Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich called for building a new settlement in Judea and Samaria for every country unilaterally recognizing a Palestinian State.
According to Arutz 7, Smotrich also criticized the release of the director of the Shifa Hospital during a party meeting today. "The release today of the director of the terror headquarters known as the Shifa Hospital, together with dozens of other terrorists, is a scandal and a big failure. I wrote to the Prime Minister demanding to conduct an immediate inquiry into this failure and demand answers from all those responsible without exception in order to ensure that such a thing will not happen again."
"Last Thursday, the cabinet approved my proposal to impose harsh sanctions against the Palestinian Authority and its leaders, including economic sanctions, travel restrictions, and revocation of VIP privileges for Palestinian Authority officials in response to the activities the PA is conducting against the State of Israel. These include the enforcement of law in Area B, with a focus on enforcement against illegal Arab construction in the eastern Gush Etzion. In addition, the cabinet approved my proposal to legitimize five new towns in Judea and Samaria in strategic locations that create a Jewish settlement continuum, and in addition we are approving some 6,000 new housing units, as part of my plan to prevent a Palestinian state."
