In September of 2023, Benjamin Netanyahu spoke at the United Nations General Assembly and presented a map of what he called “a new Middle East,” he used a marker to depict a trade corridor that was planned to run through the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Occupied Palestine. His map labeled the entirety of historic Palestine as “Israel,” deleting the West Bank and Gaza.
