Israeli minister threatens Palestinian President Abbas

Israel's Channel 7 quoted Bennett as saying that the Palestinian President is threatening Israel to head to UN institutions, adding that Israel will find a way to prevent him. Bennett stressed that Israel will know how to behave with the Palestinian president and chairman of the Fatah movement and will condemn him for attempting to cause harm to Israel.

Bennett said that "let Abbas, who doesn't have security, army forces or economy, to confront us." Adding, the Israeli Army is able to occupy the Palestinian cities during less than two minutes. Bennett advised Abbas not to threaten Israel because he has no state with borders and no potentials, despite that the UN has recognized his state, yet it doesn't mean anything to Israel.

Bennett said that he advised Abbas to continue with the negotiations with Israel, adding that he is not against the negotiations, but against using the negotiations to blackmailing Israel.
He also said that Israel must not be afraid of Abbas' threats regarding their decision to go to the United Nations.

Bennett demanded that Israel must ask itself a deep question of what is the point to continue with the negotiations, if Abbas is still determined not to recognize Israel as a 'Jewish State', adding that the land is the land of Israel and the Jews that God promised them, a thing that Muslims and Christians refuse.

Bennett said that the US proposal to release 400 Palestinian prisoners is just rumours, saying that the Israeli government didn't discuss these proposals in its session. He added that the Palestinian persistence on releasing the Palestinian prisoners who live inside Israel, is –according to Bennett- an attack against Israel.

Bennett considered that the Palestinian President's insistence on the releasing of the prisoners is just "dreams and illusions", and that his party will be ready to leave the Netanyahu's government if Israel approved to release the prisoners.
