West Bank, Palestine.

Following up on a previous blog post, the annexation of Palestine is at a sudden halt. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu scheduled the moving into Palestinian land on July 1st but due to various reasons, the annexation did not start. Countries across the globe such as Germany, France, and Jordan refused to acknowledge the new map Netanyahu's administration introduced which could be many of the reasons why he has not followed through on his plan.

Let's break it down.

Everything that could have gone wrong for Netanyahu did and then some. He is currently on trial under corruption charges and this has negatively impacted his authority. As he is consumed with proving his innocence, Israel has been experiencing a second wave of coronavirus. Hence why the upcoming Prime Minister, Benny Gantz, has been trying to take control of Israel. Although he is to be sworn in 2021, Netanyahu has been under flames since July started and now Israel needs a new face for its own sake. It is extremely common for one person to be the face of the operation and for another person to do the decision making.

There are one too many problems which is why the annexation of Palestine is on pause. The question remains, will Israel click play or rewind & rewrite a new narrative? A narrative where Palestine will be free.
