Certainly, I view the Prime Minister's comments as more do to with the general elections that are due to take place in November, and an attempt to win over some Arab voices or voters living in Israel to try to secure his tenure in office. The Minister outlined all of the breaches of international law and the flagrant human rights violations, including the murder of journalists and the raid on the six civil society NGOs. We see the continued arbitrary detention of thousands of Palestinians, the expansion of illegal settlement expansions on a daily basis, forced evictions and demolitions, all continuing under the watch of the EU and the international community. What pressure is being brought to bear to ensure that the words of the Israeli Prime Minister are actually put into action?
