Defiant Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu doubled down on opposition to Palestinian statehood, deepening the divide with Israel’s closest international allies, as cracks in his wartime “unity” government became increasingly evident.

Anger with Netanyahu is also increasingly visible on the streets, even though there is broad public support for the war. On Saturday, protesters gathered in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Caesarea and Kfar Saba, some calling for bolder action to secure the release of hostages, and others demanding the prime minister step down.

One in Jerusalem held a placard that read: “Mothers’ cry: we will not sacrifice our children in the war to save the rightwing.”

    Thanks for the explanation.

    Let me rephrase my comment:

    Netanyahu is doing the right move by putting his country’s security above all by delaying the establishment of Palestinian state or sovereignty.

    I didn’t advocate for Palestinian demolish.

    This is why I didn’t agree with the above post sophisticated “flipped logic” comment.

    I’ll state again: Palestinians don’t look for peace nor a state. They look to undo the what so called “Nakba”, a thing that will happen as long as Israel exists.
