by Jordan Hilger, Worthy News Correspondent
(Worthy News) – Settler leaders in Israel this week are asking Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to ignore the US request to wait till after elections to annex areas of the Jordan Valley and West Bank and move ahead applying Israeli sovereignty to the historic land.
Netanyahu said Saturday that Israel was “already at the height of the process” of mapping the land to be reacquired as part of the Jewish state per the “Peace to Prosperity” plan of the Trump administration, which US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman said Sunday ought not to be completed until after elections on March 2nd.
In spite of Friedman’s proviso Jordan Valley Regional Council chairman David Elhayani called on Netanyahu to “to fulfill his commitment to the residents of Judea, Samaria and the Jordan Valley to apply sovereignty before the elections, and to do this as soon as possible” and to put the Trump administration “in its place.”
The peace plan envisions a bilateral commission with US approval overseeing the reacquisition of Judea and Samaria by Israel.
