Witkoff Plan Omits Palestinian De-Radicalization in Judea and Samaria

US envoy Steve Witkoff’s 21 point plan appears to have been written in haste, carelessly and omits the most important aspect, namely de-radicalization in Judea and Samaria and not only in the Gaza Strip.  Furthermore, the PA cannot be offered a state without prior comprehensive de-radicalization, including discrediting of all Jew hatred whether Anti-Judaism (againstContinue reading “Witkoff Plan Omits Palestinian De-Radicalization in Judea and Samaria”

The EU Imposes Master-Slave Morality & Utilitarianism on the Jews
