Banners in West Bank Proclaim ‘No Future in Palestine’ — What Does It Mean?
December 16, 2024On Friday, policy analyst Fadi Quran reported in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, that Israelis are putting up billboards across the West Bank with the message, “You have no future in Palestine”.
The billboards feature images of ongoing Palestinian displacement.
Israel has long wielded housing demolitions as a means to displace the occupied West Bank’s Palestinian population. Since the 7 October Hamas-led attack and Israel’s war on Gaza, however, the practice has been turbocharged, with Israeli bulldozers tearing down people’s homes on a near-daily basis.
According to UN figures, Israeli forces have destroyed over 1,000 structures across the West Bank, displacing around 2,250 people.
Overseeing the drive is Bezalel Smotrich, Israel’s far-right finance minister, who also wields power over authorities in the West Bank – and is a settler himself.
