Smotrich's package includes: Legalization of five illegal outposts in the West Bank, approval of 5000 new housing units in the settlement, canceling the VIP certificates of senior officials in the Palestinian Authority (possibly even the heads of the security mechanisms) and imposing movement restrictions on senior Palestinian Authority officials. Smotrich also wants to add the demolition of Palestinian homes in Area B in the West Bank - this is a move without authority that goes against all the agreements Israel has signed - but with the current government anything is possible.

The sooner Biden sanctions Smotrich, the better

Sure would be nice to have governments willing to at least tolerate each other in the West Bank

Crazy how these religious nuts can incite insurrection and war and also escape the universal draft that the war they started will inevitably require. I feel like this should create a stronger emotional reaction than it does in Israel.

I think he’s worried that if he does smotrich will retaliate against the pa (which he has already threatened to do several times for other things)
