FYI: As opposed to this maneuver by Netanyahu, the recent World Zionist Congress called for an "independent State Commission of Inquiry, headed by a Supreme Court judge", which is "essential for restoring public trust" (www.wzo.org.il/sub/39th-zio...). www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

This "delegitimizes the Palestinian Authority at a moment when its credibility, capacity, and international support are essential."

Don't let'em fool you: Katz is STILL saying the plan is for the IDF is to introduce "garinei Nachal" - IDF units that have been repeatedly used in the West Bank to first establish settlements as a military deployment before those locations were "civilianized". www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

And beyond the significant resolutions we passed, our coalition also secured expanded leadership roles in the World Zionist Organization and the other National Institutions for the next five years!

We're delighted to share just some of what we were able to accomplish at the recent World Zionist Congress in Jerusalem - thanks to the >11,000 votes we received and the strength it gave us, and ofc, thanks to the tireless work and coalition-building of our @hatikvahslate.bsky.social delegation!
