8:03 pm
little, small, treacherous finance minister. the leader of the far right religious zionist party support is really sediments in occupied palestinian territory, even though they are illegal under international law. it m r been giver who was convicted of incitement to racism in 2007 will be security minister. a law passed this week will give him unprecedented power over the police force. had him hours a religious nationalist known for anti l g b t q views will hold a deputy post in the education ministry and now himself is still on trial for alleged bribery fraud and breach of trust. he says he's innocent, fell high right, has more from west jerusalem. he's the longest subbing prime minister in israeli history. but to get this fall he had to partner up with a coalition which is a mix of an ultra orthodox and right wing blog. and these are the most right wing politicians. we seen there was some points on the fringes of politics. and now he,
8:04 pm
they are on the main stage to get his, there was an agreement made that they would pass several new laws, bank of the law, their renewal and march, you know, with some of the loads that were posture in the last 48 hours morrison of getting these decisions through these decisions, mixing things up. it means that someone like ben cafe, who has also has, has a conviction of racism is now going to house, keeping an unprecedented power over the police. for example, there is a law that has been they looking into which is to undermine in the way the supreme court, if a law is put down by the supreme court, they can bring that by. this means that a lot of politicians, including benjamin netanyahu, if they have any convictions or for him in his example, he's on trial for corruption case. it means that gives them that power. now even though locals we've spoken to has said yes, processes, democratic to get to this place. they are very deeply concerned of. some of the

laws have been put through. and the question is, what happens next? now while the leader of the palestinian group, hamas which governs the gaza, strippers worn that israel's new coalition government will trigger major unrest middle other hundreds. and it's clear that today with facing a new sinus government, the most extreme, a terrorist racist and fascist government, the policies that clearly escalate the aggression against what we hold sacred people and palestinian land. this opens the way to real escalation on the ground in all the rain is. now if you've heard a new israeli government is promising to prioritize the expansion of illegal settlements in the occupied west bank and east jerusalem. the abraham has more from the occupied west bank on the ground. the israeli supplement expansion has never stopped. this illegal is really supplement of magdalene has been inching closer towards palestinian homes, hidden closer village in the north of the occupied west bank. and while
8:06 pm
