Lior Amihai, the director of the Israeli NGO Peace Now, has raised alarms regarding the intentions of Benjamin Netanyahu's government. He claims that the coalition in power seeks to annex territories in the West Bank.

Amihai describes this agenda as being driven by a messianic ideology, suggesting that it aims to establish a state characterized by Jewish supremacy.

Since late 2022, the government has reportedly institutionalized the expansion of settlements in the West Bank, raising significant concerns among peace advocates and members of the public.
