Prime Minister Bennett claims that there are no negotiations on a Palestinian state, so why are Ministers Farij and Gantz working to raise funds for the PA?


Last week, Prime Minister Naftali Bennett took the floor in the Knesset and declared: "There are no political negotiations for the establishment of a terrorist state in the heart of the country."

Bennett is required to make the announcement because members of the opposition insist there are negotiations over a Palestinian state. According to Smutrich, Bennett's government is establishing a terrorist Palestinian state in the heart of the country.


You should check who is right. A donors' conference for the Palestinian Authority opened in Oslo on Wednesday. The conference was established after the initial signing of the Oslo Accords in 1993, it convenes twice a year and its purpose is twofold. Firstly, it is intended to finance the establishment and operation of mechanisms and institutions in the PA that will form the basis for a Palestinian state. And secondly, it is supposed to fund projects that will lead to the development of the Palestinian economy


. In 2011, $ 1.3 billion was donated, compared to just $ 500 million last year. This year the amount to be transferred will amount to only $ 184 million. Most European aid to the PA is frozen due to investigations by the EU authorities and its member states. These investigations have shown that about 40 percent of the funds have not reached their destination, and other investigations have shown a direct link between European donations and funding Palestinian terrorism.


Arab countries have also greatly reduced donations.

Last year, Arab countries completely stopped transferring their budgets to the PA. Since the beginning of 2021, the total donations from Arab countries amounted to $ 32 million, while in the corresponding period in 2019, 265 million were transferred.


The Trump administration canceled US donations to the PA after the enactment of the Taylor Force Act in 2018, which prohibits the transfer of funds as long as it continues to pay salaries to terrorists in prisons and families of killed terrorists.

For a decade, Netanyahu's governments have worked tirelessly to reduce these contributions.


The main claim of the left, which has been at the heart of the Oslo Accords since the 1990s, is that the PLO can be supported in its arms and counter-terrorism fought at the same time.

If you want to prevent Palestinian terrorism, you must not give money and legitimacy to the PLO, the architect of Palestinian terrorism.


Also, if you want to prevent the establishment of a terrorist state, you must not give money to the PLO, which invests the money transferred to it in building the military, political and economic infrastructure of such a state. The PA.

They have also acted against European governments and proved to them - even when they did not want to hear - that the authority is corrupting and stealing their donations, and in addition, is financing terrorism with these financial means.


Do not come to Washington with complaints


Today, as part of the "no political process", the Bennett-Lapid government is dismantling all the achievements of the government in recent years, as part of the campaign to prevent the intensification of Palestinian terrorism on the one hand and the blockade of a Palestinian state on the other. The Minister of Regional Cooperation, Issawi Frij, heads the Israeli delegation in Oslo. He arrived there before the official opening of the conference to work with PA Prime Minister Muhammad a-Shtiya to persuade Europeans, Arab states and Americans to pledge $ 1 billion a year in PA grants - not including emergency aid to the Hamas regime in Gaza.


And Frige is not alone. Defense Minister Bnei Gantz is leading the recruitment campaign. According to a report in Haaretz, Ganz sent the head of the Defense Ministry's Political and Security Division, Zohar Felti, to Washington, asking government officials to press Arab and European governments to increase their contributions to the PA and promote major projects for the Palestinian economy.


These efforts not only enhance the PA supporting and sponsoring terrorism, they also omit the ground under any future Israeli argument against the transfer of funds to terrorists Palestinians.


Israel can not complain that promote anti-Israeli members of Congress today bill that would allow the reopening of representatives Fire " In Washington (which was closed as part of the implementation of the Taylor Force Law) and the renewal of PA funding despite its support for terrorism; this is because Israel is asking the Americans to inject money into the PA that supports terrorism in violation of the Force Law.


Actual assistance for the establishment of a state


Also on the ground, the government is promoting the establishment of a Palestinian terrorist state.

The meaning of issuing building permits to Palestinians in Area C is to turn all Israeli localities in Judea and Samaria into enclaves exposed at a given moment of attack. Construction also turns Jerusalem, Kfar Saba and Kfar Yona into the new Gaza Envelope.


Prime Minister A-Shtiya, who has the full backing of Magnz and Farage in Oslo, told Fatah deputies in the summer that the Jews are not connected to the people of Israel, they are Khazars. At the Glasgow conference, he invented a new blood libel, appropriate for the event, and blamed Israeli settlement in Judea and Samaria for environmental destruction. United boss Mahmoud Abbas said at a UN conference in September that Israel has one year to evacuate Judea and Samaria and a united Jerusalem to establish a Palestinian state; if not, the PA will remove its recognition of the existence of Israel. Give us Judea and Samaria and Jerusalem, or we will go to war to destroy you.


The abandonment of the struggle against the establishment of a Palestinian state and the actual provision of assistance for the establishment of such a state by Bennett and his colleagues in the government do not lead to any political change.

Although the Biden administration is happy to ignore a force majeure and fund the PA in its terrorist arms, the administration does not cool its hostility to Israel in the wake of the political flip-flops of Lapid, Bennett and Gantz. On the contrary. In the "right of return" of the Palestinians to the territories of the State of Israel.

So while the Israeli government supports the infrastructure of a Palestinian state, the US administration is debating whether it supports the continued existence of the State of Israel.


A political process is not just glittering meetings of high-level delegations in luxurious hotels.

Is also what is happening now.

The Bennett government is promoting the establishment of a Palestinian state in the heart of the country through funding, construction and legitimacy, while dismantling all the political achievements against the PA, which previous Israeli governments have achieved through a 12-year Sisyphean effort.


The main achievement was the reduction of the damage caused in the catastrophic Oslo process.

It will take many, many years to undo the political and economic setbacks caused by the Bent Lapid government within a few months.
