To give the green light to start ... Washington wants Gantz to agree to Netanyahu's plans to annex the West Bank

The Israeli "Jerusalem Post" newspaper revealed that Washington "wants to obtain the approval of the alternate Prime Minister" Benny Gantz "before granting the green light to Netanyahu to impose Israeli sovereignty on parts of the West Bank this summer.

According to the newspaper, an American source stressed the need for Gantz to agree to the annexation process, in order for the process to win the support of the United States.

The reason for that, according to the newspaper, is because "Israeli law requires the consent of the cabins to impose sovereignty over any part of the British Mandate territory, and although the right has a majority in the cabins, this majority is narrow, and the United States wants the move to gain broad support in Israel, where This move would receive broad support from a unified government that would give it greater power, and prevent the American presidential candidate, "Joe Biden," from easily withdrawing it if he won the elections.

And pointed out that the United States supports the date set by "Netanyahu", because it does not want to implement the annexation process in the early part of the US elections next November, for fear of criticizing "Trump" on the eve of the elections in the event of major violence erupting in the area.

Earlier, the Israeli media reported that the American ambassador, David Friedman, participated last Sunday night in a meeting that included "Netanyahu", "Gantz" and "Ashkenazi", as well as a spokesman for the Knesset and a member of the Israeli-American Committee for the Survey of Settlements, "Yariv Levin" In order to discuss the annexation process.
