Many provisions of the coalition agreements of Netanyahu's right-wing religious-settler government focus on the creeping de facto and legal annexation of the West Bank. In this episode, lawyer Sawsan Zahr, who previously served as deputy director of the Adalah Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel, provides an extensive analysis of the policies guiding the work of the Israeli government. She discusses how these policies will impact the future of the West Bank, the viability of the two-state solution, and Israel's international standing, especially in light of the growing international human rights discourse accusing Israel of establishing a system of "exclusive Jewish supremacy" between the river and the sea.
