After Trump’s Golan Heights Announcement, Israeli Politicians Now Pushing for US Recognition of West Bank as “Israeli”

In 2016, longtime Trump advisor, and current ambassador to Israel, David Friedman, said Trump would recognize Israel’s sovereignty over the entire West Bank if Israel “deemed it necessary.”


TEL AVIV, ISRAEL — After U.S. President Donald Trump announced that he planned to unilaterally recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights — which is internationally recognized as Syrian territory — some powerful Israeli politicians are now petitioning Trump to also recognize Israeli sovereignty over Palestine’s occupied West Bank.

Please, sir, may we have some more?

Following Trump’s announcement via Twitter regarding the Golan Heights, Israeli MK Bezalel Smotrich, a senior Israeli politician and deputy speaker of Israel’s parliament, stated, also on Twitter:

For 52 years, we’ve also been thriving in Judea/Samaria [Israeli name for the West Bank of Palestine]. Also of critical strategic, historic and security importance. It is time that we recognize our sovereignty. With God’s help we’ll move this forward soon, and hope for your [i.e., Trump’s] support then, as well.”

Smotrich’s tweet likely highlighted the West Bank’s alleged “critical strategic, historic and security importance” to Israel because Trump justified his upcoming recognition of the Golan Heights as Israeli by stating that the Golan Heights have a “critical strategic and security importance to the State of Israel and Regional Stability [sic].”


Whether Trump would entertain yet another Israeli request for unilateral recognition of illegally held territory — such as the West Bank — is a matter of debate. While it is known that Trump’s largest political donor — Zionist billionaire Sheldon Adelson — was responsible for the Jerusalem move, it is not known if Adelson had a hand in Trump’s recent decision to recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights.

As long as MAGA's Israeli (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?532681-Trump-says-it-s-time-for-US-to-recognize-Israel-s-Sovereignty-over-the-Golan-Heights&p=6770884&viewfull=1#post6770884) American family members, politicians don't push for it, it's very unlikely to happen.
Hopefully they're not trying to extort any Amercan politicians thinking that they helped their election in the US or protection from overzealous special counsels, not gonna work.

Interesting. Adding all of this territory with Arab or non-Jewish residents could be a problem in the future at the polls. So now the moves to limit citizenship and voting in Israel make sense.

These Israeli politicians may be paving the way for Israel no longer being a Jewish state.

Free speech is paramount but this meme also denigrates two bold leaders funded by top leadership of America-First MAGA movement.

Why not? It was acquired during the same war and a peace agreement was signed with Jordan in 1994 seceding control of the West bank to Israel. It is already under Israel's sovereignty, more so than the Golan Heights. All that is required is for people to acknowledge and accept the reality.
