ِِِAfrasianet - Dr.. Abeer Abdel Rahman Thabet - The economic conference called for by the Trump administration in Bahrain from June 25 to 26, under the title of Peace for Prosperity, is an advanced step in the implementation of the century deal. This workshop aims at saving 68 billion dollars, half of which is allocated to investment projects in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. But the American administration wants to be a free hand in the Arab sense that the money will be from the coffers of the Arab Gulf countries; most of which were rushed by the announcement. About Arkh and welcoming the conference; and despite the refusal of the Palestinian Conference although it is a Awara to him, but it would not hamper to take place, and this in itself is a clear reflection of the goals of which is designed with this conference, which are summarized as follows:
1. The marginalization of the official Palestinian political influence and the return of it four decades back when the Arabs are politically responsible for the Palestinians; this means ending the role of the PLO as a legitimate political and official representative of the Palestinian people. This reflects the lack of a basic solution to the conflict. This is the right of self-determination for the Palestinians. The absence of Palestinians from this conference has profound implications for what is coming during the next phase of the American settlement. Here, it should be noted that Israel and the American administration would not have adopted this strategy to marginalize the political role of the Palestinian N What it was not supported in the light of the green strong Arab and reliable before embarking on the initial steps in the current resolution.
2. Linking the course of the American settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, a historical conflict that is multidimensional in the immediate conflicts of the region between countries and foreign countries among them in the Middle East and the use of contradictions of those conflicts between the parties to pressure them and swap their support to support the American settlement of the conflict within the American vision integrated to stabilize the American influence through the alliance Arab-Israeli conflict is necessary and vital to counter the growing influence of superpowers and regional powers, in which both the United States and Israel see a danger to their strategic interests.
3. The conference will be used as an additional economic pressure on the Palestinian leadership and on the Egyptian and Jordanian leadership. The pressure paper in this regard is the volume of financial inducements offered by the settlement to find solutions to the economic crises experienced by both countries. For Palestinians, however, To create a situation of contradiction between the interests of the Palestinian people and their leadership so that the Palestinian leadership can be seen as an obstacle to the exit of the Palestinian people from their current dire economic situation, which today is affecting all the details of human life, For the sake of the population of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip; and here the Palestinian leadership is to remain if it continues to reject the American settlement between the anvils of external pressure and public pressure, which is further aggravated by the systematic leaks of alleged financial abuses of the PA government, accompanied by leaked documents from time to time. Its national authority as a political body steeped in corruption and incapable of governance and governance; in addition to the continuation of the Palestinian division and its political and economic consequences, which is a very helpful factor that strongly serves that American strategy and greatly undermine the confidence of the people To its leaders with different ideologies and approach to struggle.
Hence, the US Administration and Israel hope that the continuation of this status quo will lead to the emergence of independent economic forces that will be supported by the American administration economically and politically until they become a major political player in the Palestinian arena in the future, replacing the current Palestinian political scene with an economic political scene that controls It has economic lobbies whose political and economic interests are linked to external powers. This is precisely what the US administration and Israel aspire to see in any Palestinian political entity produced by the deal of the century.
First, the Palestinian national strategic interests are no longer part of the Arab national strategic interests. Moreover, the strategic national interests of some Arab countries are in sharp conflict with the Palestinian interest; A just solution to the Palestinian question within the limits of the resolutions of international legitimacy; and in this bitter reality we must redraft our alliances according to those changes; but before that we must realize that the Palestinian national interest should be the first priority This requires, first and foremost, the restoration of Palestinian unity and unity, the end of the division and the rearrangement of the Palestinian home and the Palestinian political system based on the popular will and through a clear democratic approach. The details can transform the Palestinians from the defense to the offensive approach. The deal, which is being run in full swing in all the issues of the conflict and in a cumulative way two years ago, is no longer enough. We must adopt a new policy on the ground. The content of the demolition of the temple is on everyone's heads. Land in the final status issues ... that if we want to fail the American Israeli plan and not become Indians new to the Middle East because this is in fact what our destiny to Seoul at the end of the American settlement stages if they have as much success.
