• Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says that overthrowing Iran’s leadership is his next main mission and claims that goal is within reach.

• Iran has been an Israeli scapegoat at least since 2010 when the Israelis launched an campaign of assassinations of Iranian nuclear scientists and other senior figures, sabotage on Iran's nuclear program.
• The roots dates back to 1968, when the Israelis made the statement from Menachem Begin, "One must make sure that no enemy has a reactor," a doctrine.
• When Menachem Begin started with the words "One must ..," he spoke at the UNGA about himself and the Israelis, as no state saw in other states a nuclear enemy.
• 'Make sure .." refers to "prevent that ..." which in return is to translate in "react preemptively." That is what the Israelis did in Iraq. In Syria even two times.
• The idea was introduced when the Israelis had already three nuclear warheads. The Israeli general Moshe Dayan wanted to use one of them during the six-day war in June 1967 against Arab countries.
• The Israelis have always been the conflict maker and the real threat to the region, now with Netanyahu for more than 30 years.

What is known about the death penalty legislation approved by the Knesset?

Israeli forces have cited security threats or resistance operations in numerous lethal shootings across the occupied West Bank, where rights groups document a permissive open-fire policy against Palestinians.

Amnesty International has repeatedly documented Israeli forces denying prompt medical treatment to wounded Palestinians and obstructing emergency crews at the scene of alleged attacks.

• In March, the Israeli parliament approved a law that seeks the death penalty for Palestinians convicted of deadly attacks.
• The law specifically targets Palestinians by limiting the bulk of the legislation to the military courts that only try Palestinians under occupation.
• Human Rights Watch has called the law discriminatory as it would primarily, if not exclusively, be applied to Palestinians.
• The legislation permits capital punishment under accelerated trial timelines while lowering the judicial threshold required for execution.

The pattern of military impunity drew international focus when Israeli soldier Elor Azaria was sentenced to just 18 months for shooting a wounded and incapacitated Palestinian following a knife attack.

Israel’s Ben-Gvir unveils $20bn plan to relocate Gaza population

Israel’s far-right National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, has unveiled a proposal to relocate nearly two million Palestinians from the Gaza Strip over a seven-year period, Israel’s Channel 14 reported on Thursday.

Dubbed ‘Disengagement 710’, the framework sets incremental targets for what Ben-Gvir’s Otzma Yehudit party describes as “voluntary emigration”. It seeks the departure of 250,000 residents in its first year, 1.1 million within three years and approximately 1.9 million within seven years.

According to Channel 14, the plan hinges on establishing a dedicated Emigration Ministry with its own budget, minister and international negotiating body. Otzma Yehudit has declared the creation of the ministry as a non-negotiable coalition demand for joining any future government following upcoming elections.

Potential destinations examined during preliminary work include Turkiye, Ethiopia, the Democratic Republic of Congo and several Arab states. The plan outlines absorption support packages covering travel, housing and job training for up to 24 months, funded directly by the Israeli state, alongside international matching frameworks.
