Comment on a statement – By Dr. Hossam Badrawi

Comment on a statement
The Arab and Muslim leaders met, each of them gave a speech, and issued a statement that we must read carefully. This is in our Arab and Islamic world, but in other countries, demonstrations and marches took place, and peoples even expressed their rejection of the aggression against the Palestinian people and the cruel and evil collective punishment of innocent citizens.
In our Islamic and Arab countries, presidents, kings, and mullahs gathered, and in the West, peoples gathered in the hundreds of thousands… Their rulers provide Israel with weapons, and our leaders provide the Palestinians with words. Their people go out in demonstrations, but our people cannot gather or demonstrate, unfortunately.
I go back to the statement that was issued with thirty-one decisions, which in my opinion is good and stronger than the words of presidents and kings, but the challenge is how to implement its decisions.
There are a number of points that caught my attention, as follows:
1- Re-mentioning the sovereign Palestinian state on the lines of June 3, 67, as we are reminding the world that there are resolutions from the United Nations that were taken and approved by the world at their time, and we must remember them and not forget them.
2- Calling on the Security Council to take a decisive and binding decision that imposes a cessation of aggression and curbs the reins of the occupying authority that is violating the law. From this standpoint, we return matters to international law, international humanitarian law, and international legitimacy resolutions.
3- Calling on all countries to stop exporting weapons and ammunition to the occupying authorities, and I wished to mention the United States of America specifically.
I also hoped to prevent any American aggression from bases in Arab countries.
4- The request addressed to the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court to investigate war crimes and humanitarian crimes committed by the occupying authority against the Palestinian people…a request that is binding from a humanitarian perspective first, and that when the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court is asked to investigate, this is tantamount to a report of the occurrence of a crime that must be committed. Investigate it, otherwise it will lose its credibility and existence. I stress that any action the court takes after that is legitimate, but it must be preceded by an investigation first.
5- The recommendation to establish two specialized legal monitoring units to document crimes and the truth is good, because what documents events today is social media. If there is a real desire to document the truth of events, this is a praiseworthy desire.
6 – Assigning the foreign ministers of the Kingdom, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Qatar, and whoever wants to join, that those who were setting the borders of the Israeli state were Egypt, Syria, and Iraq. Iraq was invaded and nearly a million people were killed, and Syria was divided and ISIS was inserted inside it.
We must not forget that Trump’s decision that the Golan is not an occupied territory is a terrifying decision, and none of us today are talking about the Golan at all.
I have heard from Palestinian friends that there are approximately 800,000 fanatical Israelis who have settled in the West Bank, which is approximately the same number of Palestinians surrounding them. Who has the ability to expel them now, since what is happening today is the imposition of a fait accompli? We are talking today about the two-state solution, which has become impossible because in light of the absolute imbalance of power, the stronger state will take control and the weaker state will turn into a humiliated state. After that, it will be encroached upon little by little until it is completely devoured. The days will pass and everyone will forget, and destruction will remain in all its colors and forms.
As for the two countries coming together in one state, I see that the Zionists will not accept that because I have not seen any country with this amount of intolerance between races like the State of Israel.
I noticed that the statement mentions in its Resolution No. 24 the affirmation that the Palestine Liberation Organization is the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people, and calls on the Palestinian factions and forces to unite under its umbrella, and for everyone to bear their responsibilities in light of a national partnership led by the Palestine Liberation Organization.
My comment includes, firstly, that the entire statement did not mention Hamas or its military wing, and I imagine there will be controversy over that, as Qatar and Iran are major incubators of Hamas and are funded with money and weapons.
Second: There is an attempt to restore life to the PLO so that it is the negotiator at the negotiating table that must and will follow the end of this massacre and aggression.
As for the political aspect, Israel and the world did not listen or interact with the Palestinian negotiators who previously took a peaceful and civilized approach. The truth is that Israel gave legitimacy to everyone who represents violence and extremism, and here Hamas appeared because it at least did something. We may or may not agree about who funds them and who. He helps and supports them from the beginning of their formation and the reality of their goals, but Hamas and Israel speak the same language and understand each other well. The language of extremism and violence.
I personally have a position on Hamas after I saw and read evidence of their conspiracy with the Muslim Brotherhood during 2011 with the aim of creating chaos in Egypt, but I will not be able to ignore that the Palestinian issue will not be the same after October 7 thanks to what they did.
What remains is a certain fact: the rights of a people who were assassinated, whose rights were violated, and whose families were destroyed. The Western world watches it with double standards and a violation of the ideals and principles it advocates. In order to convince its new generations, it lies and distorts the facts, so the perpetrator becomes a victim and the one whose rights are violated becomes a terrorist.
I go back and repeat the words of Ben-Gurion, one of the most important founders of Israel’s criminal project from the Nile to the Euphrates, when he affirmed that they would achieve their dream not because of their superiority, but because of the stupidity and failure of the Arab countries.
Item No. 6 in the statement of Arab and Islamic countries
He says: Breaking the siege on Gaza and imposing the entry of Arab, Islamic and international humanitarian aid convoys, including food, medicine and fuel into the Gaza Strip immediately, calling on international organizations to participate in this process, and emphasizing the necessity of these organizations entering the Gaza Strip, protecting their crews and enabling them to fully carry out their role. And support for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA).
My question is, is it imposed on whom??? We will not be able to impose it on Israel. Is this an imposition on Egypt or is this an inaccurate formulation?
Yesterday, I watched a speech by Trump and a debate with the Democratic Party candidates, and everyone competed in condemning the Palestinian resistance without hesitation, supporting Israel without any ceiling, and even demanding that it completely eliminate the resistance. I did not find an expression more eloquent than that there is a tragedy that human beings are suffering on the planet, which is that Israel controls the United States of America. in this way,
It is contemptible, low and blind
About the truth and double standards, the likes of which I have never seen.
Washington is the one who created Al-Qaeda to threaten the Soviet Union and then spent billions to eliminate it after that. They are the ones who created the Taliban, spent trillions of dollars and left them to rule Afghanistan with a strict religious rule, and even left them the weapon with which they threaten their people. They are the ones who created ISIS, as their former president Trump publicly admitted, and they With the British intelligence, who created the Muslim Brotherhood, from the beginning of Hassan al-Banna to Sayyid Qutb to Morsi, and enabled them to rule Egypt, had it not been for the genes of a civilization remaining in the conscience of the Egyptians, and Britain, the occupying state of Palestine, created Israel, which has come to control them, and their day is coming. I have not seen in history who they are. More evil and less humane…
I know that they and Israel contributed to creating Hamas to kill the PLO, and they are suffering from their severity now…
They are all swindlers, and the Palestinian people and the Arab peoples are the victims of all these evils. I would even add that the American people are also suffering from their governments, and they will discover this sooner or later…
Gentlemen: The Western world, whether in the Middle East or Africa, has used our governments, divided us, dominated and exploited our wealth over three centuries, and we have not yet woken up.
The Arab and Islamic world is chronically sick with ignorance, waste, triviality, and division. We possess wealth but do not exploit it, and the rulers, generation after generation, become pawns in the hands of gun owners, financial institutions, and intelligence services that turn leaders into agents.
The Israeli entity is mentally ill with fanaticism and lack of humanity, and suffers from a complex of historical oppression, and does not mind crushing those who are different from it through massacres and ethnic killings. It is an evil entity throughout history.
But the question is which of them has the potential to heal and survive…?
I believe we have a better chance of recovery if we choose the most qualified person to lead our country. We turned ignorance into knowledge.
The chance of their recovery is almost non-existent. The solution is ours, not theirs.
The solution is in Egypt and in Egypt if its affairs are fixed and in a new generation in Saudi Arabia if the West does not overthrow it in completing its project to control wealth.
The solution lies in education, knowledge, justice, and good governance, so that we can change what is within ourselves so that we can change our lives.
The challenge is ours, within our country, and not only in the Palestine issue.
