Arab society is facing a campaign of delegitimization and incitement by Netanyahu and his circle for political reasons; one may disagree with some Arab Knesset members, but we will not accept incitement against an entire community.

دونالد ترامبالرئيس الأمريكي10 hours ago · Masrawy
I can end it immediately. At the request of the countries I seek to protect, we are doing it for a little longer, and in a more civilized way. Saudi Arabia asked me to leave things as they are now for a period, because (Iran) is in a state of disintegration. Qatar, Kuwait, the UAE, Bahrain, all of them prefer a waiting period.

دونالد ترامبالرئيس الأمريكي11 hours ago · فلسطين الآن
The reason we continue this war is that the people we are trying to protect, including Israel, basically the people in the Middle East, prefer that I act the way I am acting now.
دونالد ترامبالرئيس الأمريكي11 hours ago · فلسطين الآن
Aside from the social and health services it was providing to southerners, it failed at the security level to provide stability to the region. Its role was limited to monitoring and recording the violations and breaches committed, whether by Israel or Hezbollah. As for its removal and the non-extension of its mandate, the aim is to reach the imposition of joint patrols between the Lebanese Army and Israeli forces as a fait accompli, and this is unacceptable to Lebanon before reaching an agreement with Israel stipulating its withdrawal from the occupied territories after the party hands over its weapons.
