Even some Israeli media outlets have referred to the new
cabinet as the most rightwing during the entity’s decades-long history.
Israel,
as a colonialist regime, has always been viewed as an extremist right-wing
occupation committing atrocities and Palestinian do not see much difference
between any Israeli cabinets over the past seven decades.
All the regime's cabinets have committed crimes against
humanity that included war crimes, genocide, the mass slaughter of children,
the ongoing ethnic cleansing campaign along with so many other violations of
international law.
However, the newly formed Netanyahu cabinet is perhaps the
most extreme and right-wing and that's according to Israel’s leftist parties
who are afraid that it will result in an increased number of retaliatory
operations by the Palestinians.
A member of Israel’s own Knesset admitted that the
occupation, under the rule of Netanyahu and his extremist cabinet, is moving
toward a full-fledged fascist state.
The remarks were made during an Israeli settler protest
outside the Knesset in strong opposition to the return of Netanyahu who has
been Israel's longest-ever serving Prime Minister.
The truth is Israel has always held a fascist ideology but
it is now under the rule of a more extreme and fascist ideology. The regime has
given the powers of governance to war criminals and extremists because Israel
has never been so weak and vulnerable as it is at the moment.
It has been exposed because of the unprecedented armed
resistance that has been emerging from the occupied West Bank this year.
Such is the extent of the resistance; Israel has turned to
Netanyahu, the war criminal and a person that is facing multiple corruption
charges along with a coalition that is so extreme that it has called for the
expulsion of all Palestinians from their native land and the execution of
Palestinian prisoners.
Netanyahu was forced to bring in these fascist figures
because he wanted to secure a majority that can bring him back to power and
save him from corruption charges.
In other words, the war criminal does not care for the
safety of Israeli settlers which is something that is very concerning for
Israelis who are planning on leaving the occupied Palestinian territories in
their droves, according to surveys.
There are now Israelis protesting against the new cabinet,
for the first time in history, because of new ministers in an office such as
Itamar Ben-Gvir who has made so many disturbing and racist statements that even
Israel’s allies are concerned.
The most extreme and right-wing fascist cabinet in history
will put Israel at odds with large parts of the Israeli public, and concern
Israel's closest allies while escalating tensions with the Palestinians.
Reports indicate that some elements of the new Israeli cabinet
are so extreme that the administration of US President Joe Biden will not deal
with them as they feel uncomfortable with such elements.
Netanyahu's incoming hardline government will place illegal
West Bank settlement expansion at the top of its agenda and had already pledged
to legalize dozens of illegally built outposts and annex the occupied territory
as part of its coalition deal with ultranationalist allies.
Some members of the new cabinet squat on illegal settlements
themselves, in a sign that there will be a major push in the future toward
expanding settler units, despite the fact they are considered illegal under
international law.
But experts say the newly formed West Bank resistance groups
will expand their armed operations in the face of further settlement expansion,
which comes alongside Israeli demolitions of Palestinian homes.
The new cabinet members also support the Israeli settlers
storming of the al-Aqsa Mosque compound, something Palestinians have said is a
red line.
There is no doubt this will represent a new escalation in
occupied al-Quds (Jerusalem) next year and the wider occupied West Bank as well
as inside the occupied Palestinian territories.
Some Palestinian analysts say they are glad the new Israeli
government is in power because it represents the real face of the regime in
front of the international community.
Meanwhile, Palestinians have welcomed a vote by the United
Nations General Assembly to ask the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to
deliver a widespread opinion on the legal consequences of Israel's occupation
of the Palestinian territories.
"The time has come for Israel to be a state subject to
law, and to be held accountable for its ongoing crimes against our
people," said Nabil Abu Rudeineh, a senior Palestinian official based in
the occupied West Bank.
In a social media post, another senior official Hussein
al-Sheikh said that the vote "reflects the victory of Palestinian
diplomacy."
The United Nations General Assembly has passed a resolution
calling on the ICJ to give an opinion on Israel’s illegal occupation of
Palestine.
The General Assembly voted 87 to 26 with 53 abstentions on
the resolution, with Western nations split but with virtually unanimous support
in the Islamic world – including among Arab states that have normalized
relations with Israel.
Russia and China also voted in favor of the resolution.
