We, ministers and Knesset members, call for the immediate initiation of sovereignty and the application of Israeli law over Judea and Samaria.
This is a demand to approve a government decision to begin sovereignty, and to do so before the end of the Knesset’s summer session.
After the historic achievements of the State of Israel under the leadership of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in confronting the threats from Iran and terrorism, it is necessary to complete the Zionist vision, eliminate hopes for the establishment of a Palestinian state, and secure a promising future in the heart of our homeland.
Strategic cooperation and support from the United States and President Donald Trump demonstrate a willingness to assist Israel in securing its security and asserting its rights.
The July 1, 2025 Supreme Court ruling proves that the absence of sovereignty in Judea and Samaria is what creates legal and security risks for Israel. The time for sovereignty has come!

Palestine could unconditionally release any remaining military prisoners and the IOF would still keep emulating the US POW/MIA policy of insisting that an unfalsifiable number of dead soldiers are actually still living hostages being secretly held underground in indefinite suspended animation.
Israel feels legitimate to ask for the disarmament of Gaza, yet doesn't want to stop occupying/destroying Palestine so the palestinians are left with no other choice, that's an inattackable argument justifying Hamas' violence since peaceful means 'were attempted'&'lead to nowhere'.
It's known, although we may have forgot, that Fatah reacted favorably to the Oslo accords in 1993&1995, they stopped the hostilities and even recognized Israel, they also disarmed the militias by only keeping an official police force(, from wiki : « the group disengaged from armed conflict against Israel around the time of the Oslo Accords, when it recognised Israel, which gave it limited control over the occupied Palestinian territories. »). And where did that lead them ?
Netanyahu and Israel just trampled the Oslo accords when he came into power after Yitzhak Rabin's assassination in 1995, by unapologetically expanding their colonization of Palestine, leading to the existence of Hamas and the discreditation of the ~naive Fatah(, cf. the link above for a short timeline).
The only moments when Israel and Palestine were walking towards peace was when the greedy Netanyahu wasn't in government(, e.g. the accords of camp David in 2000).
Just to say that it's false to claim that the palestinians were the ones refusing a two-states solution(, even Hamas only asks for the 1967 borders in its 2017 charter !(, art.20)), that it could never have happened only because of them, that's another lie, history says otherwise.
That's the wrong instance to debate such things by preaching to the choir, so w/e.
