According to Xinhua News Agency, on February 26, Palestinian Prime Minister Ashtiyah announced that Palestine had resigned. This news has raised questions from many Chinese netizens: Under external threats such as Israel, why would the Palestinians resign on their own? This seems to be contrary to common sense.
This is not the case. The following points are worth noting:
1. Palestinian Prime Minister Ashtiyah and the current Abbas are both among the forces, and are even regarded as "capitulationists" within Palestine.
2. The resignation of Palestine requires the approval of Abbas. Once approved, he will be reorganized**, but this will not affect the day-to-day affairs of Palestine.
3. **The resignation means that in recent months, as the situation in Gaza has deteriorated, various factions within Palestine have waged fierce struggles, and the radicals have gained the upper hand. This reflects the choice of the people of Gaza, the Palestinian people. Having long been oppressed by Israel, coupled with the recent conflict, they are more inclined to support the radicals.
Once the radicals come to power, it will undoubtedly add strength to Hamas, which is confronting the Israeli army. And for Israel and its supporters, the United States, this will be a huge annoyance.
The current Palestinian-Israeli situation is not good for the United States and Israel:
First of all, in Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's approval ratings continue to decline, and calls for him to continue to expand the scale of his demonstrations.
Secondly, in the international **, the condemnation of Israel is growing day by day. On February 25, in front of the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C., a U.S. Air Force soldier on active duty** expressed his unwillingness to be an act of violence again about Israel's conduct in Gaza.
The move reflects the dissatisfaction that even American active-duty military personnel are dissatisfied with Israel's actions. At the same time, the United Nations has issued an ultimatum to Israel for a ceasefire, but Israel has openly demanded that UN Secretary-General António Guterres** provoke the indignation of the international community.
In this case, the United States, as a supporter of Israel, is also in a difficult situation. Despite US Secretary of State Antony Blinken's repeated visits to the Middle East in an attempt to exert influence, Netanyahu did not heed the advice. The United States is now pinning its hopes on China to de-escalate the situation by influencing Iran.
Of course, it is worth noting that the current formation of a new Palestinian ** will inevitably face some challenges. Israel may use this opportunity to create obstacles, and the United States may also intervene.
Moreover, for other countries that advocate peace, including China, the rise of radicals to power means that the situation in the Middle East will become more tense. The fighting is expected to spread from Gaza to all of Palestine, including the east and west coasts. In the Middle East, the influence of radicals** is often beyond imagination.
To sum up, there are few other ways to solve the problem other than the implementation of the two-state solution. Israel had vowed to wipe out Hamas completely within a few months before attacking Gaza. However, after such a long period of fighting, Hamas still exists, and the Palestinians have not yielded. This is enough to prove that in today's world, war is by no means a good solution to problems. May there be peace in the world.
