NETANYAHU DANGEROUS ESCALATION


worried reactions followed on Wednesday in Arab capitals, following the promise by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to partially annex the occupied West Bank in the event of re-election.

 Netanyahu promised, if he was re-elected, to annex to the State of Israel "the Jordan Valley and the northern part of the Dead Sea". The Jordan Valley accounts for about 30% of the West Bank, a Palestinian territory occupied by Israel since 1967.

 "This announcement is a dangerous development and a new Israeli aggression that declares its intention to violate international law," responded the heads of diplomacy of member states of the Arab League.

 In their statement, they also assured that the proposed annexation "would undermine the chances of progress in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process."

 The ministers also reiterated the Arab position of support for "the legitimate and inalienable rights of the Palestinians", including that of establishing a state along the 1967 borders and with East Jerusalem as the capital.

 Realized, this promise "will entail the whole region in the violence", added the head of the Jordanian diplomacy, Aymane Safadi.

 Guardian of the Muslim holy places in East Jerusalem - Palestinian head of the occupied city and annexed since 1967 by Israel - Jordan is the only Arab country with Egypt to have concluded a peace treaty with Israel in 1994.

 On Wednesday morning, the Syrian regime accused Israel of "expansionism".

 "The announcement of Netanyahu comes within the framework of the expansionist nature of the colonizing entity," said a "source" quoted by the official agency Sana.

 - "Dangerous climbing", according to Ryad -

 In Ryad, Mr. Netanyahu's promise has been described as a "dangerous escalation," according to the SPA agency citing the royal court.

 Saudi Arabia has called for an "emergency meeting" of foreign ministers of 57 members of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).

 The Saudi kingdom has also called on the international community to "condemn and reject the Netanyahu statement and consider any action resulting from this promise as nil".

 "Such a prospect would be devastating for the possibility of relaunching negotiations, regional peace and the very essence of a two-state solution", Israel and Palestine, said UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric.

                         لماذا نحن هنا؟ Information is an important element in the world we live in. Fake news leads us to believe the opposite of reality. In a Middle Eastern region where the bloody war in Gaza continues, it is important to report the truth; the genocide and Israeli crimes against the Palestinian people, as well as the situation in Syria. This is what we do at ARABINFOCUS. We have therefore humbly asked for donations from members of the HH Arab Royal Houses; from His Highnesses Emirs and from important Muslim personalities who have the financial means to make a donation. We have asked them for a simple donation. Only one anonymous Saudi helped us. All the others have ignored us and have not given us even  a dinar.  Why this ignorance against ARABINFOCUS? Our fight against Jewish Zionism deserved help. But a HH Crown Prince; HH sheikhs; HH emirs;  Prime ministers; all have scorned us, instea...

          IS FOOTBALL MORE IMPORTANT THAN ARABIC CULTURE? Qatar and Saudi Arabia have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in hiring top-class soccer players in Europe to elevate and give greater prestige to their national championships in this sport. Football is a global distraction and, therefore, there is nothing to criticize about these operations. It is absolutely normal and correct that the two Arab countries have made that expense. But this situation moves us to ask some questions: 1.- Soccer is more important than the values of the culture of the Arab Nation. ? 2.-Is Soccer more important than reporting and condemning Israel's criminal aggressions against the Palestinian people? 3.-Is Soccer more important than defending Islam and its values and teachings, when it is being subjected to unfair attacks from some Western countries? 4.- Is Soccer more important than explaining and defending the values of the holy book of the Quran, subject of attacks, de...

                ONE HUNDRED KILLED IN THE ATTACK ON A SCHOOL IN GAZA Genocide and war crimes continue in Gaza, although Prime Minister Netanyahu says he is willing to resume peace negotiations. In the attack on a school this Friday, 100 Palestinians died, some of whom are women and children. Israel justified the missile attack, stating that the school served as a refuge for Hamas militants, but has not presented the slightest evidence to justify the version of the Jewish armed forces. It's the same old story. Every time Israel attacks a school, a hospital or a refugee camp, it justifies it by claiming that those places were used by the military branch of Hamas. But don't look for proof because there isn't any. The school attacked with missiles was Al-Tabin, in the Daraj area, in the capital of the Palestinian enclave. The school was completely destroyed. Meanwhile, the Palestinian and Lebanese populations continue to wait for the announced attack ...
