Smotrich claims ‘broad consensus’ in Israel against Palestinian state, calls on US to ‘wise up’

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich says there’s a “broad consensus” in Israel against the establishment of a Palestinian state, and that such a state would be “a push for the next massacre.”

In a post on X, the far-right minister says “Israel’s friends should understand that the push for the establishment of a Palestinian state is a push for the next massacre, God forbid, and [poses] a threat to the existence of the State of Israel.”

The White House, he says, must “wise up on the concepts that led to [this] national disaster in Israel.”
