Jaroslav Lukicv reports that two far-right members of Netanyahu's governing coalition, finance finister Bezalel Smotrich and national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, are threatening to withdraw from the coalition if Netanyahu follows through with Biden's ceasefire proposal.

@wdlindsy And it has ever been: one side or the other always "withdraws" for this or that reason.

There is only one solution: a two-state solution. The UN, NATO, the rest of the Mideast, and the US all agree. But Hamas and Israel make more money and keep power if they keep war going.

Time for the US, UN, and NATO to step in and force the deal. Order a cease-fire; put boots on the ground to rescue the hostages. Then set up the Palestinian state as per deal, until stable govt. is in place.

@wdlindsy threatens to pull out of the government if doesn't accept the plan and these two-right wing momzers promise to resign if it does.

Good.

@JBShakerman I agree — though I fear their threatened resignation will only be used by Netanyahu to balk at the idea of a ceasefire.

@wdlindsy not to worry, Netanyahu has absolutely not intention of following through with Biden's ceasefire proposal.

@tersenurse I suspect you're exactly right.
