Norway Minister of Foreign Affairs:

The ICJ is crystal clear: Israeli policies and practices are to be considered annexation of large parts of the Occupied Palestinian Territory and are in violation of international law.

This is an unequivocal message to Israel, which we expect them to comply with immediately

Another missing settler from Mzafat

🔻Hebrew channel:

About an hour before the start of Shabbat, large forces of the army, police, and Border Police arrived to evacuate the settlement point 'Eli Gaza.' The settlement was established as a temporary point until full settlement in the entire Gaza Strip. About 100 teenagers and families came to spend Shabbat at the place, and now forces have arrived to evacuate them. The teenagers and families stated: "It's shameful that this is what the government is dealing with. Go dismantle Gaza instead of dismantling a few tents!!”

A Foreign, Commonwealth and Development spokesperson on the ICJ ruling:

We have received the Advisory Opinion issued by the International Court of Justice on Friday 19 July and are considering it carefully before responding (1). The UK respects the independence of the ICJ (2).

The Foreign Secretary was clear on his visit to Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories earlier this week that the UK is strongly opposed to the expansion of illegal settlements and rising settler violence (3).

This government is committed to a negotiated two-State solution which can deliver a safe and secure Israel alongside a viable and sovereign Palestinian state. (4)

Translation:
(1) = we need to see if we can wiggle out of endorsing it.
(2) = we don’t like this ruling
(3) = the settlements as they are are fine by us. We just don’t want them to grow and by the way those settlers need to get better at pretending they care.
(4) = Israel does and will always come first.

They think they can last 5 years by siding with the pack and showing no leadership. All in all, we’ll have elections in 3 years. Mark my words.

Senator Bernie Sanders:

I will not attend Netanyahu's speech in Congress as he is a war criminal and what Israel is doing under his leadership.

Comment: Bernie is still a zio yet it’s nice to see the occupation’s PM being treated like the war criminal that he IS.

🔺This badge was spotted on the chest of an Israeli soldier sent to confiscate and displace Palestinians from their tents in the village of Umm al-Khair, south of Hebron.

This patch, also seen on American forces during the Iraq occupation, indicates the soldier's background and underscores the lenient rules of engagement for Israeli soldiers in the occupied West Bank.
