Since the outbreak of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the grave situation in the Gaza Strip has touched a sensitive nerve in the entire world.
On February 26, the overwhelming news came that in the West Bank city of Ramallah, Palestinian Prime Minister Ashtiyah announced the resignation of Palestinian.
Seeing this news, many netizens wondered that the Palestinian-Israeli conflict was in full swing, and at this time, what was the reason for the resignation of the Palestinian **?
Moreover, in the months since the outbreak of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the people in Gaza have been brutally attacked, but this Palestinian** rarely shows up, and some people don't even know that there is such a "cold-eyed" ** in Palestine.
In fact, Palestine has an internationally recognized "legitimate**", that is, the Palestinian National Liberation Organization, also known as "Fatah".
In 1993, Yasser Arafat, the founder and leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization, and Israeli Prime Minister Bhaik Rabin signed the Oslo Accords, which aimed to resolve the dispute between Palestine and Israel and lay the groundwork for the establishment of a Palestinian state.
Under the terms of the agreement, Palestine**, also known as the Palestinian National Authority, was established in May 1994 to administer the affairs of the Palestinian Autonomous Region in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
In 2007, the conflict between Fatah and Hamas broke out in Gaza, with Hamas taking control of the Gaza Strip and Fatah effectively controlling the West Bank.
And this "Fatah" has also become a representative organization of Palestine recognized by the international community.
Mahmoud Abbas is the current Palestinian Authority and the supreme representative of the State of Palestine, as well as the Chairman of Fatah.
In 2019, Abbas appointed Ashtiyah as Prime Minister of Palestine and appointed him to form a new Prime Minister to exercise specific administrative matters.
In fact, in Palestine, this nominal ** is not embraced by the Palestinian population.
In the eyes of the Palestinians, this ** is, in the final analysis, a "puppet regime", compared with "Hamas", it is a lying flat, and it is even more reluctant to swallow all kinds of anger against the United States and Israel, and there have been many demonstrations against "Fatah" in Palestine.
The current leader, Abbas, is 89 years old and has not held a leadership re-election for nearly two decades, including one in 2006, when Hamas won more seats, but Fatah has always refused to recognize it.
If the people at home don't support it, it's okay for the United States and Israel to like it, but on the contrary, this "Fatah" is not pleasing to both sides.
In the eyes of many people, the Palestinian Authority is a "can't help Adou", although it controls the West Bank, but part of the military, diplomatic and other powers are still in the hands of Israel, and even in the West Bank, many Palestinians would rather seek security from local militias than find this**.
Weakness, corruption, a weak base of public opinion, that is the reality of the Palestinian Authority. Even Netanyahu said that expecting the Palestinian Authority to solve Gaza's problems is simply a "pipe dream", and that even the West Bank cannot be settled, and does he expect it to penetrate deep into the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip?
And when it comes to why the Palestinian ** resigned this time, it can be said that it isA major outbreak of internal and external troubles.
In his statement, Ashtiyeh said the decision was made in response to "developments related to the aggression against Gaza and the unprecedented escalation of violence in the West Bank, including Jerusalem."
fromInternal factorsSince the outbreak of the conflict, the proportion of Palestinians supporting Hamas has increased significantly, and Fatah is facing considerable pressure on Fatah, who is "powerless".
In addition, according to a survey conducted by the Palestinian Centre for Policy and Survey Research, more than 60 per cent of the Palestinian population wants the dissolution of the Palestinian Authority.
And for Abbas, who has been serving as ** since 2005, approval ratings have fallen to freezing point, and in the West Bank, a whopping 92% of respondents want him**.
In contrast, Hamas has won strong support from the public, and in recent years, Hamas has repeatedly emphasized the need to establish a "new type" to weaken the factional nature of the faction and change the pattern of Fatah's dominance.
In addition, both sides are willing to negotiate, whether it is Hamas or Fatah. Earlier, Reuters said that Fatah and Hamas had reached an agreement on the formation of a coalition**, and the two sides will meet in Moscow, the capital of Russia, on February 28, when the future of Palestine will be on the agenda.
AgainExternal factorsFirst of all, there is pressure from the United States.
According to the wishes and demands of the United States, once the Palestinian-Israeli conflict ends, the Gaza Strip should be taken over by the Palestinian National Authority, but the current situation is obviously not suitable for the management of the Gaza Strip, and "reform" must be carried out to reorganize the Palestinian National Authority.
Second, there is pressure from Middle Eastern countries such as Egypt and Saudi Arabia, which are important diplomatic and financial backers behind the Palestinian National Authority.
For their part, they hope to defuse the internal factional struggle in Palestine and ease the criticism and pressure brought about by the Palestinian-Israeli conflict by inducing the Palestinian ** to resign.
Under multiple pressures, the decision of the Palestinian government to resign should be regarded as a wise move, which not only conforms to the will of the people, but also conforms to the interests of the United States, and at the same time means that the Palestinian government will usher in a new change.
Prime Minister Ashtiyah revealed in announcing the resignation of the Palestinians that the Palestinians intend to form a professional technology to prepare for the reconstruction of Gaza and restore security in the Gaza Strip after the war. At the same time, Hamas has agreed to build up expertise within Hamas.
Once the two sides can reach a consensus in the negotiations, then a new national authority will be formed, and the new ** will be taken over by professional independents, who do not belong to any Palestinian political party, until new elections are held.
If war is war, there will always be an end.
Today's Middle East is a growing headache for the United States, and the global call for a ceasefire continues to rise, and how to deal with the aftermath of Gaza after the war has become an urgent issue.
The idea that the United States has revealed at present is that it wants the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank to take charge of Gaza and "westbank" the Gaza Strip.
And Israel apparently did not side with the United States this time.
On 22 February, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office submitted a plan for post-war arrangements in Gaza, which includes Israel's short-, medium- and long-term plans for the Gaza Strip.
The immediate plan mainly involves the assessment and adjustment of military operations, and the plan also takes into account the post-war security layout. There are also civil arrangements, including how to rehabilitate and rebuild war-damaged infrastructure and improve the living conditions of the population of the Gaza Strip.
However, the role of the Palestinian Authority in Israel's post-war planning is not mentioned.
In accordance with the requirements of the plan, the Israeli military will continue to conduct military operations in the Gaza Strip until it achieves the objectives of destroying Hamas's military forces and infrastructure, rescuing Israeli hostages and ensuring that the Gaza Strip no longer poses a threat to Israel.
In fact, according to Netanyahu's intentions, this is to envision a demilitarized Gaza, in which Israel will still blockade the Gaza Strip even after the fighting is over, stationing a large number of security personnel, and establishing a buffer zone along the perimeter that Palestinians will not be allowed to enter.
The United States clearly has a lot of criticism about this plan.
In an interview on February 23, Blinken responded that the United States was "disappointed" by Israel's new plan for the "post-war Gaza Blueprint," which is not conducive to lasting peace in the region, and some of the plans are not even in line with international law. According to the judgment of the United States**, this plan will only weaken Israel's security, not strengthen it.
Previously, Biden has repeatedly reminded Israelis: do not be blinded by anger and do not repeat the mistakes made by the United States after the "911 incident". In Afghanistan, it took the Americans 20 years to understand a truth: It is easy to overthrow a hostile regime, but it is even more difficult to establish a new regime that meets the interests of all parties.
The United States is teaching by word and deed, and I wonder if Israel will be able to grasp the meaning.
But this time the resignation of the Palestinian ** will lead the Palestine to which road, we still don't know, let's see!
