Ofer Winter, chairman of the 'Am Israel Party, delivered a sharp speech at the International Counter-Terrorism Institute's conference, denouncing the Oslo Accords and advocating for a fundamental shift in Israeli policy toward Palestinians. Winter declared that the concept of a Palestinian people is a fabrication intended to destroy Israel. "There is no Palestinian people, it's a lie. There is no Palestinian state. The entire purpose of the idea is the destruction of the State of Israel," Winter stated to the attendees. He urged a wake-up call, emphasizing the need for clarity both internally and internationally, asserting that negotiations over Israel's existence are impossible and a Palestinian state will never be established. Winter believes that the moment the enemy understands its goal of destroying Israel is unattainable, the decisive moment begins, and therefore, the Oslo Accords are defunct. He further criticized senior political leadership and the Prime Minister, highlighting a perceived disconnect between public statements and actions. "When the Prime Minister says a Palestinian state will not be established here but gives legitimacy to its establishment, as in the 21-point plan, he is actually saying one thing and doing another," Winter argued, adding that hesitation by Israel leads to global indecision. He identified recognition of a Palestinian state as the root of the problem.
