Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz offered an unusually blunt clarification of Israel’s position as it negotiates with the Trump administration, stating plainly that there will not be a Palestinian state.
“Israel’s policy is clear: no Palestinian state will be established,” Katz wrote on X.
The Defense Minister further stated the IDF will remain on the Syrian side of Mount Hermone and within the northern security buffer of Lebanon, while Gaza will is cleared “to the last tunnel.” Hamas, he added, will be fully disarmed either by an international force or by Israel itself.
Will Israel continue to hold firm?
The Jerusalem Post reported, “Katz and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will reject – certainly for the foreseeable future – any concrete attempts to establish a Palestinian state. This is their top priority, even though no one can predict what will happen in 2027 with the next government.”
Here’s my take.
It is good for Israel to set its own boundaries while the rest of the world wishes to carve up the land. The nations of the world should tread lightly when it comes to dividing God’s land.
In Joel 3:1-2, God warns, “For behold, in those days and at that time, When I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; And I will enter into judgment with them there On account of My people, My heritage Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; They have also divided up My land.”
