The fact of the matter is clear, the political landscape regarding the current and protracted situation between Israel and the “Palestinians” is greatly different than the biblical landscape, set forth in Genesis, where it comes to the borders OF Israel.“From the Nile river (which is mainly modern Egypt and Sudan) to the Euphrates (modern-day Iraq).”
Since its inception in 1948, Israel has never been in the business of conquering other nations, never insisted on the biblical borders and instead, only wanted to live in peace. A peace often interrupted by the hatred for the Jews by other surrounding entities but Israel, having never let down her guard, has repelled all such incursions and has, in fact, sought peace through the giving up pieces of what little land she has.
Today, all Israel wants are the borders drawn after the 1967 war, a war she did not start but a war she won and to be left alone to exist in the world as a Jewish nation.
To understand the dynamics at hand and arrive at a viable solution, we must first break down the entities involved.
In part one of this investigative series, Diane Sori of The Patriot Factor provided crucial insight into the real position of Jordan and Jordan’s King. Trust me, we’re not done exploring Jordan’s role on all of this but, more on that later.
The Silence is Conspicuously Deafening
Throughout the weeks old war between Israel and Hamas, the silence of the Arab nations has stood out. They seem not to be siding with either side which means that the Islamic factions involved, Hamas, Iran and others are not in their favor.
Egypt has been the most notable of the Arab nations in that they are outwardly backing Israel and why shouldn’t they? Hamas is intertwined with the Muslim Brotherhood after all and Egypt, after the Obama led Brotherhood ascension to power in Egypt crumbled, realigned itself squarely with the 40 plus year-long Israel/Egypt peace accord.
Egypt has no love whatsoever for Hamas.
Add to that the close proximity of the West Bank to the Sinai Peninsula, the fact that rockets have been fired from Sinai at Israel by “militants” who are no doubt a Muslim Brotherhood/Hamas band of terrorists and that a Sinai Egyptian military post has ALSO come under fire from the SAME militants prompting an increased level of alert by the Egyptians in the area and one doesn’t have to stretch the probability that Egypt may
well go on the offensive, in Israel’s aid, to rid the West Bank of Hamas.If that occurs and we believe it to only be a matter of time before it does, Egypt would most likely also join Israel in the military push to rid Gaza of Hamas as Egypt would just as soon have the Hamas/Brotherhood neutralized as would Israel.
If that’s not enough, just yesterday, Putin, also decidedly anti-Islam, met with Egypt’s president, el-Sisi in Moscow to discuss Russian/Egyptian cooperation AND to discuss the Gaza, Iraq and growing Islamic terrorist situation in Libya.
Egypt, under the leadership of el-Sisi IS Israel’s most powerful and influential ally in the region, and if Putin’s Russia is willing to back their play…Russia who has been strengthening their ties with Israel over the past year while watching Obama regime turn its BACK on Israel…the beginning of coalition is forming.
Bringing together a coalition between Israel and the more secular Arab nations would be advantageous to Russia and would allow Putin, once again, to stick his finger in Obama’s eye as Obama not only doesn’t WANT to see such a partnership, he completely lacks the standing on the world stage to BUILD it.
That brings us back to the conspicuously quite Arab nations…Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and…Tunisia…yes, the home of the Arab spring which has led to increased Islamic control and violence in the region…Tunisia. They could all join such a coalition as that which is now forming between Egypt, Israel and Russia.
Even with Tunisia being Islamist in the eyes of the world right now, the Tunisian parliament HAS ratified two articles of their new constitution into law, those being the formation of what they refer to as the “civil state” without leaving ISLAM as their main source of legislation, and the resolution that the state will not only PROTECT freedom of belief and religious practice but… “FREEDOM OF CONSCIENCE” as well.
Tunisia’s new constitution and the new government there are the key to a return of secularism and with the backing of Egypt, Israel and Russia, they would attain it more readily.
Such a move would also have the effect of getting the UAE and the Saudis off the proverbial fence as none of them want anything to do with the formation of the ISIS caliphate in the Middle East.
If this partnership could be built, and we see it as a distinct possibility, ISIS would be constrained in Iraq but, what of Syria, the current staging point for ISIS and for that matter, what of Qatar, where the heads of ISIS now reside?
They would be isolated by the coalition.
Russia would back the Free Syrian Rebels in the duel effort to topple Assad from power and rid Syria of the ISIS rebel ilk th
at has been the recipient of Obama’s under the table support, in favor of a more secular Syria that could in time, emerge.Left OUT of this possible coalition are Turkey, an Islamic state run by Erdoğan and his majority of Sunni Islamic voters, Libya, solidly, for now, in the hands of al-Qaeda thanks to Obama’s ‘Gaddafi must go’ debacle, Lebanon, an Islamist state overrun by Hezbollah terrorists and Qatar, home to all manner of terrorist organizations and Turkey, the latter two being the very two countries Obama sent his puppet, John Kerry to in an attempt to build a coalition with Hamas to solve the situation in Gaza.
Obama is Not Israel’s Ally
Obama’s plan to bring peace to the region has focused on partnering with terrorist harboring, terrorist sponsoring nations and terrorist organizations like Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood while providing support for ISIS and al-Qaeda entities in Syria and elsewhere with the end goal of creating a two state solution for “Palestine” using the United Nations (of thugs, thieves and despots) as the primary overseer of it all.
THAT is a recipe for disaster for the entire region that will never bring peace but WILL extend the Islamic caliphate ending Israel altogether as Obama’s continued efforts along those lines leaves him both on the wrong side of history and on the wrong side of any peaceful future in the Middle East.
That leaves us with one last player in the region…”Palestine,” a nation that has never existed in world history and a people, the “Palestinians” who have never been, at best, more than Arab nomads.
Before we put forth what we believe to be the only truly viable plan for a two state solution, we must first understand the dynamics of “Palestine”
and to do THAT we have to break it into three demographic roles.First, there is the Palestinian Authority lead by Mahmoud Abbas. Abbas and the Palestinian Authority are the successors to Arafat and the PLO. Abbas is pro Islam but tries to bring about some appeal to the west by presenting himself as a moderate. Abbas is more concerned with playing both ends toward the middle if it helps keep him in power, but he will always lean toward Islam.
Second…Hamas. While Abbas is the head of a pseudo Government of a nation that doesn’t really exist and never has, Hamas is his army and the source of any power he thinks he has. Hamas would have no place in a peaceful Palestinian state as their charter calls for the elimination of Israel and the murder of all Jews on a global scale. Hamas is nothing more than a barbaric Islamic terror organization in search of gravitas.
And thirdly, we have the “Palestinian” people. While some of these people would be perfectly happy remaining true to Hamas’ Islamic ideology, many would rather live in peace with Israel as they have seen the benefit of it both economically and culturally. They don’t want a constant state of war…they, like Israel, just want exist but, for the time being, they are caught in a no man’s land.
How then can a true two state solution be achieved with “Palestine” existing inside Israel?
It can’t and THAT is exactly where we believe those trying to make it so, are bound to fail because, that is the ONLY solution that has been proposed.
The holdup in this process is twofold. First…Hamas, demilitarized or not, because of their charter, will never accept living even as a state, inside Israel because, they will never accept the EXISTENCE of Israel however, the Palestinian Authority, as long as they have an element of control and the people of “Palestine” WOULD accept a two state solution. In order for any two state solution to work, Hamas would have to be reigned in and controlled but the Palestinian Authority lacks both the will and the ability to do it.
For far too long, the idea has been a two state solution between Israel and “Palestine” and that IS the problem. Not only should Israel not be a part of such a two state solution…Israel should never have to give away any more land or security to bring ABOUT a two state solution.
In fact, the most viable solution to the two state solution is to allow Israel to exist as they are but to remove them FROM the two state solution process as Hamas, the strong-arm terrorist element of “Palestine” will never accept ANY conditions OF Israel in order to live IN Israel.
The West Bank and Gaza should belong to Israel. Period. But there IS a way to HAVE a two state solution and while talk has been circulating in the Knesset and we believe Netanyahu supports the idea, neither the Israeli government nor Netanyahu can propose it because of all the dynamics involved but…Egypt, as an Arab state, should the coalition as described above come to fruition…COULD.
The REAL Road Map to Peace
The TRUE two state solution should not involve Israel and “Palestine”…rather it should and in our view, ONLY COULD be successful were it to be between…”Palestine”…and JORDAN!!!
After all, as my RIGHT SID
E PATRIOTS radio partner, friend and co-author of this investigative 3 part series accurately pointed out in Part 1, Jordan is the ONLY Arab country to grant CITIZENSHIP to the “Palestinian” people.The “Palestinians” are, by all accounts, on both legal and ethnic grounds…Jordanians but, as Diane also pointed out, Jordan’s King Abdullah II has steadfastly refused to concede any land to the “Palestinians” because while he believe Israel should give up THEIR territory… HE doesn’t want to give up any of HIS and that makes HIM the second holdup in this process.
Under what both Diane Sori and I believe to be the only viable two state solution…technically, Abdullah II wouldn’t have to.
More on that and the benefits of this proposed “Palestine/Jordan solution tomorrow in“Israel’s Allies and Enemies: The Truth Exposed…Part 3.”
