Knesset votes 68-9 for resolution against Palestinian state
Knesset votes 68-9 for resolution against Palestinian state
The motion opposes the establishment of a Palestinian state "on any piece of land west of the Jordan River."
Note that Knesset has 120 seats (not obvious from the article). (also, of course, a large fraction of people between the river and the sea don't get to vote for any of its seats)
The Labor Party boycotted the vote and its members were not in attendance. The Arab parties voted against the measure.
Some more important context for people.
That's hardly surprising
It would have been seen by terrorists as a reward for Oct 7 and encourage further attacks.
OTOH establishing a Palestinian state would have been a precursor to a 2SS which is a hopeful path towards peace.
Likud (and Hamas) are both against a 2SS therefore, as you say, this vote count is no surprise.
