The circle of protest against Israel's aggressive policies toward the Palestinians is widening in Europe. The war of extermination, forced displacement, and settlement waged by Netanyahu's government has pushed major European countries to adopt firmer positions. The French president's speech at the United Nations was an example of this tangible shift. Britain went further, with measures banning the import of products from illegal settlements. On top of that, it adopted a new, sharply worded political discourse toward the conduct of Israel's extremist government, one that is clearer and firmer in support of the Palestinian people's legitimate rights. The tone of the British foreign secretary in his latest appearance was unprecedented in its sharpness and courage.
Government services are no longer difficult to access, draining your time and effort and fraying your nerves amid suffocating traffic congestion. The matter has become easier than we ever imagined, and the coming days, months, and years carry astonishing surprises for people with the developments occurring in artificial intelligence models.
The debate between Lieberman, leader of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, and Netanyahu and his hardline peers like Smotrich and Ben-Gvir, sums up the logic dominating the orientations of most of the Israeli right, not only toward the West Bank, but toward Jordan as well. The first camp sees the solution in a Jordanian role in governing the West Bank, what's traditionally known as the "Jordanian option." The second adopts annexation as the only option, and its logic inevitably leads to forced displacement, that is, the "alternative homeland."
King Abdullah II’s speech at the United Nations General Assembly marked a political high point that Jordan’s position has never reached before.
A little over a month separates us from the date of the Israeli Knesset elections. The available weekly opinion poll results indicate that Netanyahu trails his rival for the premiership, Eisenkot, by several points. His electoral coalition will also fail to secure the majority needed to form a government.
The military cooperation agreement Jordan signed with France last Thursday, during King Abdullah II's visit to Paris, is the third such agreement Jordan has signed with a European country within two weeks. Paris's agreement was preceded by Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi signing two similar agreements with Austria and the Netherlands.
It all began with President Trump speaking to people in his inner circle about “something much bigger” being prepared for the Middle East. Shortly afterward, media leaks began circulating about a plan for wide-ranging arrangements in the region once the war with Iran ends.
The government is entering its third year in office, alongside the House of Representatives, without the rumors that have followed them in the past regarding the departure of the former or the dissolution of the latter. It also appears that the current composition of the Senate will remain unchanged.
For large segments of younger generations, what happened on September 11, 2001, is comparable to what World War II meant to our generation. A quarter of a century has passed since the destruction of the Twin Towers in New York and the attack on the Pentagon, a symbol of American military power.
Years have passed since the "podcast" trend first appeared in the West, and in the United States in particular: audio and video programs over the internet that let the listener or viewer choose the time that suits them to follow along.
