A few things have come to light in the lead up to President Trump taking the oath of office and today, the second full day of his presidential tenure. Bibi Netanyahu is still afraid to push the button on annexation and Naftali Bennett is willing to call him out on it. For eight years nationalists in Israel gave Bibi Netanyahu a pass due to the immense pressure the Obama administration placed on him over “settlements.” After Trump’s miraculous win, the conventional wisdom was that Israel would just have to wait until January 20th to bury the “two state solution.” After all, he appointed David Friedman as the US Ambassador to Israel and has consecutively confirmed his intention to move the US embassy to Jerusalem.
With this in mind, the odd reports of Bibi Netanyahu pleading with fellow party members and Naftali Bennett to freeze the advancement of a bill to annex Maale Adumim, a city of forty thousand Israelis, seems counter productive. As of the writing of this article, Bennett has acquiesced, but a video interview with the Times of Israel 13 days ago shows Naftali’s Bennett’s thoughts on the unique point in history Israel now finds itself in.
“Donald Trump has shown in his own personal history the ability to take very creative and bold approaches. This [annexing Area C of the West Bank to Israel] is a creative and bold approach. I know it differs from what we’ve been doing for the past two decades. But heck, what we’ve been doing for the past two decades has failed again and again and again,” Bennett states in the interview.
The challenge for Bibi is clear. He must put aside the chess board he is used to playing with and grasp onto the new path being blazed in front of him or younger leaders like Bennett, Glick, and Hotovely will over take him and follow the Trump administration forward.
There is no need for playing games and worry at this point. A unique G-d given opportunity has indeed arisen and as many have pointed out, one that the Israeli leadership should not squander.
GOD’S WISDOM UPON BIBI IS BEYOND HUMAN COMPREHENSION ESPECIALLY THE ABILITY TO HANDLE SATAN’S INCARNATE CALLED BARAK OBAMA,AN ISLAMIST AND THE BETRAYER OF GREAT AMERICAN STATE. AMERICANS ARE NOT YET AWARE THE EVILS BROUGHT UPON THE USA WHICH OBAMA SPIRITUALLY LAID DOWN THE FOUNDATION OF GREAT AMERICA’S DESTRUCTION. IT IS UNFORTUNATE FOR THE USA TO HAVE OBAMA FOR EIGHT(8)YEARS.BUT A LITTLE LIGHT IS LEFT FOR THE USA FOR ELECTING DONALD JOHN TRUMP AND OUR COLLECTIVE PRAYER TO GOD ALMIGHTY IS FOR THE CONTINUATION OF THIS WISDOM UPON TRUMP AND QUICK RECOVERY FROM DAMAGES CAUSED BY OBAMA ON AMERICA. GOD BLESS BIBI! GOD BLESS TRUMP!! GOD BLESS LOVERS OF ERETZ YISRAEL!!!
