PA Daily seeks to fearmonger by claiming that Donald trump's Peace Plan "establishes the Zionist entity as leader of the Arab region"
Excerpt of an op-ed by Fawzi Ali Al-Samhouri
Headline: “From Balfour to Trump – what now?”
“[US President Donald] Trump’s vision for the future of the Arab region and his plot, the deal of the century (i.e., Trump’s Middle East peace plan), are the other side of the Balfour Declaration. They are even liable to be worse than it, because of the danger in their consequences and effects on the Arab world, and this is due to many reasons such as:
…
- The attempt to enable the aggressive and expansionist Zionist movement to control the decision making in the states that have recognized or will recognize the racist Zionist entity (refers to Israeli peace agreements with the UAE, Bahrain, and Sudan; see note below –Ed.)…
- Establishing the Zionist entity as leader, or even police officer, that leads and controls the affairs of the Arab region. The promise to give easements for building military bases is only meant for them to serve as points of departure in its future wars.
Therefore, [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu’s strategy, which is based on exploiting President Trump’s term, is not just to take by force legitimacy for the existence [of the Zionist entity] as a foreign and artificial entity, but also to allow it to take control of distant strategic geographic areas on land and sea…
The message that Trump and Netanyahu – with all that they represent – must understand is that even if it appears to them that their plans are succeeding, history shows and will continue to show that the peoples will not submit, and that sooner or later they will rise up against them to defend their homelands…
While we appreciate the role of the European Union (EU) – which is politically and economically supporting the Palestinian people, its government, and its right to be liberated from the yoke of the Zionist occupation and colonialism and to establish its independent Palestinian state whose capital is Jerusalem within the June 4, 1967 borders – it could effectively fulfill a larger role:
- Immediately recognizing the Palestinian state whose capital is Jerusalem within the borders that were determined in the relevant international resolutions.
- Forcing the Zionist entity to define its borders and submit them to the UN, like the rest of the world states, on condition that they will not deviate from the [borders] that appear in the international resolutions, which unjustly gave it the legitimacy for its existence.”
