“We will keep Jerusalem united, whole, and under Israeli sovereignty,” Netanyahu said.
„Jerusalem, our eternal capital, was reunited 58 years ago in the Six-Day War. It will never be divided again,” he added.

Thousands Demand End to Gaza War and Occupation at Jerusalem ‘Peace Summit’
“This is exactly how fascism works. It pursues the opposition, and the opposition, frightened, rushes to sacrifice us all.” Odeh likened the panicked mother to the anti-Netanyahu opposition, which he claimed gave up on peace with the Palestinians, and soon after, on partnership with Arab-Palestinian leadership in Israel.
“I want to put before you a crucial proposition — the historic role of Arab citizens. Without us, it is possible to build a dictatorship, but without us, it is impossible to build a democracy,” he said. “Even during this excruciating and bloody war, Jews and Arabs — you all — continued to have faith in each other and believed that only together we can win,” he continued, invoking the well-known wartime slogan. “Without us, you can build a dictatorship, but you can’t build a democracy. Without us, you can keep fighting wars but can’t make peace. Our fates are intertwined, and only together, Jews and Arabs, Israelis and Palestinians, can build the lives and future our children deserve.”
ועידת השלום: בזמן ג‘נוסייד, אסור לשמאל לברוח לאזורי הנוחות
דברים אלה אינם נכתבים מתוך ניכור, ואני באמת מלאת הערכה למארגני הוועידה ולמשתתפיה הרבים. אין בי צל של ספק באשר לכוונות הטובות שלהם, ולרצון הכן לפעול למען שינוי המציאות הארורה הזו. אבל בשעה שאנשים מורעבים למוות במחנה ההשמדה שישראל יצרה בעזה, השמאל הישראלי חייב לצאת מאזור הנוחות שלו.
סדנאות של דיאלוג, דיונים על קדושתה של ירושלים, תפילות בין-דתיות ופאנלים על פתרונות מדיניים בימים של השמדה הם אנכרוניזם תלוש. פעילות מכוח האינרציה היא פריבילגיה שאנחנו לא יכולים להרשות לעצמנו מול המראות מעזה. בשביל לשנות את המציאות, צריך קודם כל להכיר בה כהווייתה ולכנות אותה בשמה המפורש. אם בכל הוועידה הזו אין אפילו פאנל אחד שעוסק בג‘נוסייד המתחולל ברגעים אלה ממש, לא כל שכן קריאה מפורשת לסירוב לקחת בו חלק, ספק אם היא תקדם אותנו אפילו בצעד לקראת השינוי שהיא מבקשת לקדם.
What a ‘peace summit’ reveals about the state of the Israeli left
To be clear, these words are not written out of cynicism; I truly hold deep appreciation for the organizers of the conference and its many participants. I have no doubt of their good intentions and sincere commitment to changing our horrific reality. Yet as Israel systematically starves people in Gaza’s extermination camp, the Israeli left can no longer remain in its comfort zone.
What good are dialogue workshops, discussions about the sanctity of Jerusalem, interfaith prayers, or panels on political solutions while a genocide rages? These are privileged distractions we can no longer afford. To transform reality, we must first stare directly at its horrors and name them without flinching. If this conference cannot even convene a single panel on Gaza’s genocide, much less demand an end to complicity in it, how can it hope to drive the change it claims to pursue?

Palestinian worker succumbs to wounds at construction site in Jerusalem

MK Cassif: Occupied West Bank Refugee Camps in Serious Threat of Total Destruction
MK Ofer Cassif (Hadash), warned Al Jazeera in an interview that the Palestinian refugee camps in the occupied West Bank are “in serious threat of total destruction.” “We saw in the last few days that both the refugee camp in Jenin and the refugee camp in Tulkarem are under a serious threat of total destruction and yet again another expulsion of Palestinian people from there,” he told Al Jazeera, saying this has nothing with security.
“I’m also afraid that this has been done in purpose by the Israeli government in order to foil the ceasefire in Gaza — that’s the reason I’m so worried,” Cassif added, appealing to countries in the region to not “leave behind your brothers and sisters in Palestine.” “Don’t leave the Palestinians who’ve been butchered for more than one year by the Israeli government, that should have been stopped months ago,” he said.
An Entire Palestinian Neighborhood in East Jerusalem Stands to Be Erased
Twenty-three homes were demolished last year in the community of Al-Bustan, Silwan and almost every house in the neighborhood—home to about 1,500 residents —faces the risk of demolition. In their place, the state and municipality are planning to establish a settler touristic park, as part of a broader process of taking control of Silwan and transforming it into a Jewish Israeli space—to the extent that an innocent passerby would not notice that this is part of occupied East Jerusalem and that Palestinian residents were displaced for this project to be built.

Israel jails Grayzone’s Jeremy Loffredo, releases him pending investigation
Israeli soldiers arrested the Jewish-American reporter and three other journalists at a checkpoint in the West Bank on October 8. According to one of the jailed reporters, @the_andrey_x, the soldiers blindfolded them tightly, roughed them up, drawing guns on them at one point, and hauled them off to detention in Jerusalem.
“The soldiers… illegally requested that the journalists hand in their phones, and when they refused, the soldiers pointed a gun at one of the journalists, hit him with their hands and the barrel of a gun, then dragged him out of the car and slammed him onto the concrete. When lying on the ground, they pointed 2 guns at his head. The rest of the journalists exited the car and the military raided it, confiscating phones, cameras, and personal items,” said @the_andrey_x.
Andrey recalled that in the course of abusing the journalists, “The soldiers told the female Israeli photographer that she should have been raped by Hamas.”
While Loffredo’s colleagues were released after 11 hours, the “Judea and Samaria” division of the Israeli police opened an investigation into Loffredo for supposedly “aiding the enemy in a time of war.”

Friend or foe? Russia’s West Jerusalem consulate is very worrying
(29.08.2023)
It is also possible, in fact, true, that Russia‘s foreign policy towards Israel and Palestine at the present time is entirely motivated by Russian priorities.
This means that Moscow cannot be taken for granted as a Palestinian ally, and an outright recognition by Moscow of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is not entirely off the table.

In der Küstenmetropole Tel Aviv verlangten die Teilnehmer einer Kundgebung das sofortige Ende des Gaza-Krieges, um die noch mehr als 100 Geiseln in der Gewalt von Hamas-Terroristen im Gazastreifen freizubekommen. „Stellt die Kämpfe ein, bezahlt den Preis!“, zitierten israelische Medien einen der Redner, dessen Cousin unter den Geiseln ist. (…)

‘No Pain like Mine’: The Story of Palestinian Prisoner Israa’ Ja’abis
On the day of the accident, October 11, 2015, Israa’ drove from Jericho to Al-Quds in a small car that was overflowing with household items. She was moving to Jerusalem with her son, Mu’tasim, and, by transporting some of the small furniture, she had hoped to save on moving expenses. (…)
One of the items that Israa’ carried with her was a propane tank for the kitchen. It would have been too expensive to buy a brand new one in Jerusalem. As she was leaving Jericho, the engine of her car died twice. Young people in the town warned her to turn around and find another form of transportation, but she did not heed their advice. She needed to get to Jerusalem to her new job at a nursing home. Each time her car died, the engine emitted a burning smell.
After travelling a couple of kilometers outside the Israeli Al-Za’ayem military checkpoint, near the illegal Jewish settlement of Ma’ale Adumim and a short distance east of Al-Quds, Israa’s car died again. No soldiers or army vehicles were in sight. A while later, a retired Israeli police officer passed by her stalled car. He parked his car in front of hers and asked for her ID as she desperately tried to restart the car. “There is a strong smell in the car,” she told him, trying to exit the car, but he insisted that she stay inside while he examined her papers.
She tried to open the windows, but they, too, were affected by the electrical failure. Again, she tried to exit the car, opening the door, but the officer rushed over and slammed it shut, crushing her hand. She yelled “Allahu Akbar ’alaiku” (God is greater than you are), chastising him several times for not allowing her to escape. She urged him to let her out as fire ignited in the front part of the car. He refused. He stood there, watching her burn inside. The airbag deployed, completely trapping her inside the blazing car.
The police officer who stopped her claimed that she was trying to use the propane tank to blow up the car. His testimony was the only one considered in the Israeli court, and Israa’ was branded a ‘terrorist’. She was sentenced to 11 years in prison.
