Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir escalated his rhetoric on Monday, calling for the arrest of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and the lifting of immunity for senior PA officials, amid growing international discussion of establishing a Palestinian state.

Speaking at the opening of a meeting of his far-right “Jewish Power” bloc, Ben-Gvir said recent days had seen “an alarming increase” in — a concept he vowed to oppose “under any circumstances,” according to the Hebrew daily Yediot Aharonot.

Ben-Gvir warned that none of the Palestinian Authority leadership enjoys immunity, delivering a direct message to Abbas and other PA officials. He said that if Israel or the United Nations were to recognize a Palestinian state, Israeli authorities should issue orders for “precise assassinations” targeting top PA figures and proceed with the arrest of Abbas.

He went further, claiming that “a solitary confinement cell is already prepared” for Abbas at Ketziot Prison in southern Israel.

Keir Starmer objects to criticism of the IDF. He asks how could anyone object to them starving people to death, forced marches like the Nazis did, bombing Gaza's hospitals and universities, mass-murdering journalists, healthworkers and starving people queuing for food, killing and raping prisoners and murdering children. He calls for people to stop obstructing his genocide for Israel.
