Israel wants more advanced US weapons to counter new sales to UAE
Defense Minister Benny Gantz was in Washington this week asking for an upgrade to maintain Israel’s regional military edge.
Defense Minister Benny Gantz was in Washington this week asking for an upgrade to maintain Israel’s regional military edge.
Gantz was never going to stop annexation, but his partnership with Netanyahu will now make it easier for the new government to move forward on it in a more effective way.
Gantz supports unilateral annexation, and he does not stop at the so-called “major settlement blocs.”
Gantz didn’t have the extra motivation to carry on the fight that Netanyahu does of using the prime minister’s position to avoid a criminal trial and, very likely, a prison sentence.
Bringing the Palestinian dominated Joint List into a governing coalition would finally put an end to Netanyahu’s reign but some Israeli MK’s don’t want anything to do with “the Arabs.”
