Looking back at the recent situation in Israel, we can see that the country has suffered repeated setbacks. On the one hand, Yemen's Houthis have successfully seized on the pain points of the United States and Israel, forcing Israel to use the United States to solve the dilemma by blocking the navigation of merchant ships in the Red Sea. On the other hand, the United States has taken measures to prevent Israel from carrying out operations in the Gaza Strip, and although the information has not yet been confirmed, this move has reportedly not hindered Israel's determination to continue fighting. However, Israel has also suffered a huge amount under this series of blows, and the last two days were the heaviest weekend for Israeli forces since October 27, which can be seen. Despite this, Israel has not wavered in its determination to destroy Hamas and occupy Gaza.
Israel's decision to solve the difficult problem of the Yemeni Houthis blocking merchant ships in the Red Sea to the United States shows Israel's dependence on and trust in the United States. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised the U.S. action at a cabinet meeting and praised the U.S. for blocking the U.N.'s call for a binding ceasefire in Gaza. He told the United States that Israel would continue to fight until it achieved total victory, no matter how long it took. Netanyahu also cited the example of the 1945 British bombing of a Gestapo stronghold, which killed 86 children in Copenhagen when they accidentally injured a school. Through this example, Netanyahu tried to justify the Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip, expressing that Israel was not guilty of war crimes and that the international community should not blame Israel, but rather consider it a legitimate act of war, despite the tragic results. This demonstrates Israel's firm position and determination to relentlessly bombard the Gaza Strip.
However, at this critical juncture, China's involvement is crucial. China has successfully held four Palestinian-Israeli peace talks, and each time it has achieved progress and results. This makes China the only choice for mediating the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. On the one hand, China does not need to send troops to the Middle East, but it can play a key role. Although the Palestinian-Israeli peace forum's influence was not great enough, after the United States shelved the Palestinian-Israeli peace framework, China's symposium became the only platform for Palestinian-Israeli peace communication. It can be said that on the issue of Palestinian-Israeli peace, China has replaced the role of the United States almost at no cost, and has won the approval of Palestine and Israel. In fact, the Palestinian-Israeli issue will continue to ferment in the Middle East, but when the situation gradually stalemates, it will eventually need to be resolved through negotiations. When looking for a negotiator, the United States has a clear position that among other major powers, only China has the ability to intervene in the Palestinian-Israeli negotiations. China has good relations with Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, Israel, Palestine, Iraq, Syria and other countries, and has peaceful solutions based on economic development. In addition, earlier this year, China facilitated the resumption of diplomatic relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran, increasing China's influence in the Middle East. Therefore, only China is the best choice to mediate the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. However, it is essential to act quickly, and Israel, despite being crippled, is still fighting tenaciously, and it is not known how many more rounds Gaza will survive.
In short, Israel's current predicament and its foreign appeal have once again highlighted China's important position in international affairs. China has played a positive role in the Palestinian-Israeli peace issue by holding a seminar for Palestinian-Israeli peacemakers. At the same time, China has also made positive progress in its friendly relations with Middle Eastern countries. Therefore, China, as a neutral and influential power, should intensify its involvement and mediation efforts in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and play a greater role in peace and stability in the Middle East. Peace in the Middle East is not only of great significance to the region itself, but also has a far-reaching impact on global peace and security. China should uphold the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, uphold a fair and objective attitude in resolving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and strive to promote the settlement of disputes through dialogue, consultation and negotiation, so as to contribute to the realization of Palestinian-Israeli peace. Only a peaceful settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict can bring long-term stability and development to the Middle East region. We have reason to believe that with China's active participation and the joint efforts of the international community, the Palestinian-Israeli peace issue can finally be properly resolved and good conditions for regional peace and prosperity can be created.
