Dismantlement and annexation or political separation – the State of Israel must decide

The MIND Israel project brings together two opposing visions for the future of the state: the Kibbutz Movement calls for peace, equality, and strengthening society; the Yesha Council demands sovereignty, dismantling the Palestinian Authority, and a security decision. The article presents both positions as the only alternatives.

Ahead of the elections, the MIND Israel project brings together two opposing visions for the future of the State of Israel. The Kibbutz Movement, through its secretary-general, calls for pursuing peace, defensible borders, strengthening Israeli society, equality in burden-sharing, and developing the periphery. In contrast, the Yesha Council, through its chairman, demands dismantling the Palestinian Authority, canceling the Oslo Accords, applying Israeli sovereignty in Judea and Samaria, and self-government for Arab cities under Israeli security responsibility. The article presents both positions as the only alternatives, while emphasizing existential threats to Israel as justification for a decision. The article is defined as a collaborative piece sponsored by MIND Israel.
