State Dept spox: The United States rejects recent statements from Israeli Ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir advocating for the resettlement of Palestinians outside of Gaza. This rhetoric is inflammatory and irresponsible.

But, they can't. They just can't. I have no idea how to settle it, but they both need to make peace.
Everyone deserves a home.

The US hasn't been able to put brakes on that process no matter who's in the WH, and Trump didn't give a F.
700,000 Israeli Settlers in the W. Bank and E. Jerusalem. 144 "legal" settlements, 100 "illegal".
Gaza it more intractable. Egypt won't let Gazans in.

JERUSALEM Israels Supreme Court on Monday struck down a key component of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahus contentious judicial overhaul, a decision that threatens to reopen the fissures in Israeli society that preceded the countrys ongoing war against Hamas.
Those divisions were largely been put aside while the country focuses on the war, which was triggered by a bloody cross-border attack by Hamas. Mondays court decision could reignite those tensions, which sparked months of mass protests against the government and had rattled the cohesion of the powerful military.
There was no immediate reaction from Netanyahu.
In Mondays 8-7 majority decision, the court narrowly voted to overturn a law passed in July that prevents judges from overturning government decisions they deem unreasonable.
Opponents had argued that Netanyahus efforts to remove the standard of reasonability opens the door to corruption and improper appointments of unqualified cronies to important positions.
The law was the first in the planned overhaul of the justice system.
