I. Against The Palestinian People/Endorsing Genocide And Forceful Transfer Of Palestinians In The Gaza Strip
Itamar Ben Gvir, Minister of National Security, Chairman of Jewish Power Party
“As we pledged, we will continue to fight terrorism, even from the opposition. Together with the chairwoman of the Otzma Yehudit faction, MK Zvika Fogel, we submitted a critical bill that will allow every citizen to know who the terrorists who are being released are, what their crimes are, and what risk they may pose. It is impossible for those who harmed Israeli citizens to return to normal without the public being aware of this. The security of Israeli citizens must be above all else.”

“The opening of the Netzarim highway[1] this morning and the entry of tens of thousands of Gazans into the northern Gaza Strip are images of Hamas' victory and another humiliating part of the reckless deal. This is not what "complete victory" looks like - this is what complete surrender looks like. The heroic IDF soldiers[2] did not fight and give their lives in the Strip to make these images possible. We must return to war - and destroy!”

Those ‘Palestinians’ who fear having their feelings hurt are the same ones who, on October 7, cheered when babies were burned alive in the Gaza Envelope.[4].

This part of the war goals was added during the ministerial council upon the Religious Zionism Party’s request on Friday. The ‘Iron Wall’[6] will be a strong and ongoing campaign against terrorist elements and perpetrators, designed to protect the settlements and the settlers and for the security of the entire State of Israel, for which the settlements are its security belt.

“The thought that, on the other side, there are people who are unaware of the fact that once all the hostages are handed over, there will be nothing to prevent us from returning to fighting is a bit naive. Hamas will set a condition that the release of all the hostages entails a withdrawal and an end to the war. This is not something the State of Israel can allow. The Hamas regime must be brought back and eliminated, or they will eliminate us. There is no other choice.”

“I hereby undertake that if God forbid, there is a withdrawal from the Philadelphia Axis (before the war goals are achieved) or if we do not return to fighting to complete the war goals – I will resign as a government minister. This deal is difficult to digest and involves heavy prices. Therefore, as was the case with the previous vote, I will make my final decision only after the full details of the deal are presented. Our significant and painful concession is over control of the Netzarim corridor, which means the ability of Gazans to move to the north of the Strip. Will this concession make it challenging to resume fighting? The answer is yes. Will it prevent us from resuming fighting? The answer is no. Regarding the release of prisoners, the vast majority of those released are junior activists who were arrested in Gaza (needing investigation). In addition to them are several hundred involved in terrorism, of which about 150 are terrorists who were sentenced to life imprisonment. Those who were involved in transporting, carrying out, or preparing weapons for attacks will be deported and will not be allowed to return to the Judea and Samaria territories. This heavy price involves risk; this fact should not be obscured.”

X Platform 16 January 2025
Itamar Ben Gvir, Minister of National Security, Chairman of Jewish Power Party
“The deal that is taking shape is reckless. It includes the release of hundreds of murderous terrorists, the return of thousands of terrorists to the northern Gaza Strip, a withdrawal from the Philadelphia axis, and a cessation of fighting. Thus, the deal will effectively erase the achievements of the war.
Not only that, it does not lead to the release of all the hostages, it leaves the fate of the remaining hostages who are not included in the deal uncertain, and it will lead to an end to the war when Hamas has not yet been defeated, with a significant ability to rebuild itself. When you see the jubilation of Hamas supporter Ayman Odeh, the dancing in Gaza, the celebrations in villages in Judea and Samaria - you understand which side surrendered in this deal.
Therefore, if this reckless deal is approved and implemented, the Otzma Yehudit party will not be part of the government and will withdraw from it. If the war on Hamas is renewed with force to decide and realise the war's unachieved goals, we will return to the government. I also call on members of the Religious Zionist Party, as well as the ideological Knesset members in the Likud, to act similarly and together with us to prevent the implementation of the reckless surrender deal.
The willingness to pay heavy prices to release the hostages also exists with us. We are ready to do anything that will lead to their release, as long as the price does not include a much heavier price. The existing deal increases Hamas' appetite and motivation to carry out another 7.10 massacre, thereby subduing Israel time and time again - this is in addition to the number of terrorist attacks that will, God forbid, shed a lot of Jewish blood.
To release the hostages, humanitarian aid being delivered to Gaza must be stopped entirely. Not ‘control the aid mechanisms,’ not reduce them, but prevent them. Stop the transfer of fuel, electricity, and water.
Only this way will Hamas release our hostages without endangering the security of Israel alongside a decisive and crushing military defeat. Only this way will we defeat this murderous terrorist organisation. Therefore, even at this time, I still call on the Prime Minister to come to his senses, avoid this terrible deal, and take these steps that will lead to the defeat of Hamas and the release of our hostages without surrendering to it.
If he does not do so and when the government and cabinet decision is made, as mentioned, Otzma Yehudit, under my leadership, will not overthrow Netanyahu and will not act with the left and its goals against the government. However, it will not be able to be part of a government that approves a deal that constitutes a massive prize for Hamas and which could bring upon us the disaster of the seven next October—and will withdraw from it.
If the war on Hamas is renewed with force to decide and realise the war's unachieved goals, we will return to the government.”

“The deal that will be presented to the government is a harmful and dangerous deal for the national security of the State of Israel. Alongside the great joy and excitement of the return of every kidnapped man and woman, the agreement takes back many achievements of the war in which the heroes of this nation risked their lives and will cost us, God forbid, much blood. We oppose it with all our might. We will not be silent. The voice of our brother's blood cries out to us. *A clear condition for our remaining in the government is the absolute certainty of returning to war with great force, on a full scale and in a new configuration until complete victory over all its components, foremost among them the destruction of the Hamas terrorist organization and the return of all the hostages to their homes.* The Prime Minister and I have had feverish conversations in the last two days. He knows the detailed demands of religious Zionism, and the ball is in his hands.”

“The current deal does not return all the hostages but rather condemns the rest to almost certain death. It brutally turns them into hostages in the hands of Hamas. This dangerous deal keeps Hamas in place, returns hundreds of Gazans to the northern Gaza Strip, and allows it to rebuild its strength and prepare for future attacks on us. In this deal, terrorists with blood-stained hands are released, and as reality has proven, they will return to carry out deadly terror attacks. It also increases the motivation to kidnap soldiers and civilians because it becomes a very profitable deal. The discussion would be completely different if the agreement guaranteed everyone's return. But here, we are strengthening those who want to destroy us.”

Tzvi Succot, MK, Religious Zionism Party
“Again, this morning, too: the only way to return all the kidnapped is to break Hamas. We should take away humanitarian aid from the movement, implement the general’s plan despite the legal obstacles raised by the military prosecution, annex territories from Gaza, and return them only after all hostages are released.”
X Platform 14 January 2025
Itamar Ben Gvir, Minister of National Security, Chairman of Jewish Power Party
“The deal that is being formed is terrible. I know the details of it well. It includes the release of hundreds of murderous terrorists from prisons, the return of Gazans, including thousands of terrorists, to the northern Gaza Strip, the withdrawal of the IDF from the Netzarim axis, and the return of the threat to the residents of the Gaza envelope. This effectively means erasing the war achievements in the Gaza Strip so far, thanks to the blood of our soldiers. Not only that, it does not lead to the release of all the hostages. It seals the fate of the remaining hostages who are not included in the deal to death.
This is not a ‘hard choice’ that must be made to return the kidnapped. It is a conscious choice at the cost of the lives of many other Israeli citizens, who, unfortunately, will pay the price of this deal with their lives. We have already seen the fruits of these deals in the past. We learned there is no cover for all the promises that ‘we will get along later.’
Over the past year, through our political power, we have repeatedly prevented this deal from coming to fruition. However, since then, additional elements have been added to the government, which now supports the deal and no longer constitutes a balancing act.
This means that the Prime Minister will refrain from signing the deal only if the force opposing it is large enough to prevent him from doing so. The power of Otzma Yehudit is insufficient in the current composition of the government to constitute a lever of pressure to prevent the deal, and our withdrawal alone will not prevent its implementation.*
Therefore, I call on my friend, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, to join me in full cooperation against the terrible deal being crafted and to inform the Prime Minister clearly and firmly that if the deal goes through, we will resign from the government together.
I emphasize that even if we oppose, we will not bring down Netanyahu. Still, this move is our only chance to prevent its implementation and to prevent the surrender of the State of Israel to Hamas after more than a year of bloody war, in which over 400 IDF soldiers fell in the Gaza Strip, and to ensure that their deaths will not be in vain.
Along with this, I call on the Prime Minister to come to his senses and take steps that will lead to the defeat of Hamas and the release of our hostages without abandoning Israel's security: completely stop the transfer of humanitarian aid and fuel, electricity, and water to Gaza, along with continuing the military crushing of Hamas until its complete defeat.”

Crying for generations!
"The next deal is a deal that poses a threat to the future of the State of Israel. In the Sinwar family bank, Mohammed, his brother, is no less a monster than Yahya, who was eliminated. Freeing hundreds or thousands of Sinwars is a lack of national responsibility; it is support for terrorism. Tomorrow, they will kidnap Israelis while travelling in South America, and they will demand the release of terrorists from prison. What will we do then? Ending the war now has only one meaning: Failure to achieve the goals of the war and strengthening Hamas's position. Trump is not the Messiah. Also, if he does not lead an attack on Iran tomorrow, it will not reduce Hamas's resolve to prepare for the next massacre. Most importantly, deciding today to free 30 kidnapped soldiers, giving up every goal for which the IDF soldiers fought so heroically, means condemning 68 others to death and losing the ability to manage negotiations in the future. This is a failed deal."

Therefore, everyone should be released at once! I'm not talking about the outrageous price we'll pay. But the return of all our hostages is the unwavering foundation. Either all or all!

"First, I want to address those who go to these areas to repair the vehicle and save money.[10] Friends, this is serious. You are risking your lives. You are risking the lives of IDF soldiers and, ultimately, the money you save. Let us talk about this moment: where does the money go? Why is the repair price cheaper in Nablus or Huwara than in Kfar Saba? The reason is simple. The parts were stolen, although we paid their full price. What a crazy situation! They steal cars here like they have never done before. This is why the repair cost is cheap. Repairing the vehicle is a violation of the law. Besides, you and we all pay the price in full when you fix your cars there. More importantly and more seriously, you should pay your taxes here in Israel, where the money goes to the IDF, transportation, education, and the welfare of our people. The money you pay in the PA areas goes to terrorists who kill Jews. There is a religious obligation that says, 'Live, and your brother lives with you.'

The move by US President Joe Biden, just before the end of his term, is a direct continuation of a unilateral policy that is disconnected from reality. While Israel is fighting for its life against murderous terrorism that threatens its citizens, Biden is once again choosing to punish precisely the pioneers of Jewish settlement – those who are implementing our historical right to the Land of Israel.
The claims about ‘settler violence’ are false and serve the false narrative aimed at undermining our right to the land. Instead of helping Israel and supporting the just fight against terrorism, the Biden administration continues to criticize those who guard the country’s borders.
