Duma in the Nablus region, and the burning of the Palestinian boy Muhammad Abu Khudair alive after he was kidnapped.

Last April alone, terrorist settler gangs attacked the villages of Deir Jarir, Deir Dibwan, Ras Karkar, Turmus Aya, Sinjil, al-Mughayyir, Imnizel, al-Laban al-Sharqiya, Mikhmas, al-Mazra’a al-Qibliyya, Kafr Qaddum, Hawara, Masafritta, Humsa in the Jordan Valley, Yarqa, and al-Qadisiyah. And the list goes on. This is in addition to the continuous attacks on the Old City of Hebron, where 25,000 of its residents are subject to continuous oppression and siege in favor of 500 illegal settlers in the city, and the settlement attacks supported by the occupation army against the city of Jerusalem and its surroundings, including the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque and attempts to Imposing Jewish prayers in it and dividing it temporally and spatially.

The Israeli Supreme Court did not hesitate to issue a decision to displace thousands of Palestinian residents of Masafer Yatta, to allocate their land to settler settlers. The website of the Israeli Human Rights Organization - B'Tselem, is filled with hundreds of videos and photos documenting settler attacks on Palestinians.

The colonial settlement expansion, along with the confiscation of lands, the demolition of Palestinian homes, and the deprivation of their right to live and build in Jerusalem and more than 62% of the area of ​​the West Bank called Area C, are parts of an integrated Zionist strategic plan that seeks, and dreams, to repeat the 1948 Nakba in The West Bank for the purpose of Judaizing it and annexing it to Israel. Israel's leaders, from Netanyahu to the fascists Smotrich and Ben Gvir, make no secret of their intentions on this matter.

However, the organization of the colonial settlers, who control about 400,000 weapons, into terrorist armed groups, and encouraging them to launch attacks on Palestinian cities and villages, under the protection and sponsorship of the occupation army, embodies a very sharp and dangerous transition to transform the idea of ​​ethnic cleansing again from a theoretical conception and plan into a practical application. tangible.

This escalation represents one of the biggest challenges facing the Palestinian national movement with all its components, in light of the continuous international silence and complicity, disgraceful double standards, and an Arab inability to effectively confront Israeli crimes.

This challenge can only be met with a unified Palestinian methodological strategy, based on the realization that we are in a stage of confrontation and escalating struggle with the Zionist movement, and we are not in a stage of compromise with it, after it renounced all agreements, threw them in the trash, and made what was called the process of “peace and negotiations.” A farce of nihilism.

Instead of continuing the internal Palestinian conflicts, bickering and divisions, and the absurd competition for positions in power under occupation, which will certainly be fertilized by settler attacks and their army in the end, the time has come to set aside all those differences and unite on a joint struggle-resistance approach to face the new threat of ethnic cleansing, as the occupation, the rulers of Israel, and the settlers The colonialists send every minute one message to the Palestinian people and the entire world, that they only understand the language of force, and they will not be deterred except by their resistance and confronting their plans. The most prominent form of deterrent force is for the Palestinian people to unite with all their components in a unified popular resistance to the settlers and their army.

History will not be merciful to those who are negligent in understanding this danger, or to those who fail to make every possible effort to address it.

The Mohjat al-Quds Foundation said, on Monday morning, "The prisoners of the Islamic Jihad movement are currently holding a sit-in in Al-Fura Square in the Negev prison."

She added in a statement to her, "The sit-in comes against the background of the prison administration arbitrarily isolating three prisoners, including the Emir of the Jihad Prisoners in Division 21, the prisoner Wissam Muhammad Mahmoud Abu Zaid."

The prisoners of "Jihad" demand an end to the isolation of the three prisoners and their return to the police stations.

The Hebrew newspaper Haaretz, published on Monday, revealed that it had obtained documents showing more failures and leadership and operational failures in dealing with the martyr Uday al-Tamimi when he carried out a shooting attack at the Shuafat checkpoint in October of last year.

The operation resulted in the dismissal of three members of the so-called "Border Police" after accusing them of having preferred not to enter into a clash with the martyr Tamimi, and not to act according to the instructions.

Al-Tamimi arrived at the checkpoint from the direction of Shuafat, and fired from a very short distance, killing a female soldier and seriously wounding a security guard. At that time, Al-Tamimi managed to escape to the camp, and none of the soldiers fired at him, which raised many questions about the behavior and behavior of the soldiers.

The newspaper says that whoever was chosen to investigate the incident, who is the commander of the region, should have examined his leadership behavior.

According to the documents obtained by the newspaper, it was found that the security guard who was at a nearby guard post recognized the martyr al-Tamimi and tried to shoot him, but he failed due to the fact that the window of the point was broken and that although the soldiers asked their commander to restore it, this was ignored.

The documents show that there is a state of failure and a major failure in the method of deployment of the soldiers as well as the infrastructure of the place to deal with the Palestinians, and that the commander of the checkpoint ignored these matters and the repeated demands of the soldiers.

During the investigations, the checkpoint commander said that it was not possible to prevent the attack due to lack of prior intelligence.

And the documents considered that there was another failure to allow Palestinians to exit their vehicles to prove their identities, which allowed Tamimi to get out of the vehicle and open fire.

It turned out that a group of Israeli soldiers were present at the site, and they were not involved in the investigation and their statements were heard.

Former police officers criticized the district commander for conducting the investigation himself, even though he was responsible for what happened. The Israeli police responded to the report by saying that the investigation was conducted in a transparent manner and lessons were learned.

New data showed the extent of the Israeli police's failure to combat crime among the Palestinians inside.

By the end of the current year 2023, the largest number of victims of crimes may be recorded, which has reached 102 since the beginning of the year, according to the Hebrew website Ynet.

According to the site, the information and data it obtained paints a bleak picture of the almost complete failure of the police to deal with the escalating crime, and its failure to solve the mystery of crimes compared to its solution among the Jews.

From the beginning of 2022 until April of this year, 75% of murders among Jews were solved, while the percentage reached only 19% among Palestinians inside.

The site says that the disparity in the number of murders is horrific, and increases the powerlessness of decision-makers.

Today, Monday morning, the head of the Israeli opposition, Yair Lapid, testifies before the District Court in Jerusalem as part of the trial of the current Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, in the case known to the media as Case 1000.

According to the Arabic-language Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation, Lapid's testimony will focus on the period of his assumption of the finance portfolio when he refused Netanyahu's request to extend the validity of the tax exemptions law for returnees from abroad with the aim of granting privileges to his friend, wealthy businessman Arnon Milchan, and reporting his income outside Israel to the income tax.

The Public Prosecution seeks, behind Lapid's testimony, to prove the charges against Netanyahu in this file about receiving gifts from Milchin.

According to the indictment, Milchan was the one who initiated contact with Finance Minister Yair Lapid at the time, through his lawyer, with a request authorizing the Minister of Finance to personally extend the tax exemption for returning residents for an additional ten years, as Milchin was then a returnee resident, but Lapid expressed his reservations about the request, explaining that he did not He intends to do this in order to give Milchin this privilege.

At dawn on Monday, an Israeli military force arrested a Palestinian youth who tried to cross the security barrier on the borders of the Gaza Strip.

According to an Israeli military spokesman, the young man was arrested at the borders of the central Gaza Strip, indicating that he did not have any weapons, and he was transferred for interrogation.

On Monday morning and dawn, the Israeli occupation forces launched a campaign of arrests and raids in separate areas of the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem.

In Bethlehem, the occupation forces arrested 3 young men, Maher Al-Walaji, Yazan Ayad, and Ibrahim Ayad, all from Dheisheh camp.

In Jenin, a young man was shot and dozens of others suffocated from poisonous gas, during the Israeli occupation forces stormed the town of Zababdeh.

In occupied Jerusalem, the occupation forces arrested the young Saddam Badwan, after they raided and searched his house in the town of Biddu.

Israeli differences emerged regarding the intervention of the Shin Bet General Security Service in the file of the escalating crimes since the beginning of the year among the Palestinians inside Israel.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held an emergency meeting to discuss the Shin Bet's intervention in this case, which is rapidly deteriorating, especially with the increase in the number of crimes in recent days.

According to a statement from Netanyahu's office, Netanyahu instructed preparations to integrate the "Shin Bet" in fighting this crime, and the formation of a team to study the issue, in light of the differences over the full integration of the agency in fighting crime.

The head of the Shin Bet, Ronen Bar, as well as the judicial advisor, Gali Biharav Mayara, opposed the full integration of the agency in dealing with these crimes, and warned that this might "harm democracy," while the so-called Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben Gvir, insisted on integrating the agency into the case. According to the Hebrew website, Ynet.

Gadi Eisenkot, former Chief of Staff of the Israeli army, and current member of the Knesset for the "National Camp", revealed a massive attack carried out by his forces while he was on top of his duties, in 2015, against ISIS in a neighboring country, which led to hundreds of deaths and injuries from the organization.

Eisenkot said during a session at the Institute for National Security Studies: The campaign against the Islamic State was intense and in more than one country, and its results in some places were beyond all imagination, in terms of the type of operations and attacks that were carried out, and some of the operations were carried out by various military units in the army, From the military forces, air force, special units and foreign relations.

He added: The phenomenon of ISIS took a turn for us in 2015, when an incident occurred in a specific place and we were asked to carry out an attack, and we carried out a relatively large attack and hit a large number of ISIS elements.

And he continued: There are not many countries in the world that know how to locate targets the size of a platform and put a missile at a target within a radius of 1,000 kilometers around Israel .. The Americans saw this, and those who know better the extent of the Israeli army's work throughout the Middle East are ISIS members because they are They paid the price of hundreds of dead and wounded, and they knew who was carrying out these operations.

And according to the Hebrew Channel 12, the estimates, according to the New York Times newspaper at the time, indicated attacks carried out by Israel in the Sinai at the request of Egypt, especially after the downing of the Russian plane by ISIS in 2015, and that the massive attack may have been the one that targeted hundreds of ISIS members after they attacked dozens of military sites. The Egyptian army and inflicted heavy losses on the latter.

On Sunday evening, an Israeli ministerial committee approved amendments to a bill aimed at collecting financial fines issued against Palestinians in the West Bank.

The Hebrew Channel 7 stated that the so-called Ministerial Committee for Legislative Affairs approved the draft law, which mainly concerns the collection of fines imposed by military courts in the West Bank to transfer them to the treasury of the Israeli government.

With the approval of the Ministerial Committee on the draft law, it will be referred later to the Knesset Plenum for a vote on it.
