Communist Party of Israel: Four Scenarios for Forming a New Government

The position of the Joint List

These are times that call for a stand to oust Netanyahu and his fascist allies. Therefore, despite the incitement and the racism, the Joint List recommended Eisenkot to the Israeli president for the latter do not have any excuse of calling for a unity government, and as a fulfillment of the will of over 500,000 Arab Palestinian and Jewish voters who wish to see Netanyahu ousted.

According to CPI and Hadash, toppling this government is a historic task. The danger posed by the Netanyahu-Ben-Gvir-Smotrich government goes beyond discrimination, home demolitions and the spread of crime and racism afflicting our communities. It is a government of war, extermination and displacement in Gaza, of deepening occupation and settlement, of unchecked settler terror in the West Bank, and of a drive to liquidate the Palestinian cause. Its continuation threatens the whole region, and the presence of President Trump in the White House raises the danger further by offering cover for war, annexation and displacement. Hence, the results of the midterm elections in the US could hold positive prospectives regarding an alternation in US foreign policy especially in matters of supporting Israel’s continuous violations of international law in the Palestinian Occupied Territories and the region.

To bring down Netanyahu, Arab-Israeli parties ready for opposition alliance

Raam, a Hebrew acronym for United Arab List, is a moderate Islamist party headed by Mansour Abbas. In 2021, he agreed to join a short-lived coalition of Netanyahu’s opponents, making Raam the first Arab party to join an Israeli government.

The far-left Joint List, led by Yousef Jabareen, brings together three parties with a mixture of communist and Palestinian nationalist leanings.

Abbas and Jabareen told AFP they were ready — under certain conditions — to cooperate with the opposition, particularly the bloc of Netanyahu’s main rival Gadi Eisenkot, which is polling neck and neck with the premier’s.

Over 320 Jewish and Arab Academics Call on Public to Vote for the Joint List

Among the signatories are Prof. Amos Goldberg, Prof. Orna Ophir, Prof. Khawla Abu-Baker, Prof. Oded Goldreich, Prof. Nurit Peled-Elhanan, Prof. Oren Yiftachel, Prof. Yehouda Shenhav-Shaer, Prof. Gadi Algazi, Prof. Lior Sternfeld, Prof. Omri Boehm, Prof. Nitza Berkovitch, Prof. Marwan Dwairy, Prof. Raef Zreik, Prof. Yishai Rosen-Zvi, Prof. Gerardo Leibner, Prof. Avner Ben-Amos, Prof. Avishai Ehrlich, Prof. Itzhak Nevo, Prof. Dana Ron, Dr. Anat Matar, Dr. Efraim Davidi and Dr. Ornat Turin.

The statement reads: “We will not give up on a shared future: For equality, peace, and democracy, we will vote for the Joint List. We, academics, express our support for the Joint List and the principles it represents: full equality between Jews and Palestinians; recognition of Palestinians’ civil and national rights; an end to the occupation and the pursuit of a just peace; the struggle against racism and discrimination; and free and equal political representation for all citizens.

“We are living through a period in which racism and incitement are deepening, while the political space for Jewish-Arab partnership is shrinking. The war of annihilation in Gaza, the ethnic cleansing in the West Bank, the abuse of prisoners, and the rampant crime ravaging Palestinian society all reflect a destructive policy.

“We seek to stand firmly against this policy and emphasize: There is no democracy without equality, no peace without justice, and no shared future without Jewish-Arab political partnership. We believe that the lives and futures of Jews and Palestinians are intertwined, and that only a joint struggle for freedom, equality, and justice can secure a democratic future for us all. We support the Joint List, its principles, and the struggle it represents for a better life for everyone.”

The Joint List‘s Platform: There is another way

The Joint List strives to change the existing political, social and economic reality, to fight the spread of fascism under the government of Benjamin Netanyahu, and to act to halt all Israeli wars – chief among them the war of annihilation against the Palestinian people. The list is based in principle on the political platform of the first Joint List (2015), and works to realise this vision through representing the national and civil issues of Arab society with head held high, without trading one for the other.

This vision rests on the essential connection between the national and democratic struggle and action for a safe life with dignity. Hence, we place the individual and their dignity at the centre of politics: we link the national and civil rights of the Arab public to social justice and peace, defend the security of our families and our homes, our children‘s education, our health, and jobs and a life of dignity, and act to translate our joint power into tangible change in people‘s lives. This is our platform, and these are the issues we will place at the top of our priorities:

Fascists Attempt to Storm Joint List Election HQ in Tel Aviv

Fascists identified with the racist Otzma Yehudit party, broke into the Left Bank club in Central Tel Aviv last night (Thursday, October 15). The building also serves as the Joint List elections headquarters, and branch for Hadash and the Communist Party of Israel. The intrusion occurred during the premiere screening of the “Mesarvot” occupation army refusers network’s film, “Not Refusing to Respond,” and led to physical clashes with activists.

A dozen fascists attempted to reach the floor where the headquarters operates. Police arrived only after the activists had been removed from the premises by activists. The Joint List strongly condemned the violent break-in at the campaign’s election headquarters in Tel Aviv. “This marks a dangerous new peak in political violence within the country, representing a perilous escalation and a tangible threat to election integrity. The writing is on the wall, and we must not wait for the next incident to understand the severity of the situation and act decisively,” the statement read.

We live at a dangerous moment.
But our future is not predetermined.
War is a choice.
Peace is also a choice.
And sometimes —
the greater courage, lies, not in starting a war —
but in preventing one.
Pakistan has made its choice.
We have chosen dialogue over confrontation.
We have chosen cooperation over coercion.
We have chosen peace over war.
Let this eighty-first General Assembly make it unanimous choice.
For ourselves.
For our children.
And for generations yet unborn.
Let us restore trust. Let us preserve peace.
And let us prove that even in a divided world —
humanity can still choose to stand together.

I thank you.

Joint Foreign Ministers‘ Statement on the Two-State Solution

(September 8, 2026)

Statement of the Foreign Ministers of Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Iceland, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and the UK on the Two-State Solution

1. The Government of Israel’s actions in the West Bank are undermining the possibility of a two-State solution. The situation is rapidly deteriorating amid unprecedented levels of settler violence and settlement expansion, including the unacceptable decision to publish tenders for the E1 settlement project. UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham, the President of France Emmanuel Macron and Prime Minister of Canada Mark Carney have agreed on the need to take action to prevent further damage.

Today, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Iceland, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and the UK confirm their intention to introduce national and/or support European restrictions on trade in goods with settlements which are illegal under international law, or that they are actively considering these and other measures, in accordance with their national procedures. In this regard, the UK, France and Canada welcome the important action already taken by Ireland, Spain, the Netherlands, Norway and Belgium and will bring forward national measures to ban trade in settlement goods.

U.K. Foreign Minister Ed Miliband said the British sanctions would target specific companies and individuals who provide services including construction, infrastructure, financing or real estate for settlement expansion, as well as sanctions against individual settlers accused of violence against Palestinians.

„The set of measures I have announced represents a clear message to the government of Israel, to the Palestinians in the Occupied Territories, and to the world that we will not acquiesce in the destruction of the two-state solution,“ Miliband said.

We highlighted the grave threats facing the integrity and fairness of elections in Israel, specifically the political persecution of parties and parliamentarians representing Arab citizens, alongside racist attempts to undermine their legitimacy.

We also addressed the expansion of settlements in the occupied West Bank and the escalation of state terror against Palestinians, carried out by settler milicias with military cooperation and protection and in blunt violation of international law.

We have commenced the meeting by emphasizing the vital role of the European Union and its Member States in combating racism, advancing democratic norms and human rights, and promoting an immediate end to the occupation to achieve a just peace.

German MP backs call for Germany to formally recognize State of Palestine

BERLIN, August 18, 2026 (WAFA) — Macit Karaahmetoğlu, a deputy member of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the German Parliament and a lawmaker from the Social Democratic Party (SPD), expressed his support for a call by Palestine’s Ambassador to Germany, Laith Arafeh, for Germany to recognize the State of Palestine.

In a press statement, Karaahmetoğlu said that a majority of countries around the world, including several European countries such as France, Spain, and the United Kingdom, have recognized the State of Palestine.

He added that Germany’s recognition of the State of Palestine would serve as an effective lever in support of the two-state solution.

Hadash: No to Netanyahu’s Eternal War

(June 8, 2026)

“The time has come to stop providing automatic backing for destructive policies that lead to endless bloodshed, and instead fight for diplomatic agreements, true security, and peace. No to war with Iran. No to Netanyahu’s eternal war.”

According to Hadash MK Ayman Odeh, “War is the last resort for those who have no answers. War is the last resort of those who fear facing reality. And no one fears reality more than the Israeli government and large segments of the opposition, who repeatedly rush to align themselves behind the government, even attempting to outflank from the right the most right-wing and dangerous government in the country’s history.”

“Were they truly brave, rather than warmongers, they would call for an immediate halt to the escalation and present an alternative to the public. And the alternative is clear: a peaceful agreement that ensures security for all peoples in the region and respects the national rights of both nations living on this land. It is impossible to keep running away from this issue. It is impossible to keep fearing to speak the truth. It is impossible to keep falling for the illusion that more wars will bring security. Therefore, I say here in the clearest possible way: No to war with Iran. No to the eternal war. Yes, to a peaceful agreement. Yes, to a different, safer, and more just future for all of us,” he agreed.

They Tried to Demonize the Flotilla. They Exposed Their Own Crimes to the Entire World Instead.

(May 19, 2026)

The 428 abducted flotilla participants are currently unaccounted for. They have had no contact with legal counsel. They have been denied consular access. Their families have not been informed of their whereabouts.

We call on their governments and world leaders to demand their immediate and unconditional release and to ensure their right to consular and legal access without further delay.

Their detention is an extension of the same system that has kept nearly 10,000 Palestinian political prisoners and hostages held under an even more brutal architecture of confinement, coercion, and colonial violence. What has already been documented is not aberration. It is a pattern. Testimonies from flotilla participants released after the previous interception earlier this month, describe torture, physical assault, and sexual violence.

Independent rights organizations, including Save the Children, have documented that more than half of the Palestinian children detained by israel report sexual abuse, sexualized violence, and systematic torture. This pattern of sexual violence is systematically operating without interruption.

Gaza and the West Bank are where that structure is most illustrative. They are where weapons are tested, surveillance systems refined, and techniques of enclosure normalized before being exported into policing regimes, border infrastructures, prison systems, and governance models across the world.

President Abbas: The Palestinian cause will remain the greatest test of the international system and its credibility

Excellencies, Heads of Delegations and Representatives of States and International Organizations

Ladies and Gentlemen

Today, in these difficult circumstances that our people are enduring, we commemorate the seventy-eighth anniversary of the Nakba, the catastrophe that is ongoing until this very day, and the crime of ethnic cleansing inflicted upon our Palestinian people. This crime, carried out by Zionist militias with the support of colonial powers, led to the uprooting of 950,000 Palestinians from their cities and villages, and their removal from the land of their ancestors, which they had inherited and inhabited for thousands of years, to be displaced and replaced, transforming them into a people of refugees, witness to the attempts to steal, falsify and erase their history and heritage.

This heinous crime, the Nakba, was accompanied by numerous massacres during which tens of thousands of our people were slaughtered and killed, and their cities and villages destroyed. More than 531 towns and villages, once vibrant with cultural, economic, social, and political life, were erased.

We will not leave, and we will not forget.

We, the Palestinian people and our refugees, did not emigrate from Palestine nor leave it voluntarily in 1948, as Israel and the Zionist movement have claimed, rather, we were forcibly and coercively expelled from it. The truth is that the Palestinian people rose up repeatedly to defend their historic homeland and their existence on their land. We still remember the Palestinian revolution of 1936–1939, but colonial powers provided the Zionists with every means and force necessary to seize the land of Palestine by force of arms.

The Zionist movement’s reliance on false narratives, mythology, and the infamous Balfour Declaration from the colonial era, along with the selective manipulation of fabricated historical events does not create rights, nor does it nullify the deeply rooted historical and legal rights of the Palestinian people to self-determination. It also does not negate international law or the Charter of the United Nations.
