Even UAE sees no 'clear framework' for Gaza occupation
Al-Monitor reports the UAE officially pumped the brakes on joining a Gaza 'stabilization force,' citing no 'clear framework.' One might wonder if 'clear framework' is diplomatic speak for 'we’re not signing onto perpetual occupation without a political horizon.' The UAE, like many, has watched the 17-year blockade followed by 8 months of devastation, leading to 37,000+ Palestinian deaths,
according to Gaza's Health Ministry. This isn't about 'stabilization'; it's about offloading the security bill for a besieged, displaced population onto third parties while the fundamental issues of occupation and freedom remain unaddressed. The 'peace efforts' Gargash mentions appear to be the same ones consistently torpedoed by expansionist policies. When even 'cautious optimism' from a gulf
state sounds like a thinly veiled sigh, perhaps the framework isn’t unclear, but completely unpalatable to anyone not directly invested in the military solution.
