Last week @TzipiHotovely repeatedly refused on @BBCNewsnight to set out her vision for "peace" in Israel-Palestine.
So we translated a plan she wrote in 2013 for one, unequal, state.
It's a Jewish supremacist vision enshrining her racist worldview. https://link.medium.com/3orJ7CnbKfb

Hotovely proposes a "gradual imposition of sovereignty".
Step 1: more Jews. Launch a project to bring two million more Jews to Israel-Palestine. This aims to ensure a Jewish majority between the river and the sea.

Step 2: pass a law that to receive citizenship you must do national service (this is generally military service).
This would enable Israel to formally offer citizenship to West Bank Palestinians safe in the knowledge that it would be a meaningless gesture.

Step 3: annex Area C, incorporating 60% of the West Bank, including the settlements and a relatively small number of Palestinians, into Israel. These Palestinians will be offered citizenship.
Step 4 took place in 2018: constitutionally define Israel as a Jewish nation state (just in case the demography doesn't work out).
Some at the time saw this as a prelude to annexation, e.g. https://theconversation.com/israels-new-nation-state-law-restates-the-obvious-100310

Here's the kicker: most West Bank Palestinians (in Areas A & B) will only be offered citizenship when those two million Diaspora Jews arrive.
Meanwhile: one state where Jews have full rights and Palestinians do not. Gaza is ignored.
Let's be clear: Hotovely supports apartheid.

For Hotovely, Palestinian rights are subordinate to Jewish interests, to the Jewish dream of Greater Israel.
She cares nothing for democracy, though seeks to preserve its façade.
Hotovely supports this vision of Jewish supremacy because she is an anti-Palestinian racist.

This racism is a growing force in Israeli society.
We saw it on Thursday night when Jewish supremacist protestors chanted "death to Arabs" in East Jerusalem.
The organisers, Lehava, were once invited by Hotovely to the Knesset. https://twitter.com/NaamodUK/status/1385583891159846918?s=20

Diplomatic immunity does not extend to racism.
Hotovely's ambassadorial role gives her anti-Palestinian racism a veneer of respectability.
This makes her even more dangerous.
Communal organisations honouring her with invitations and platforms reinforce her legitimacy.

The bottom line is that if our community opposes anti-Palestinian racism, it must stop hosting a prominent anti-Palestinian racist who dreams of apartheid.
