What is this American recklessness and contradictory positions?

The United States does not stop its blind bias towards Israel and defending and justifying what it wants. At the same time, any statement by a Palestinian official turns, in their blind view, into anti-Semitism and unreasonable and undesirable extremism. The examples are many and varied, the most recent of which is describing a speech by President Abu Mazen as hateful and demanding that he apologize immediately. At the same time, Nabil Abu Rudeina, the official spokesman for the National Authority, confirms that what was published are mere quotes and is not considered a denial in any way of the Nazi Holocaust against the Jews at all.


According to a British media network, President Abu Mazen had demanded, in the event of a tripartite agreement including the United States, Saudi Arabia and Israel, more Palestinian political and security control over the West Bank and a financial increase of millions of dollars to support the Authority.


These are clear positions and statements, and there is no reason for the American administration to describe this speech as hateful and demand an immediate apology for it.


One of the most prominent manifestations of American political recklessness these days is that it is known that the Israeli Minister of Transportation approved the construction of a road network to transform the West Bank into cantons with the aim of facilitating the extremist plans of this government and the Minister to increase the number of settlers and expand the settlements to reach nearly a million settlers in the West Bank, and Washington does not say a word. Criticism or rejection of this Israeli expansionist step.


It should also be noted that a store was demolished and notices were issued targeting three homes in Silwan in Jerusalem. What is even worse is that a group of settlers stormed the Bab al-Rahma prayer hall in Jerusalem and wreaked havoc and looting on it. Some of them also performed religious rituals outside of it. We did not hear any criticism or condemnation of these practices and they continued. Washington is silent as graves regarding this, and when it spoke about the Palestinian demands presented in the Riyadh talks, it stressed that they are difficult demands, not easy to implement, and suggested to the National Authority that it present more reasonable proposals, that is, agreeing to settlement, establishing settlements, confiscating the land, and displacing its people.


The saying is true, “Those who are ashamed are dead,” and here is a politically blind Washington that only sees what is in the interest of Israel and its followers, and that the Arabs, with all their money, capabilities, and dangerous geographical locations, deserve nothing but recklessness and ignoring, except for what is related to the plundering of this money and the advantages for their benefits.


What Washington does not realize currently is that this situation cannot continue, that zero hour is coming, and that rights will only belong to those who hold them.
