Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu says he backs a bill that will annex 19 settlements, and will develop Jerusalem al-Quds. Palestinians have condemned the Israeli premier, saying that he’s violating the international law by pushing for the plan. They also say Israel is trying to change the demography of al-Quds and prevent Palestinians from having an independent state.
