Shocking........Not
by Gerald A. Honigman

Most Arabs--especially those who didn't tactically rename themselves "Palestinians" until the 1960s, and only then primarily to negate the rebirth of the Jews' sole, minuscule state--rejected President Trump's long-awaited peace plan before its details were even announced. They repeatedly stated that it would be dead on arrival. See what a PLO executive Committee member, Zuheir Mohsen, had to say about that above "Palestinian" thing on March 31, 1977, in the Dutch newspaper Trouw:

"The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese... Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct 'Palestinian people' to oppose Zionism..."

Trump's team, led by Jared Kushner and Jason Greenblatt, unveiled the economic part of the plan in Bahrain on June 25, 2019. The idea was to present a vision of what peace could bring not only to the combatants, but to the entire region and world as well.

In many ways, this is nothing new. Dennis Ross, chief Middle East honcho for President Clinton, was present when Yasir Arafat walked away from a similar deal which would have given him and his people almost all of the disputed territories in Judea and Samaria (aka "West Bank" only since the 20th century) along with over $30 billion to sweeten the pot.

Then--as now--most Arabs demanding their 22nd state, and second, not first, in the land of the original 1920 Mandate of Palestine (Jordan was created on some 80% of the total area in1922), desire the destruction of Israel more than they seek an additional one for themselves or prosperity for their own people. Recall that most of those almost two dozen "Arab" states, on about six million square miles of territory, were created via the murderous jihadi conquest, colonization, and forced Arabization of scores of millions of native, non-Arab peoples and their lands...Kurds, black Africans, Amazigh/"Berbers," Assyrians, Copts, kilab yahud ("Jew dogs"), and others as well. Arabs simply refer to the entire region as "purely Arab patrimony," and to hell with anyone else's political aspirations.

Some say that the Arab-Israeli conflict is complex...Bull manure. You just saw it summed up easily in a nutshell in the last sentence above.

That's why, for example, Arabs also refer to the potential birth of an independent Kurdistan, for some forty million truly stateless people in the region, as the creation of "another Israel."

Back to Bahrain...

Naturally, the Trump team's many critics pooh-poohed the economic conference, saying that without "vision" it was meaningless. Please understand that to mean that without the Jews being forced to accept the Arabs' own perpetual vision of Israel's consent to suicide or destruction in some other manner, nothing else would matter. Here's some excerpts giving a firsthand account...

"...The Trump administration's $50 billion economic support plan for the Palestinians cannot succeed without addressing the political elements of a Middle East deal, international financial chiefs and global investors said Wednesday in comments that pushed back on the U.S. insistence that the two must be separated.

Panelists at the two-day conference in Bahrain welcomed the proposal's ambitious investment and development goals, but warned it would fall short without good governance, rule of law and realistic prospects for lasting peace through a political vision, which they noted is missing from the initiative..."

So again, please don't bother to bring me smelling salts...I haven't fainted out of surprise.

When President Trump's political vision is indeed revealed down the road, have no doubt that it too will certainly be rejected out of hand, since--once again--any peace plan (which is not a "peace of the grave") that allows for a viable Israel to still be around on the morrow is as unacceptable to the latter-day Arafatians-in-suits running the show at the PA and Fatah as it was to the late Egyptian ghoul himself at Camp David and Taba in 2000 and 2001.

For the whole gang, any and all negotiations are simply a Trojan Horse--in the alleged "moderates'" own words--leading to the same old destruction-in-stages plan Arabs adopted vis-í -vis Israel after the '67 War.

Until that oppressive, supremacist, subjugating, self-centered Arab mindset described above is dispensed with, no amount of money, support, good intentions, or anything else will bring peace to Arabs, Jews, or anyone else in the region.

Worse yet, the prospects for something better ever happening are next to nil if the textbooks, maps, sermons, children camps, television programs, radio broadcasts, and so forth Israel's so-called "peace partners" utilize are any indication of what the future has in store...at the same time that they also award murderers of Jews and their families with millions of dollars for their "heroic" deeds.
