Less than a month after the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled
that IsraelÆs occupation of Palestinian territory is unlawful and must
end ôas rapidly as possibleö, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu has said his country will not relinquish control over the
occupied West Bank.
ôItÆs part of our homeland. We intend to stay there,ö Netanyahu said
of the occupied Palestinian land in an interview with TIME Magazine,
published on Thursday.
The Israeli prime minister also reiterated his opposition to the
establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state, suggesting that he
supports limited self-rule for the Palestinians while Israel maintains
security control over the occupied territory.
His comments stand in stark defiance of the United States, which says
it views the two-state solution as the ultimate way to resolve the
conflict.
ôWe donÆt rule their land. We donÆt run Ramallah. We donÆt run Jenin,ö Netanyahu said, referring to Palestinian towns in the West Bank. ôBut
we go in and take action when we have to prevent terrorism.ö

The Israelis treat the West Bank as the Germans did the Sudetenland.
Morally, Netanyahu and Hitler are on the same plateau.
