#Israel's coalition government sequenced its constitutional overhaul back in December 2022, and has since followed diligently on the legislative, policy, and political measures outlined to extinguish #Palestinian self-determination. A reminder thread:
The preamble to the policy platform of #Israel's 37th Government reads: the Jewish people has an exclusive and irrefutable sovereign right to all of the land of Israel (historic Palestine). The government will promote and develop settlements in Judea and Samaria (West Bank).
1. To execute said policy, the government will promote legislative amendments, particularly to the balance between the legislator, executive, and judiciary, and the appointment of justices. The legislative overhaul will take absolute and complete precedence over all legislation.2
2. Further, the Prime Minister will lead the application of Israeli sovereignty to Judea and Samaria, identifying the appropriate timing. Ahead of that, settlement outposts (of which there are 147) will be formalized and provided with all essential infrastructure and services.
3. In tandem, power over all organs of Israel's military government of occupied Palestinian territory will be transferred to Minister #Smotrich, who will appoint officials (to rule permanently over Palestinians).
To date, protests have not stopped #Israel's government from pursuing its defining political project - the disenfranchisement of #Palestinians. Likely because the protests skirt the issue and fail to recognize the intersectionality with the #Palestinian cause.
