Assessment in Jerusalem: No decision will be taken today regarding the application of sovereignty due to the delay in the establishment of the government • The Union parliament condemns Palestinian incitement in textbooks

The delay in establishing a new government in Israel is expected to help it on Friday at the EU Foreign Ministers meeting. The meeting, which will be held digitally, is expected to address, among other things, the possibility that Israel will apply the law in the Jordan Valley and settlement in the Judea and Samaria.

On the other hand, Israeli friendship, including Hungary, the Czech Republic, and Germany, argued that there was no reason to hurry as it is not at all clear whether sovereignty will be implemented. 

The postponement of the establishment of the government for Sunday, as well as the fog surrounding the US position, strengthened the friends of Israel who warned of haste. Therefore, officials in the Union and in Israel estimate that foreign ministers will not make a decision today regarding Israel. "To make a decision on sovereignty today means to make a theoretical decision on a theoretical move that will make a theoretical government," a European diplomat familiar with the details said. 

In the meantime, strikes for Palestinians in Europe just before sovereignty. Last night, the European Parliament largely condemned the incitement against Israel and the Jews in Palestinian Authority textbooks. 

The European Parliament is considered a traditional stronghold of Palestinians, but a number of organizations, led by the Impact C Research Institute, as well as the Allent Association for Strengthening Israel-Europe Relations, have in recent years worked to present to MPs incitement to murder Israelis in the PA's education system. 

This week there was a vote on the outcome of which was published yesterday, on whether to condemn the PA for incitement. In the central decision, 60 percent voted for the condemnation (402 for, 263 against, 13 abstentions). Members of the European Parliament have also expressed concern about the use of European taxpayer funds to finance the curriculum in the PA, as long as they include incitement to violence and terrorism. It should be noted that about a year ago, the Union Foreign Office appointed a commission of inquiry into the matter, but this has not yet published its findings.

Marcus Scheff, CEO of Impact C, said in response that "there should now be a moment of truth for the EU. Will he continue to ignore parliament overseeing his spending? "Eric Agassi, vice president of the Impact C Institute, added:" This is a huge warning sign for the Palestinian Authority from its closest friend. "

MP Christian Guinea, of the Renewal Party, said: "I believe that under no circumstances should I, even indirectly, agree that European aid money will go to encourage violence." 

In the meantime, a group of European MPs, representatives of the largest factions in Parliament, are demanding that the European Commissioner for Foreign Affairs, Joseph Burrell, launch an investigation against the EU envoy in the Palestinian Authority after he succumbed to the pressure of the Palestinians and abolished funding restrictions for civilian organizations related to terrorist activities .
