  • Mahmoud Abbas
    Mahmoud Abbas “We stand ready to work with you [Donald Trump] to achieve peace during you tenure. This would be guided by the two-state solution on international legitimacy. This vision seeks the establishment of the State of Palestine and the State of Israel living side by side in peace and security.” 2 hours ago
  • Craig Kennedy
    Craig Kennedy “Moscow now faces a dilemma: the longer it puts off a ceasefire, the greater the risk that credit events - such as corporate and bank bailouts - uncontrollably arise and weaken Moscow's negotiating leverage.” 2 hours ago
  • Recep Tayyip Erdogan
    Recep Tayyip Erdogan “As regards the issue of natural gas, Slovakia was disconnected from gas with termination of transit via Ukraine. We discussed this matter, we have the TurkStream gas pipeline. Let's make a step and discuss this topic at the level of energy ministers. The demand of Slovakia for natural gas should be satisfied. I suggested solving this issue through talks with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Mr. Putin. I hope we will be able to have communications, to start telephone diplomacy as early as this week.” 2 hours ago
  • Emmanuel Macron
    Emmanuel Macron “The challenge after the fighting ends will be to provide Ukraine with guarantees against any return to war on its territory and guarantees for our own security.” 3 hours ago
  • Yara Hawari
    Yara Hawari “While the Gaza ceasefire is a positive step the danger to the occupied West Bank from an Israeli invasion continues to rise. It's brought about a huge amount of relief that the bombardment will stop, but I think crucially the ceasefire does not mean an end to the occupation neither in Gaza or the West Bank. So people are under no illusion that this means an end to Israeli control over their lives. I think people are pessimistic as to whether the ceasefire will actually hold because they know the Israeli regime is already trying to sabotage it. The situation in the occupied West Bank remains as precarious as ever. We saw a year of genocide in Gaza go unchecked so the big question is could they do the same in the West Bank? I'm afraid without accountability measures the answer is yes.” 7 hours ago
  • Joe Biden
    Joe Biden “These are exceptional circumstances, and I cannot in good conscience do nothing. Baseless and politically motivated investigations wreak havoc on the lives, safety and financial security of targeted individuals and their families. The issuance of these pardons should not be mistaken as an acknowledgment that any individual engaged in any wrongdoing, nor should acceptance be misconstrued as an admission of guilt for any offense. Our nation owes these public servants a debt of gratitude for their tireless commitment to our country.” 7 hours ago
  • Ali Jarbawi
    Ali Jarbawi “Hamas's parades through Gaza on Sunday are more than a message to the international community that it is in control. They also reflect the reality on the ground. Hamas was there before the war and they're there now.” 17 hours ago
  • Ibrahim Madhoun
    Ibrahim Madhoun “The message is that Hamas is 'the day after' for the war. They're conveying that Hamas must be a part of any future arrangements, or at least, be coordinated with.” 17 hours ago

“What we can be assured of is that the Trump administration is not interested in the establishment of a fully sovereign Palestinian state along the 1967 borders, and is not against Israel's plans to annex large swaths of the West Bank. In fact, some reports suggest that the Trump administration may have promised Netanyahu US support for the annexation of certain areas of the West Bank in exchange for his acceptance of the ceasefire deal, which Israel may not even follow through past phase 1. In such a scenario, if it indeed transpires, Trump gets what he wants, which is a political victory, and Netanyahu gets what he wants, which is the continued settler colonisation of Palestine.”

“It's going to be very difficult [to maintain the agreement between Israel and Hamas]. My sense, unfortunately, is that it is very unlikely we move past Phase One and toward a permanent peace. There are endless openings for spoilers on both sides, and serious disagreements remain about the details of the agreement's next steps. In Israel, there are many people who would like to see this war prosecuted indefinitely. Maybe they want to keep northern Gaza as a permanent buffer zone. Maybe they want to depopulate it and resettle it completely. Maybe they want to try to completely destroy Hamas, as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu originally promised. Or maybe they want perpetual war as cover for aggressive actions elsewhere, such as in the West Bank. On the Palestinian side, there are plenty of opportunities for spoiler violence by hard-liners, by militant factions who don't like the way things are going, and by people who just want revenge for all the horrible things that have been done to them. If such violence occurs, the Israelis won't respond in a positive fashion.”

“Israel's goal is to settle in Gaza, eliminate the Palestinian community in the West Bank and ultimately annex this territory. This is where Israel wants to go. We must prevent this. Whereas only a tiny handful of Western countries are supporting Israel militarily, politically, economically, and morally, the inadequate reaction from Muslim countries has led to this situation. It is crucial that we continue coordinating our initiatives and take decisive measures against those who are behind the genocide in Palestine. It is paramount that we impose an arms embargo, stop trade and isolate Israel.”

“The war in Lebanon is becoming more costly to Israel, which may be looking to draw the conflict to a close by obtaining security guarantees in southern Lebanon. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said earlier that there had been certain progress” in talks about a ceasefire in Lebanon, but Hezbollah said it hadn't received any peace proposal yet. What they mean is that in the talks with the United States and others, perhaps the Lebanese government, there were some steps forward but nothing that can yet be presented to Hezbollah. In the process of dividing and occupying the Gaza Strip, the big prize for Israel is not Gaza. It's the West Bank. The appointment of Yechiel Leiter, who lives in the Gush Etzion settlement, as the next Israeli ambassador to the US signals the Netanyahu government intends to work with President-elect Donald Trump to expand Israeli settlements. Netanyahu is dreaming of the West Bank, and he could even barter some sort of agreement in Gaza in exchange.”

“The only way to remove this danger from the agenda is to apply Israeli sovereignty over the settlements in Judea and Samaria. I have directed the start of professional work to prepare the necessary infrastructure to apply Israeli sovereignty over Judea and Samaria [the West Bank].”

“UNRWA is the backbone of all humanitarian efforts in Gaza and … the West Bank, in addition to the neighbouring countries. The other humanitarian organizations, both the voluntary and the other UN organizations, are extremely clear in saying that they can simply not operate if UNRWA is not there. Norway has not only condemned this, we have also made clear that our view is that this decision is illegal under international law. Nobody stands above the law that also applies to Israel.”

“Michigan has one of the, if not the, highest concentrations of Arab and Muslim voters in the United States, and it's a swing state. These are people who have real, direct, ongoing contact with their families in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon, who are hearing what's happening and are angry-very angry. The Harris campaign faces a tough choice because Israel remains overwhelmingly popular but increasingly unpopular, especially as this war grows more unpopular with Democrats and many, though not all, independents. Trying to thread the needle between her supporters who back Israel and her potential supporters, who are often personally affected by these ongoing wars and are therefore deeply angry about the Biden administration's support for Israel.”

“There are more than 20,000 Palestinians who await medical evacuation in Gaza who can't be treated there and can't get out. Only several hundred have been allowed to leave since May. In the occupied West Bank, the organisation is working closely with Palestinians to document settler violence and ethnic cleansing of Palestinian communities while trying to assist prisoners. Access is very restricted. For instance, the ICRC [International Committee of the Red Cross] has not had any access to any Israeli prison in the past year, which is a dire violation of prisoners' human rights and of international law. We're getting a lot of medical requests that we can't fully address because of the sheer amount and scale of violations. We're now trying to address the needs of people who weigh just 40kg and are in very bad health conditions after long months of not getting proper medical care and nutrition.”

“The fascists and the fanatics of the Israeli government that have been carrying out the genocide in Gaza this past year, and that are responsible for expanding that war against the people in Gaza and later on against the people of the West Bank, are the ones who are expanding the war against Lebanon and beyond. Instead of finishing up with one war, accepting a ceasefire, they decided that they're going to start another war. The world, the so-called international community, including the 'Western world' community, is seeing more and more that this Israeli government is simply mad. It's actually going crazy. It's totally apocalyptical.”

“The first half of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's speech at the UN General Assembly was quite argumentative, calling out the US for refusing a permanent ceasefire earlier in the war on Gaza, refusing to recognise the state of Palestine, and turning a blind eye to Israeli aggression. However, overall Abbas seems to me like a statesman who never changed. For the past 50 years, he's been repeating the same arguments, making the same points - again and again. Over the past year, as Israel was carrying out its genocide in Gaza and its war crimes in the occupied West Bank, Abbas has been missing in action. With the exception of a few appearances here and there and international forums, Abbas is nowhere to be seen in Palestine, speaking on behalf of or defending the people of Gaza. While Abbas offers strong arguments against occupation and apartheid, he is still making the same gestures towards Israel, speaking about peace and security.”

“In Gaza, not only are children dying, but also the United Nations system. The values the West claims to defend are dying, the truth is dying, and the hopes of humanity to live in a more just world are dying - one by one. I am asking you bluntly here: Are those in Gaza and the occupied West Bank not human beings? Do children in Palestine have no rights? Just as Hitler was stopped by the alliance of humanity 70 years ago, Netanyahu and his murder network must be stopped by the 'alliance of humanity'.”

“Al Jazeera has been one of the most important sources of information on Israeli bombing and starving Palestinian civilians in Gaza and repression in the West Bank, so Israel shuts down its Ramallah bureau after already have shut its East Jerusalem bureau.”

“We urge an expansion of this suspension and call on all countries to impose a complete arms embargo on Israel. Unless consequences are real, Netanyahu will not end his aggression on Gaza and the West Bank, and will not stop violating international law and threatening the security of the whole region.”

“It's too soon to tell [what this means for the government]. The name of the game here is sustainability - meaning will these demonstrations continue? Will the strike that is taking place be a one-off thing that Netanyahu is not making a big deal of so people can vent frustration and anger? Or is this going to be a recurring theme? The fronts [in the West Bank and Lebanon] are real, but he did exacerbate them? Yes. Is he flirting constantly with escalation? Yes. He needs war to continue.”

“I don't believe there is a plan for Israel to annex a wide swath of the West Bank. This government is intent on weakening the Palestinian Authority. With this [West Bank] operation, Israel is weakening the Palestinian Authority to the point that there's not going to be anyone to negotiate with, and that is the grand plan that the government has. Mr Netanyahu is doing something very problematic here, very ominous here, in that he is creating a situation, an environment in which further negotiations with the Palestinians three, four, five years from now would probably be impossible because of the weakness and fragility of the Palestinian Authority.”

“Israel is not only committing genocide in Gaza, but it is now extending this war to the West Bank, Lebanon, and potentially other nations it deems as enemies which we cannot know or predict. The Netanyahu government continues to play with fire. It is endangering the future of the entire region to maintain its position. Everyone who remains silent on the Gaza issue, especially those who support Israel unconditionally, is under a burden. Israel's barbarity must finally come to an end.”

“The ongoing Israeli military operation in the occupied West Bank is not just raids … it's an act of war. What Israel is doing is conducting a war on occupied people which is a total violation of international law on how an occupying power should behave. They are using air strikes, air force, tanks, bulldozers, and what they are trying to do is to transfer the actual genocide and ethnic cleansing ongoing in Gaza into the West Bank. The amount of damage Israeli forces inflicted on the Palestinian territory's infrastructure also indicates their goal to make it uninhabitable for its citizens. They destroyed water pipelines, electricity lines, houses, schools - what do they want? They want to create a situation where we cannot live in our country and that is exactly what the settlers' plans are about. It's about Judaization of the West Bank, about annexing the West Bank and killing any opportunity for the Palestinians to be free and to have a state of their own.”
