Smotrich this morning after last night's Israeli cabinet decision to 'take over' Gaza : 'We are erasing the Palestinian state - first in action and then officially'.

He has long been cast as a racist nutter but, arguably, has become the most powerful man in Israel.

He’s such a monumental ignoramus and the world is so much more unsafe. Imagine being rebuked, on the international stage, by a Nobel laureate and thinking you know better?

In terms of of the realpolitik, you can look at it as Europe and others making a business play for the Middle East minus Israel - 70 years after the US displaced them over Suez!

Good piece but isn’t that is what is already happening - Europe and others, led by France, coordinating with Saudi et al to put the 2 state solution back on the agenda. For the US the choice will be all that Arab investment or sticking with an increasingly unstable & isolated and Israel.
