President Donald Trump’s proposal to forcibly transfer hundreds of thousands of Palestinians out of the Gaza Strip and develop faces some major obstacle.

The Jewish population in the West Bank grew at twice the rate of the general Israeli population last year.

(AP Photo/Maya Alleruzzo)JERUSALEM – Final election results on Thursday showed Israel in political deadlock once again, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his opponents falling short of a governing majority. Tuesday’s vote, Israel’s fourth parliamentary elections in two years, was widely seen as a referendum on Netanyahu’s fitness to rule while on trial for corruption. A right-wing party led by former Netanyahu ally Naftali Bennett won seven seats and an Arab Islamist party led by Mansour Abbas won four. Israelis vote for party lists rather than candidates in a system that often gives outsized power to small, sectarian factions. Despite the charges against him, Netanyahu’s Likud party received around a quarter of the votes, making it the largest party in parliament.

Exit polls by Israel's three main television channels projected the Religious Zionist Party will win six to seven seats, the best-ever showing by an extreme right-wing party. He is allied with Itamar Ben Gvir, head of the far-right Jewish Power party. Ben Gvir later became a lawyer who represented Jewish extremists suspected of attacking Palestinians. Ben Gvir has said he favors the expulsion of Arabs who are hostile to the state. In the lead-up to the election Ben Gvir sought to distance himself from Kahane's most extreme views.
