Afrasianet - Ibrahim Abrach - The new American settlement project called the Century Deal is based on the belief that all the previous Israeli resistance and the American settlement have collapsed and that the Palestinians can no longer withstand a belief that the Americans will find out that it is misplaced and the Manama Conference with all its economic temptations will not achieve what Israel failed And weapons.
The new settlement project raises more noise and more fears than all the previous US settlement projects, not because the Palestinians are ready to submit to the status quo, but for other reasons, including his connection with the controversial person of US President Trump, who enjoys the hype and media excitement, On the ground, the Bahrain workshop - if held on time - is revealing the deal and not an institution. These factors are present and undoubtedly taken into account. But the most important reason in our view that encouraged Trump is the weakness, Which has made the US administration believe that these countries are ready not only to give up their national responsibility towards the Palestinian people, but to actively participate in the liquidation of the Palestinian cause through the financial financing of the deal, without which the deal will not succeed.
Today, the weak point in the Palestinian cause lies in the Arab official position, which is soft and even conspiratorial, and has turned even on the Arab peace initiative, where participation in the Palestinian peace process is weak. The Manama workshop means abandoning the initiative and leaving the Palestinians alone in the field in the face of Israel and the more radical and Zionist American administration than Zionism itself.
When major Arab states, especially the Gulf, are forced and under threat to the Bahrain conference, this means not only that they agree to the American deal, but will have to finance it and do not tempt the claims of these countries that they are participating to support the Palestinians economically. To the Arab countries by presenting it to the Palestinians only if they abide by all the elements of the economic and political deal.
How shameless and ridiculous the claims of states and businessmen to participate in the Manama conference. If the participants were sincere in their claims of support for the Palestinians, they would have provided these funds directly to the Palestinians before the conference. President Abu Mazen appealed to them more than once, most recently at a conference of foreign ministers last April, The financial safety net, especially after the financial siege imposed by Israel and Washington on the PNA finally with the aim of blackmail and pressure on them to be consistent with the deal of the century.
Despite the fact that the Palestinian situation is divided and weak, its positive use of the deal is out of the question, since everyone is officially and publicly rejecting it, but the fear stems from the negative use of public rejection without a strategy or a unified position on how to confront and disrupt it. Because the solution needs the approval of the Palestinian people, but it may achieve a degree of progress if the goal of recycling the thought and approach to negotiations to manage the conflict and gain time, especially that the deal accompanied by financial temptations may seem tempting in light of the poor economic situation, which was initially stopped in Gaza and then in the West Bank Rbia.
In this context, if the blockade of Gaza and the resulting poverty, hunger and unemployment and the financial siege of the Authority in Ramallah through the prevention of clearing funds and cut Washington aid to the Authority and the reluctance of the Arabs to activate the financial safety net, if these actions encouraged Trump to launch the deal century, The Palestinian difficult figure is the steadfastness of Palestinians in the face of economic temptation under the pressure of the need of the people and the pressure of important Arab countries.
We do not question the position of the Palestinian leadership and all the national forces. However, any money now received by the two authorities - for example, the $ 480 million promised by Qatar to the two authorities - could be a boost on the account of the tens of billions allocated for the economic deal. The two authorities in Gaza and the West Bank in their rejection of the deal, especially in its economic.
Finally, despite the exaggeration and exaggeration of the media and political and financial extortion, but it is possible to disrupt the deal and raise the cover, Arab Arab not to participate the largest number of Arab countries in the Bahrain conference, and Palestine continued rejection accompanied by urgent national reconciliation, and we are certain that the success of any settlement without the participation of the PLO The Palestinians will remain the only legitimate figure, and the Palestinians will remain a difficult figure because no settlement project can go beyond them, and no Arab state or all of them together can overcome them, even if this could have happened to liquidate the issue for decades.
