The young settlement representative in the Jewish State rejects the agreement reached last night (between Thursday and Friday) between Prime Minister-designate Netanyahu and the chairman of Otzma Yehudit, Itamar Ben Gabir, on the establishment of a directorate within the Ministry for the Development of the Negev and the Galilee.
The agreement between the parties states that "the director of planning in the Ministry of Negev and Galilee Development and Social Resilience will be responsible for carrying out the regulation of all young settlements in Judea and Samaria in accordance with the decisions of a team of ministers headed by the Prime Minister."
However, the young settlement itself rejects the arrangement and says that it is a blind eye that will not lead to a solution to the problems.
"Someone should stand up and say the king is naked," they say.
"It's frustrating. A week before the elections, Netanyahu came to Givat Harel and signed a commitment, and now it turns out that it was only a signature on paper. Now the Likud is running away from the details, and this is no coincidence. Netanyahu is distancing himself from settlements and prefers to go to Ben Gabir, who talks about governance in the Negev and the Galilee, and to Deri, who talks about weak populations."

In recent days, the officials say, there has been a disconnect between Likud and religious Zionism, because Smotrich insists on talking about substance and not about headlines.
"Smotrich was not born today. He knows that you need to get powers to regulate the young settlement. How will you do it without the Ministry of Defense and the Supreme Planning Directorate? Netanyahu is taking advantage of the inexperience of Otzma Yehudit and selling them a story. Ben Gabir does not understand what it really means to regulate the young settlement".
"Netanyahu is not breaking away from Smotrich right now, but from the settlement. It's time to decide where he is and make decisions accordingly. Not as a headline without cover, but with actions on the ground," they added.
An official in the young settlement told "Israel Hayom" that "this agreement is an empty envelope. We already had the series committee and there was a Wallerstein team and a lot of headlines and nothing happened. Because the powers are in the civil administrator, and only in him. If there is no change in the administrator, nothing dear".
According to him, "Smotrich is more experienced than Ben Gvir, he knows history and therefore insists with Netanyahu on accepting the Civil Administration. Ben Gvir bought Netanyahu's promises and fell into the trap. Through him, there will be no series, and Netanyahu paints Smotrich as supposedly stubborn, even though He is right".

In an official announcement on behalf of the Young Settlement Headquarters, it was stated that "We would like to thank Otzma Yehudit, who also came together to put the settlement of the Young Settlement on the table. But the settlement plan requires the synchronized work of all the branches of the Civil Administration. The agreement signed tonight may produce another toothless external administration as already was in the past
The Young Settlement Forum demands from all future coalition partners that a government will not be established without introducing the aforementioned change and without clear milestones and budgets in the coalition agreements."
