Benjamin Netanyahu on Gaza Strip
← Back to Benjamin Netanyahu ProfileBenjamin Netanyahu, outlining his strategy to Likud members in 2019, revealed a plan to divide Palestinian territories, a policy later scrutinized in light of the 2023 conflict.
“This is part of our strategy – to isolate the Palestinians in Gaza from the Palestinians in the West Bank.”
“Palestinian and Syrian grievances against Israel were not rooted in israel's holding on to this or that territory. That's why they attacked us from the Golan, Judea and Samaria, and Gaza when those areas were in their hands. Their grievances were directed against Israel's very existence, in any territory.”
