I led Israel’s oldest peace group and advised the Knesset. Netanyahu may fall on Tuesday, but the West Bank annexation policies won’t
Israel's upcoming election may not alter its policies, as many parties avoid clear stances on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The previous coalition maintained the status quo despite ideological differences, leading to continued settlement expansion. Current developments, particularly in E1, threaten Palestinian state viability and require active intervention from any new government. The far-right's influence has entrenched Israeli control, complicating potential reversals. Future coalitions must prioritize halting annexation and addressing international concerns over settlements. Without explicit commitments, politicians may inadvertently support policies they oppose, risking the establishment of an undemocratic state.
