The Sovereign Movement congratulates the Likud on the appointment of the supporters of sovereignty in the top ten positions- Toward the Trump Plan, the national camp must mobilize
The Sovereignty Movement is pleased with the composition of the Likud list for the next session of Knesset and states that it is an excellent list that says 'yes' to the Land of Israel and 'yes' to sovereignty.
The Sovereignty Movement counts each of the ten first places on the list as promoters of the vision of sovereignty and as people who are committed to act on behalf of its implementation in the coming term. The movement blesses the three new senior members in the Likud leadership, Minister Yoav Galant, former Minister Gideon Sa'ar and mayor of Jerusalem Nir Barkat. These three constitute a significant reinforcement to a leadership striving for sovereignty and committed to the vision".
The co-chairwomen of the Sovereignty Movement, Yehudit Katsover and Nadia Matar, mention that Minister Galant committed himself even before the internal elections, in his visit to Samaria "to the implementation of sovereignty in Judea and Samaria. The settlement enterprise is the key to holding onto sovereignty and Zionism"; former minister Sa'ar expressed a resolute position calling for sovereignty in the areas of Jewish settlement and fighting the idea of a Palestinian state in any form and any scope, and Nir Barkat declared "I commit myself: I will fight with all of my power for the application of sovereignty in the area of Jewish settlement in Judea and Samaria already in the next term".
Katsover and Matar view with the utmost importance the election of this list to the leadership of the ruling party, especially in light of U.S. President Donald Trump's upcoming political plan. "The political and diplomatic system must be prepared for the Trump plan with national and Rightist forces that have the future of the Land of Israel always before their eyes. It is clear to the leaders of the Likud that dividing the Land of Israel and establishing an Arab state in its heart would constitute a security-economic-historical disaster and a betrayal of Zionist ideals".
The two women emphasize that the various political parties understand that the Trump plan would entail establishing an Arab state on 90-95 percent of the territory of Judea and Samaria while encouraging the evacuation of the outlying communities in exchange for compensation. "Faced with such a disastrous plan, the political leadership in Israel will need to prove its leadership and its ability to stand up to a sympathetic administration as it stood up to a hostile administration. We hope that the Prime Minister will be delivered from his distressing criminal investigations and that he will not think of saving himself by a making a turn to the Left".
Katsover and Matar conclude their remarks with words of gratitude to the activists, members and ministers of the Likud and members of Knesset "who have clear vision, have chosen a good team and with the Almighty's help, will move from intentions to actions, to building throughout the Land of Israel and the application of Israeli sovereignty throughout the entire Land".
