Will the world surrender to Netanyahu?!

Note: This is the full text of Mr. Jamal Zaqout’s article. We apologize for adding paragraphs that were not part of the article. Therefore, this note was required.

In the face of the lust for blood that has become the driving force behind Netanyahu’s adventure for the twelfth month of the massacre that is being carried out live, it seems that the so-called international community, i.e. the powers that dominate international decision-making, is transforming its bias towards Israeli aggression into something resembling surrender to the desire to continue that massacre, despite its conflict with the electoral interests of the Democratic administration, which realizes that what is driving Netanyahu to continue this war is not only his direct personal interest, but also his desire to destroy Kamala Harris’s opportunity, to advance Trump’s rise to power once again, in an attempt to ally with him to give him the green light to complete his mission of liquidating the Palestinian cause from all its geographical, demographic and geopolitical dimensions at the regional level.

Netanyahu's concern for Israel's job

If we go back a little to Netanyahu's speech in Congress, the most striking thing in that speech is the strategic concern over Israel's role and position in Washington's foreign policy. This may be due not only to some forms of tension with the current administration, which has concluded that Israel's strategic role as a policeman for its interests in the Middle East has declined, as it now needs direct protection from its fleets, and not just comprehensive support for it, which indicates the shaking of Washington's global position, at a time when it is waging a war over this position within the framework of the global conflict over the nature of the international system in the face of China, Russia, and the BRICS group in general.

Netanyahu's intransigence exposes Washington's claims

Despite the continued unprecedented American support for Israel, Biden himself has not succeeded even once in extracting or luring Netanyahu into the ceasefire circle, even in stages. Netanyahu has so far succeeded in transforming American claims of concern for the lives of civilians, or its rejection of cutting off any part of the Gaza Strip’s lands, or a complete withdrawal from it, and even from Egyptian lands (the “Philadelphi Corridor”) into mere blatant American hypocrisy, as long as America has not succeeded in merely stopping the war of extermination, but rather is struggling with international law, that it is not like that, which confirms its unwillingness or inability to do so, if it is not actually giving the green light for its continuation.

Certainly, US policy in the region gives priority to Israel's military superiority, but Washington is also keen on its interests in the region. Here the question arises: What makes the United States not concerned about these interests? The simple answer is that it does not see in the reality of the Arab regimes anything more than tools panting behind its policies supporting Israel, if not seeing Israel as an ally to protect it, at a time when Washington's strategic policies seek to reduce its direct military presence in the region, as happened in Afghanistan, and as is happening in Iraq, and the return of its fleets was primarily to protect Israel, and deter any country thinking of threatening its security and status.

Washington's bias and the absence of Arab influence

In short, the collapse of the Arab system and its lack of influence on international decision-makers, despite the state of turmoil among the overwhelming majority of Arab peoples, whether due to their hostility to Israel or their commitment to the justice of Palestinian national rights, and the dangerous instability that may result from that for the region and its allied regimes, they nevertheless show no concern for public opinion in Arab countries, based on their belief that the continuation of the war and the weakness of their position towards the requirements for stopping it according to Biden's initiative itself, will not change the direction of the policies of the official Arab system, which is still miscalculating the repercussions of what is happening, and perhaps some of them find in the absence of a unified Palestinian position a cover to continue doing so, placing responsibility on the division of the Palestinians without making sufficient real efforts to turn this dark era in Palestinian history. However, the possibility of the situation exploding in a number of Arab countries, as happened in the operation carried out by Jordanian citizen Maher Al-Jazi, may force them, and perhaps Tel Aviv, to review that strategy that does not value the Arabs.

Division is the engine of aggressive ambitions

The crux of the matter in the face of this reality is the Palestinian responsibility to address it and implement the requirements for its restoration, especially since the national issue is not the only one at risk, but the narrow interests of some leaders who continue the state of division are also threatened. Despite their practical commitment to cooperation and not just security coordination and their continuation of the strategy of appeasing the occupier, they have become outside the Israeli need for the role of agent, in addition to their popular isolation.

Surrender is not an option and defeat is not destiny.

Will the powerful leadership, along with the "influential" Arab countries, whether those that have agreements with Tel Aviv or those seeking them, realize the nature of the Israeli plan, if Gaza is broken, so what if Israel succeeds in its plans to liquidate the Palestinian cause? Do they know that if the entire world, including them, surrenders to these plans, that the Palestinian people have no choice but to resist them? Even if Hamas disappears, and I think this will not happen, and with it Fatah and all the factions revolving in its orbit disappear, the Palestinian people will emerge from the ashes, brandishing their right and will, which will not be broken until they regain their rights and their place in human civilization.
