on al jazeera, i welcome to the stream i manage habit, dean israeli citizens put prime minister benjamin netanyahu back in the office 1st 6 term since then, he's formed a government with ultra nationalists and ultra orthodox parties and filled key ministerial positions with far right leaders. now palestinian, still reeling from one of the deadliest years in decades. worry that settlements will expand. violence will increase and the occupation will become all the more permanent to day we ask, what does israel's new far right government mean for palestinians? ah, joining us to discuss from occupied easterwood, slim journalist, july bahati, also an occupied east. drew swim yadda, haughty, senior analyst of as tobacco, the palestinian policy network. and with us from porto alegre, mariam metal booty, palestine correspondent for mondo ice. and of course, we want you to join the conversation, so be sure to share your thoughts and questions with us right here on youtube. ah, so much to discuss. i want to start with a very simple question. let's just go, ah, of birth, starting with you marian, let's start with you. how would you describe this government in one word? fascist, yada. israel. dead up? predictable. is there a fascist and predictable, right? so those are some key terms to maybe frame the discussion. i'll ask you medi, i'm how is this new government fashion and what really sets it apart from the previous governments? how will this impact palestinians? i think the only thing that the government apart from other governments is the way it is for trade media other than not very on brand. if they true to the essence of the israeli project, which is an ethnic cleansing, and it is driving policy out in order to replace them demographically. and yara, when you say israel, is it just more of the same? what did you mean by that? i mean, how do you think or has the new government already started to impact palestinians their daily lives? i mean, the reason i said it was israel is because this is the true face, that it doesn't hide behind a liberal facade which has done so to so many decades. i'm already feeling that, you know, the full on effects of this very crude regime. you know, it's not, it's not necessarily a different from us before, but they sent me much more violent in their rhetoric towards palestinians. and this is in bold to name certain actors in society. namely, the settlers in the west bank who are using this as a green light to go all out against palestinians. and when she talks about the settlers, i'm curious, you said predictable. how are you worried that there will be increased subtler activity that this will impact palestinians and what about it? what about maybe some of those key ministerial positions might be making you worry about the, the way i saw this government when i 1st started, is it a very natural result of where israel is today? of it's not true progression of what israel is become, what we saw in the past years of set their expansion and violence and all the horrible apartheid and whatever we saw. it's only going to get a fire truck with this government is, is going to pull a fast track, it will be amplified. it will be only increased. it's not going to be different than what happened before in different governments, but it's just going to be put on even on steroids. it's israel on steroids with this specific government. that's why is rated, are protesting by the way. those rates are opposing this over and because they fear that they would lose the status quo for pressing palestinians and the whole world to remain silent. this government is just wanting to fast track the ethnic cleansing, and expansion and make it all go happen buster. and that's why i'm concerned. and you know, i appreciate you outlining those concerns in that way. i saw maybe i'm, you were nodding and we have people in our you to chat, live timing in here. when you talk about ethnic cleansing, obviously a term that makes a lot of people uncomfortable, but a term that is accurate. and i want to ask, is it accurate? i mean, many and blood nodes on youtube thing. what this means for palestinians is debt out . is that what's actually happening here? it's, it's either get out or that's the status quo. very passive. mean that means except being in prison for no reason, other than being palestinian. that means except things that your water resources are going to be stolen and then pulled back to you through the corporations. that means that settlers, all they have to do is pull up their gun and shoot you as we have been consistently last year through operation break the ways on which it continuing until today. and i want to share with our audience a clip from al jazeera senior correspondent, enron con, about how the conversation has shifted on the ground. since the new government came to be, take a look lowest hold. well, palestine in state any more on the right way? harvey is ready parties, you're hearing people say the occupation is now permanent and that's something that was always panic dismissed when it was said out loud. but now people are taking that seriously. they say it the mayor of been a good player. he is the national security minister. he has been convicted of racism towards policies for the arabs. he's openly racist. he's now in charge of the police force that was the 1st big concession legal from benjamin netanyahu. we're always trying to look for honestly and constantly. we're up against people who are best lives. and now those lies seem to dissipate people of just being completely honest and open with what they would like. which is, you know, the palestinians house line completely. the palestinians out of palestine completely echoing some of what you all have, discuss gelata when you see that video. and i'd like to hear from all of you on this. i mean the national security minister in particular what, what stood out to you. that's what stood out to me, just some of the policies that that might be down the pipeline. what stood out to me is that the idea of zionism and the way it started palestine and over decades of what we've witnessed is a very concentrated and systematic operation. of expelling and ethnic lansing, this land of his native inhabitants. it's been happening as slowly and fast ad, depending on the periods. but what we're seeing today is that the disk, new government is not concerned about taking it slow is not concerned about the public opinion. so concerned about what the rest of the world thinks, and it's just like israel is ethnically supremacist state based on ethnic supremacy for the jewish colonizers. and it's not, it's not going to be merciful and the native inhabitants. and it's just normalizing jewish supremacy to the whole world thing. this is a jewish state and it would be okay to just move all those palestinians forcefully and kill and shoot and move them out. people that this new government is trying to convince the world that it's israel's right to do this. based on the core based tenants of zionism, which is like this jewish, the, it has to be established and dominated, donate this land right and not be ashamed of its purpose. right? and i'm not cleansing along, i'm not that through premises narrative for lack of a better word. i mean, i want to ask you ya, we, we have this graph just to give a sense to our audience, the growth in the number of settlers since netanyahu 1st took office in 1996 to 999 . then again in 2009 of course this, these are sort of conservative numbers, but you do see the trend rising and rising. we know now some people say the estimates over 100. i think it's half a 1000000 or even more 600000 fentler's. but more importantly, you know, in my law, in areas where, let's just say the reactions seem to have been strongest. i want to share with you someone after the 8th, who had this to say about the new government and we'll come right back to you. take a listen. well, this is key is that this is an extremist government run by netanyahu. and banga via who is minister of national security. it showed he will be an extremist governments, and the situation won't be calm. it seems it is clear with the israeli public on the palestinian public. that will be so many things that the government will do that and not find by the palestinian site. and this will cause a lot of trouble. why should i have something we will call you after you heard him say many things that the government will do? what are some of the most alarming things that you're aware of and are this promises and pledges inevitable? i mean, is there a way off this, this disaster dystopian roller coaster we're on i mean, some of the things that we can expect from this new coalition government is a much sort of tied to the rain. know that the west bank it tomorrow bank via the ministerial portfolio also includes the prisons where policy, let's go business to help. so we're quite worried about what the consequences off then in the case that you showed up with your colleague who was discussing it and then give it as a racist. i mean, that's true of every single israeli partition, whether they are right, left or center to believe in a state that is only for one group of people or that one group of people have the right to dominate another group people basis and it's in, at it's very core at it's very essence. so i think we have to be very careful when we're talking about these. so called extreme is current is ok. they are crude, you know, it's going to be it can, it talks about shooting dead palestinians or arabs. but yeah, lucky you or betty ganz talks quite openly about bombing goes back to the stone age . so really, there isn't a huge difference. it's about rhetoric. it's about the language that they used to talk about these races policies. most certainly, you know, and i just want to share some visualization of, you know, we've heard 2022. this has been one of the roughest or deadliest or most violent years. i mean, we have this animation of just some of the headlines that we've seen, right of palestinians who have been killed in 2023. forgive me just in the beginning of 2023. right. i think in the 1st 2 weeks it was already in the dozens or over a dozen. and again, i don't want to focus too much on the depths for as important as they are. we know that the lives are also so difficult and so i appreciate you kind of breaking through some of that framing. do you worry then about the framing that this is the most far right? that, that like, you know, i know, i know, for example, you july, you have had 1st hand experience with some of the settler violence that is expected to continue to rise. could you share with us what that actually means? and also why you're certain this is getting worse. in the past, the settlers would be wanting to make a stand to be, to become bolder, to be challenging the government and challenge them. there's really occupation military in the, in the west bank, specifically there would be wanting to institute for policy. but now we have those extremists who would go on an attack and commit arse and attacks against villagers in the west bank. and the ones who are actually acting in violent acts, they are the ones in government. they are the ones who came from yet from, from korea, by in the middle of hebron being via and his is as allies and smoke which the ones we see on the hilltop, the hilltops, the terrorist cutters, the ones attacking more, actually in the government. and this is why it's a bit to for concern because the ones we fear the most in our daily lives to the ones are attacking our cars and, and injuring us directly. or actually the one setting policy in the past, it would have been some, neither intel, a vive or jerusalem, trying to pretend the subtler regime is just acting on its own. while we know that the sectors is empowered by the government obtained by the government today, they are the government. the settlers is the government and they are the ones conducting the policies all over the territory. and i saw many i'm you were and nodding in agreement. i mean, why is that such an important point and how do we know, how are we certain that some of those attacks that was outlining are going to continue to increase? so there's high that was outlining our results of previous attacks that happened in a more spread out manner. when it was in less frequency, we saw the arse than attacked in duma. that left an entire family was burned to death in 2015 and near novice. and these are all micro aggressions that preceded what is happening now. and what we're seeing is just an intensification about it. i think in the 1st video that we saw then mentioned there openly, racist. i think that's the only difference it vinegar feet is no different than nixon. yeah. that one is just more openly racist billings. b, it was refused. i'm to the israeli military when it was time for him to serve because he was considered too dangerous. now this man has control over the entirety of these really armed forces and, and, and this is, it's, it's emblematic of what is to come and it's gonna be bloody and it's gonna be ugly . and palestinians are gonna deal with it. and then our resistance is going to be criminal. i think that's even worse. i'm so glad you bring up that point. so there been rumors, i've heard that there is an actual law trying to codify what is already happening, right. which if a palestinian is resisting occupation, unlike ukrainians, resisting occupation that somehow in the law, legally israel has a right. they've already been killing palestinians who resist, but now it's going to be codified in law my, on my writing and understanding this medi, i'm yada, anyone want to clarify that for our audience? i mean, it's always been codified and israeli know because he is ready. supreme court has always upheld these extra digits, are killing him when the israeli army has had open fire regulation. so this is actually been a common transit, something that is really regime does just was showed for practice. so there have been many ways in which the israeli regime has, in a sense, legalized these kinds of killings. but of course, it doesn't matter what the, it's where the regime doesn't come to its own judicial system. the what the renovation is doing is illegal under international law and under the international legal regime. so i think we have to be very clear when we're talking about legality legality. most certainly, and i appreciate how many am please what they're doing is trying to evade accountability. so in the future we are trying to try a soldier or a commander. they complete that they were only acting within the law of their state and i think that's what's happening here. codification is for the future. not for now or now they're going to continue what they've been doing, killing they both an entire state over math. and now what they're looking at the specially as we're pursuing international accountability is how to keep themself right from that. right. and of course we've seen, i'm very mindful that we do not have and israeli jewish citizen on this panel on this conversation on, in this conversation. that said, there has been a conversation growing in israel, where we've seen, you know, 100000 people protesting mostly against the judicial reforms that have been proposed, but also against whose core corruption. and i want to ask why openly, i mean, actually let me frame it this way. we have in fact already asked. so let's bring in a jewish voice. we have roy yellen, the director of public outreach from salem, who is among the protesters there and tell you, we asked him what the motivation is about how to save israeli democracy if you will take a little i was among the protesters in television against israel's government, attempt to destroy the judicial system. the new government is explicit about its id, ology, of jewish supremacy. but that was also the idea. allergy doesn't guided previous israeli governments. new threats are posed by this government to the human rights of other groups in addition to the palestinians. it seemed that the majority of protesters probably did not share, but telling you that israel is not a democracy, but rather in apartheid regime. yet at least a significant minority among them did to lot. what do you think anyone who wants to jump in? i it's, it's a thing that it's been talked about a lot. a lot of them, perhaps the ones who see the occupation, the ones who see apartheid, the ones who see what's actually happening on the ground like us by the citizens. mainly we understand that no protests in television, no matter if it's 800000 or a 1000000 going out in the street and tell if it doesn't matter if they're just calling for preserving a democracy, which was never a democracy, was never a democracy for anyone living in this land, when over 5000000 people come up to even participate in the votes and people are living under apartheid and all that, the 2nd matches, they are fighting against the judicial reforms, and those reforms, the people protesting against that netanyahu reforms are actually calling to maintain this at the school to protect their soldiers from being persecuted by, by courts there wanting to maintain high school to protect the soldiers who commit crimes against the palestinians. that's why it's the thing to maintain the status quo, to protect their soldier, to protect their children. who are actually killing palestinians in the occupied territories on a daily basis. i do not believe in any protest that goes on in any part of it. i don't even see it actually because i hear about my life and the life of the policy and the well being of our people don't care about someone who wants to maintain up are tight rather than demolish it a lot. i appreciate that. and before i let anyone else jump in, i do want to just bring in some of the voices and are you to chat a lot of people on youtube, understandably very concerned for the well being of palestinians. one of them, brad lovely, asking how does israel manage it's long term image of being a moral per i on the global scene. also saying how do we empower palestinians to create sustainable eco savvy revenue streams to find their way? and lastly, how is the united nation stepping up to buffer any worst case scenarios arising from this disturb? yeah, well, when it comes to the united nations, before i let you respond, i'm gonna play this clip from our prime minister benjamin netanyahu. maybe he can help help us answer this. take a listen melissa. like all the hundreds of distorted decisions against israel that were passed by the general assembly of the united nations over years. also, the despicable decision that was passed today will not bind the israeli government . the jewish people are not occupiers on their own land, nor occupiers in our eternal capital, jerusalem a no you and resolution can warp that historical to still exist. so of course, madam, i would love your reaction for our audience who doesn't understand the context. this was in reaction to the international court of justice providing an opinion on israel's occupation as despicable so that's what he called it. but mary, i'm your thoughts to some of those questions that were asked in youtube. and before i also get to that, i also want to bring up the protests that were happening. i think it's less about what they were processing and we need to look at how the israeli police and authorities responded to these protesters. met is very telling of how israel isn't a part. i met regina that if it was palestinians, we would have been shot. and killed it would just have been news of oh, there are protesters. so that's important. i think that's the most important thing about what was happening there. in yellow speaking, he's a killer. he sanctions on the mass, killing a pile of things. so of course you don't think it's despicable every sociopath think that the pickable when they're held on accountable to their fine. but in terms of empowering pallet names. but we need right now is a disempowering of israel and d, legitimize ation of israel to exist. and i think this is the step where we're at right now. no, no settler has the right to create the states by ethnic cleansing a population period that is non negotiable. and i think that's where we should and that includes boycotting is reading products and reading at most certainly. and i want to give you a chance, the od. i know you were going to jump in there before you do we have the tweet just based on what marian was talking about, that outlines a blow to normalization. as robert carter calls an old man's parliament voting to expand the boycott of israel in support of palestine criminalizing ties with television. i want to ask you that in mind the out, obviously a lot of indications of kind of you know, normalizing the status quo. but what, what do you think about that move and also what marian was outlining? well, i want to just, you know what you asked about and tons of israel's image. you know, it's really, regime doesn't how to do much to, to oppose it. look at the, the world's most powerful countries in the united states, which in itself is a brutal set in a colony. you have the r abrasions, which normalized with with israel, which all despotic names, which will so crush and ton of this. and so, you know, is that with no exceptional when it comes to violations of human rights or off refusal ethnic cleansing, or colonialism for that matter. so you know, help me expect this of a country to sort of state take a stand against the israeli regime when, when they're just brutal when they, they also commit acts. so i think we always have to, to view it in that context that the is ready regime is sustained by an unjust world by unjust regimes across the world. and one of your common one of the comments in the, in the youtube section, you know, asked about ecos james from the financing, palestinian. you know, this isn't about money or we don't, it's not that we lack money. this is that we lack the political power behind us and there isn't political will to change or to challenge the israeli regime. and so the most important thing that people can do globally is not give money to alice daniel . i mean that me support humanitarian efforts to change the politics in the country where they are to a politics that is more receptive to justice, to global justice and palestinian liberation. and what an incredible point to and on i was actually going to ask another great question, but we're running out of time. and obviously that is such a critical point. you know, this idea that we didn't even discuss maybe an elephant or one of the elephants in the room is the absence of palestinian leadership, a lack of elections there, a big disconnect, i would argue a conversation that very relevant to the one we had today. so hopefully you will all join us again soon, yada mattie, i'm thank you for sharing your insights with us here at the stream. that's all the time we have for today. i want to thank my guests and remember you can always find us on stream dot al jazeera dot com online. ah, [000:00:00;00] a ah, a decade of change. the $970.00 in the middle east and north africa in the 1st of a 2 part series out. is there a well chart?
