Worth also mentioning in context of Israel-UK defence ties that the tiny amount of security-related purchases in the UK some now suspended, far less important than intelligence-sharing, military cooperation and UK purchases (in billions) of Israeli arms. All of which continuing

Literally minutes after Biden said a hostage ceasefire deal is “very close.” Maybe the only thing worse than the Netanyahu governments actions is the Biden administrations inactions.

Of course, the West Bank does not exist on Netanyahu's map. And Gaza is the forever Israeli enclave. This speech will go down in history as Netanyahu's open admission to that world that Israel will remain between the river and the sea indefinitely, as long as he rules.

“You have a government whose senior ministers are settlers, and not just settlers, but settlers that represent the radical hilltop youth, the kind of settlers who want to annex the entire West Bank," Mairav Zonszein מרב זונשיין explained: nationaljournal.com/s/726060/risin…

Israelis have been protesting in huge numbers for four days in a row, including at least half a million just on Sunday. But that is simply not going to cut it. It won’t change Netanyahus mind. And it along can’t bring down the coalition.

Israelis protesting in front of Ron Dermer’s house in west Jerusalem. He is Netanyahus closest aide and recently said at a cabinet meeting “the prime minister can do whatever he wants.”

You don’t need two guys nobody has ever heard of to implicate Israel and Israeli society in major offences against the Palestinian people.
