Once again, the chairman of the Bayit Yehudi party, Minister Naftali Bennet, uses his English oratory skills to speak with the BBC, conducting an interview to counter the position that the PA (Palestine Authority) has rights to Eretz Yisrael, including Yehuda and Shomron.

Once again, the term “apartheid” is used to describe Israel, and Bennet explains how Arabs have voting rights, are members of Knesset and even have a justice serving on the Supreme Court. Therefore, there is no legitimacy to making such a comparison.

“The Israelis aren’t going anywhere. The Palestinians aren’t going anywhere. We are not two nations in love and we have to figure out how to live side by side…”

Bennet is non-apologetic in the face of the BBC’s view, which is clearly supportive of the PA position.
