Safadi: Netanyahu's Extremist Statements Pose a Serious Threat to International Peace and Security - Jordan News
Safadi: Netanyahu's Extremist Statements Pose a Serious Threat to International Peace and Security Speaker of the House of Representatives Ahmed Al-Safadi said that the recent remarks by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding what he called the illusion of a 'Greater Israel vision' constitute a blatant threat to the sovereignty of states, a flagrant violation of international law, and are part of extremist and aggressive agendas aimed at pushing the region to the brink, posing an unprecedented danger to international peace and security. اضافة اعلان In a statement on behalf of the House of Representatives, Al-Safadi stressed that Netanyahu's statements are merely part of a destructive, inciteful agenda designed to fuel conflict and violence in a time when the peoples of the region need peace, justice, and dignity. He noted that these remarks represent a desperate attempt to deflect from the mounting international outrage over the heinous crimes committed against the people of Gaza, amid growing global awareness of the unprecedented violations taking place and increasing recognition by world states of the State of Palestine—clear indications of the rejection of the hardline extremists' agenda in Israel. The Speaker affirmed that Jordanians stand united behind His Majesty King Abdullah II, a symbol of determination and strength, and behind the brave armed forces and security agencies to protect the nation's interests and defend its land against any malicious extremist schemes. He added that Jordan will always remain the first and most faithful supporter of Palestine, continuing all efforts to stop the massacres and the brutal war in Gaza, and to ensure the Palestinian people attain their full legitimate rights on their national soil—foremost among them, the establishment of an independent Palestinian state on the June 4 borders with Jerusalem as its capital. Al-Safadi called on international parliaments and the global community to assume their historic responsibilities, act immediately to halt Israeli escalation, and make it clear that the continuation of occupation and aggression will only lead to more chaos. He urged international decision-making centers to take strong, clear positions rejecting such statements and to restore matters to their proper course through support for peaceful solutions that safeguard peoples' rights and ensure regional stability. He emphasized that 'peace is not built on threats and aggression,' noting that the hardline extremists in Israel will fail in achieving their radical agenda, which will bring neither security to them nor to the region. He called on the international community to draw the right lessons and take the correct steps in this regard, stressing that Jordan—under its leadership, with its army, and with its great people—will remain at the forefront in defending the rights of the Palestinian people and steadfast in protecting the stability, borders, and sacred soil of the homeland. —(Petra)

Netanyahu compares Gaza strikes to WWII Dresden bombing
On Wednesday, 'Israeli' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed attendees at a Newsmax event in Jerusalem. During, he suggested that while overthrowing Iran's government was never an official aim of the ongoing war, it could emerge as one of its consequences. Reflecting on the events of October 7, 2023, Netanyahu admitted there had been 'clear failures and intelligence mistakes,' marking a rare acknowledgment of shortcomings in 'Israel's' security apparatus. One of his remarks drew sharp international and humanitarian criticism when he likened 'Israel's' military actions in Gaza to the Allied bombing of Dresden, Germany, during World War II, a campaign notorious for its devastation of civilian areas. 'We can bomb Gaza just like the Allies bombed the city of Dresden in Germany during World War II,' he said. Critics argue the statement underscores the scale of destruction being inflicted on the besieged enclave. The attack on Dresden killed an estimated 25,000 civilians and left the city, then famed for its baroque architecture and cultural heritage, in ruins. Historians and ethicists have long debated its military necessity, given that Nazi Germany was already nearing defeat. Critics have labeled it an act of indiscriminate destruction aimed at civilian morale, while supporters at the time argued it was intended to cripple German transport and communication.

Palestinian Authority condemns Netanyahu's 'Greater Israel' vision
The Palestinian Presidency has condemned 'Israeli' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's statements regarding his so-called "Greater Israel" vision. In a statement, the presidency said the comments are "rejected, condemned, and constitute a dangerous provocation and escalation." It added that the remarks reflect the "colonial expansionist policy" governing 'Israel' and its refusal to respect the sovereignty of nations and international agreements. Yesterday, In an interview with 'Israeli' broadcaster i24NEWS, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated he is on a "historic and spiritual mission" for the Jewish people and feels a strong connection to the "vision of Greater Israel". The interview, conducted on Tuesday, occurred as his government was preparing to expand its military operations into the remaining parts of Gaza. During the exchange, interviewer Sharon Gal, a former right-wing member of Knesset, presented Netanyahu with an amulet showing "Greater Israel". When asked if he felt a connection to the vision, Netanyahu replied, "Very much," and described his mission as one of generations. The concept of "Greater Israel" (Eretz Yisrael HaShlema) refers to the historic or desired borders of 'Israel'. While biblical definitions vary, the term is now commonly used by 'Israelis' to refer to the territory of the 'Israel' along with the West Bank and Gaza Strip. This ideology has been a foundational tenet of Netanyahu's Likud party, which traces its roots to Revisionist Zionism and its founder, Ze'ev Jabotinsky. Netanyahu has consistently opposed the creation of a Palestinian state, a stance he has reiterated publicly. Critics argue that his government's settlement expansion policy is the physical embodiment of the "Greater Israel" vision, creating "facts on the ground" that make a viable Palestinian state impossible.
