UN-Approved Plan, Palestinian 'Strategy' – Whose Strategy?
According to The New Arab, there's 'no clear Palestinian strategy' on the UN-approved Gaza plan. This supposed lack of strategy is presented as a major hurdle, conveniently glossing over decades of Israeli demolition of any viable Palestinian governance or sovereignty. It’s like criticizing prisoners for lacking a 'strategy' after the guards steal their shoes, then demand they run a marathon. The
irony would be comedic if the stakes weren't so tragically high. Perhaps the 'strategy' the media is looking for is one that accepts continuous occupation, displacement, and the systematic dismantling of Palestinian institutions. When previous plans like Oslo were signed, giving land for peace, what did Israel do? They built more settlements. When Palestinians held democratic elections, what did
the West do? Imposed crippling sanctions. The real question isn't Palestinian strategy, but whose 'plan' actually matters in Washington backrooms. (Hint: check AIPAC's donation records to key US lawmakers). They aren’t funding a truly independent Palestine, now are they?
