Israelis moving toward ever more extreme anti-Palestine positions as election nears

August 28, 2026/9 Comments/in General/by Kevin MacDonald

Haaretz

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem on Tuesday.

Netanyahu refuses to open Gaza border crossing day after poor polling

Coming on the heels of a new low in election polling, PM Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz announced Thursday that the Erez Crossing between Israel and Gaza would not be opened for the entry of goods.

Israel’s defense establishment had been reportedly preparing to open the crossing by Tuesday under pressure from U.S. President Trump’s Board of Peace, but according to Netanyahu and Katz, “Israel’s policy in Gaza is clear and has not changed: There will be no reconstruction before the Hamas terrorist organization is disarmed and the Gaza Strip is fully demilitarized.”

On Wednesday, a Channel 13 News poll predicted 19 seats for Netanyahu’s Likud party, a drop of four seats from the previous survey. It came a day after the launch of a new far-right party led by former general Ofer Winter, who said at the event that “there will never be a Palestinian state here. There is only one solution for Gaza – emigration.” On Thursday, Winter said he will only support giving Netanyahu the mandate to form a coalition after the election.

Meanwhile, Israel is reportedly considering expelling the British, Italian and German representatives from the coordination center tasked with monitoring the cease-fire in the Strip due to their governments’ criticism of the Netanyahu government’s policies in the West Bank and Gaza.

On Tuesday, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar announced he intends to “immediately expel” Dutch representatives from the base over “a series of anti-Israel moves by the Dutch government.”

Sources who spoke to the Financial Times said that expelling international representatives could require approval from the Board of Peace. A third source disputed this, saying that Israel has the sovereign right to decide who may enter its territory and who may remain there.

Winter’s party looks like a suitable tax shelter, a satellite party that will absorb all the rightist voters who have fled the government. Yet Winter creates a problem for the coalition bloc, because he is specifically an alternative for Smotrich’s base – religious Zionists. “Winter is a big problem for us,” one coalition member said. “The moment he is running, Smotrich simply doesn’t make it in,” writes Ravit Hecht

Bezalel Smotrich at a ceremony in the West Bank this month. "We will need a war in Judea and Samaria," he said at a conference in July.

Eisenkot calls Israel’s controversial West Bank tender a ‘mistake’

Netanyahu’s main challenger for the premiership, Gadi Eisenkot, criticized the government for issuing a construction tender for 1,200 housing units in the strategically contested E1 area of the West Bank, telling the daily Israel Hayom that “it is a mistake that comes at an international cost.”

The tender, which was published in violation of Israeli law, was widely condemned by the international community, including Israel’s allies, such as France, Germany, Italy and Britain.

According to Eisenkot, Netanyahu had opposed building in E1 for years but approved it under pressure from his coalition partners. Eisenkot also accused far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich of “sabotaging Israel’s national interest,” saying their actions, along with settler violence against Palestinians, were damaging Israel’s international legitimacy and endangering the entire settlement enterprise.

While Eisenkot said in the interview that “anyone who thinks about a two-state solution after October 7 is simply delusional,” Smotrich retorted in a statement that the former general’s opposition to the E1 settlement plan means he “supports establishing a Palestinian state.”

Smotrich also went on to claim in a press conference that due to the “post-Zionist policy” of Israel’s Planning Administration, “the Arabs are occupying the Negev and the Galilee” in the south and north of the country, respectively. The minister said he will “Judaize” the aforementioned regions, as he did the West Bank, adding this will involve replacing “these post-Zionist and anti-Zionist people to enable the moves we want.”

In Europe, newly elected Slovenian PM Janez Janša confirmed his government blocked a planned EU-wide statement condemning Israel’s planned settlement construction in E1, saying in a post on X that his country had “removed” itself from a “vicious circle” of losing credibility through what he described as disproportionate EU condemnations of Israel.

    Israeli leadership is trying to steal more land. The Israeli staged October 7th event was intended to support more land grabs. They will always say that Hamas still exists, so they can steal more land. But it is known that Israel has funded Hamas in the past.

    Look how Israel humiliates Trump repeatedly, this time sabotaging his board of peace, and he does not react.

    Aah the Hate-Retz (Hate-Retch?)

    You could go up to the most tie-dyed, dreadlocked, patchouli-smelling Israeli Jew, and ask them about “the Arabs” (you know, those people some of whose ancestors may have actually walked with Jesus) and they’ll start foaming the the mouth, “KILL ‘EM! KILL ‘EM ALL!!”

    Reminds me of the carny’s disclaimer that the rubes should keep their eye on the pea. America is being stolen by the usual suspects one high purchase agreement at a time.

    Henry Penner has a heavy fate: He brokers real estate worth millions (even though his last name is also a slur for homeless/bum in German). https://archive.is/fwuNe

    But that’s not all: He’s a homo son of a “Getapo [sic] man” and suffers from an incurable father complex. Although he can’t provide any evidence of his father’s “crimes” beyond vague allegations, he feels a pressing need to shit on his father’s grave in front of the whole world. https://archive.is/YNFS8

    The crudest examples include quotes like: “He [his father] welcomed my gay friends into our family home. He embraced my sister’s Black husband and loved his biracial grandchildren with genuine affection and without reservation.” But the hated Nazi dad wouldn’t listen to reason: “I’d do it all over again.” [lol]

    PS “GenZ’s obsession” video: Psychologically speaking, there may be a grain of truth in that, but if the millions of young men who fell in battle (not to mention the civilians) could be asked—if they were still able—whether it was worth it, probably none of them would be willing to repeat the madness of violent conflict. Only those who survived can claim that. But that’s how it goes with this deceptive “hero worship.” One in three children lost their father. And refusing orders in wartime only makes sense on a massive scale—in the millions—if it carries the death penalty. What we—or rather, the few descendants—can expect in the future are the bloodiest civil wars along racial and ethnic collective boundaries. But these will unfold quite differently from military operations.

    In his latest videos, Brandy Moorbeaner defended October 7 as “Israel’s right to defend itself.” Not a word about 80 years of Jewish land theft and terror against the Palestinians, let alone the genocide of the Gazacaust. He seems to be trying to curry favor with the Jews, a fact that hasn’t gone unnoticed by his few viewers.

    Now he feels compelled, along with his New Zealand co-idiot, to bash Mark Collett (“a shill paid by Russia,” “spreading the usual neo-Nazi shit just like Nick Griffin,” sic!, etc.), even though Collett was merely answering a question from one of his viewers. I only watched for a few minutes, though—my time is too precious for this.

    TOO has great articles, but seems to be cursed with very confused and lowbrow commenters.

    Here’s an honest question for Prof MacDonald: instead of whining about Jewish cruelty towards the Palestinians (as if the Palestinians wouldn’t be just as awful to the Jews if they got the upper hand), shouldn’t racially declining whites learn to admire and emulate them? What we prowhites want is exactly what the Zionists actually achieved – their own ethnostate. Shouldn’t we study their achievement? And in the unlikely event that our race survives via similarly achieving territorial sovereignty for anti-diversitist whites, can there be the slightest doubt that we, too, will be hated by our neighbors, and the victims of relentless hostility and terrorism? Will white preservationists be able to behave any differently from Israelis?

    In Israel today we have the template for white survival tomorrow. Embrace it, white men!

    The following post contains unpleasant language towards ethnic Europeans. But, the unpleasant language was not meant towards European Nationalists, who are, relatively speaking, still genetically healthy and functional enough to have a a sense of pro-Group Selection, but rather meant towards the bulk of Europeans who have genetically deteriorated beyond any chance of salvation. This post even contains unpleasant language towards Ron Unz, yet surprisingly, the post was approved over there:

    Unz.c*m/runz/the-collapse-of-american-hegemony-and-global-nuclear-risks/

    My hypothesis is that every time Unz says that Iran has defeated the White House Likuds, he is either depicting senility or intentional fraud. For all I know, Ron Unz could be dead and his site run by the known CIA disinformationist Kevin Barret.

    White House Likuds again bombed the heck out of Iran, wiping out an entire wedding party. In retaliation, Iran just killed a bunch of white trash soldiers in Jordon, Kuwait, etc. No big deal – there are 1.2 billion white trash waiting to take their place.

    Iran can’t touch the Likud Ashkenazim. All it can do is destroy a few of their equipment, such as white trash, in the Middle East. Iran can’t even touch Saudi Arabia anymore, due to the new Paki/Turkey/Saudi alliance against Iran. As Iranians die in mass, no equal amount of Ashkenazi people die – only white trash die.

    The best thing Iran can do is painlessly end their lives with Pentobarbital and return back to a better life in the After-Life. No one can defeat the Ashkenazim.
