October 7… The wizard’s hat! – Part 4

By: Contribution for Syrializm

 

Of course, there is no doubt that Netanyahu is one of those who adhere to the Jews prophecies as a doctrine, and he is the one who started this war with a prophecy from one of the books of the Tanakh, the Book of Isaiah, and there is no need to remind that even US President Joe Biden acknowledged his Zionism more than once without any ambiguity.

Returning to the other side, Hamas, and the demands made against it for the necessity of making concessions, it must be remembered that the largest concession was asked, especially after Turkey entered the negotiating line, which was announced through its agreement for some of its leaders to leave the Gaza Strip, and to handover weapons to enter into the negotiations.

The security system of the Palestinian Authority, and their agreement of the two-state solution on the 1967 borders.

This concession is considered major and fundamental, undermines the core of the foundation principles of the Hamas movement since its founding.

The picture is that Hamas, with such concessions and such pragmatism, will emerge from being a radical Islamic movement classified as terrorist to similar situation as the Fatah movement when moved from the armed option to the peaceful option during the time of Yasser Arafat.

Of course, if this is done, it’s considered a successful escape forward, and in return we have international recognition of the Palestinian state, and of any Palestinian government that comes through elections.

Any elections, if it takes place, will put Hamas at the head of the Palestinian Authority, as happened in the 2006 elections, which is clear and recognized.

The current Palestinian popular position is based on the experience of 75 years of conflict.

What these people have realized is that restoring rights through negotiations only comes after armed action, which imposes a just solution on a negotiating table in which both sides are true equals, and that the peaceful option that lasted for three decades only brought Humiliation and loss of rights, and what resulted from the alleged peaceful solution wasn’t the return of rights, nor the return of lands, nor the right of return, but rather it was a weak government forced to work and betrayal in order to survive, unable even to preserve the rights remaining in the hands of the Palestinian people, and to provide the minimum elements of security for the people, without neither the right to freedom nor sovereignty over a land that is supposedly Palestinian.

Thus, a state that belongs to the Palestinian people according to international conventions and norms and along with resolutions of the UN Security Council itself.

Meanwhile, the Palestinian security forces in the West Bank are the ones who have the duty to arrest any resistor or wanted person and hand him over to the Israeli security authorities, and suppressing any protest considered dangerous to the peace process and coexistence between the two sides.

All of this, of course, takes place within the framework of the security coordination agreement between the two sides, and the current Palestinian Authority wasn’t satisfied with this level of dependency.

Rather, the Palestinian security apparatus began working for the benefit of the Israeli security and intelligence services as well, which was revealed, regarding the role of Palestinian official and security figures in spying for the Israeli Mossad and Shin Bet, in several countries, including Pakistan, South Africa and Sudan, and the role of the Palestinian security services in fabricating sexual cases against Palestinian political figures, in order to blackmail them to recruit them for the Mossad.

With this shameful reality and the absence of any national vision among the leaders of the Fatah movement currently in authority in the West Bank, and with a wide basket of internal, external, regional and even international tools possessed by the Hamas movement, its certain that any upcoming elections will bring Hamas to lead the new Palestinian state, and with weapons, codified and guaranteed international agreements.

Israel doesn’t want this scenario, but it sees it looming on the horizon.

Hamas gives the concession with the right hand, and takes it back with a 200% interest with the left hand!

What is most painful for Israel lies in the exchange deal that will include Palestinian detainees with high sentences in Israeli prisons, led by Marwan Barghouti, a senior leader in the Fatah movement, who is considered one of the hawkish wing of the movement and has prominent movement roles, including a prominent role in the Second Intifada (Al Aqsa Intifada), and he is the most likely to lead the Fatah movement in any internal elections held.

Among the prisoners expected to be included in the exchange deal is Ahmed Saadat, Secretary-General of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, who was kidnapped by Palestinian Authority intelligence and held at the headquarters of the late Palestinian President Yasser Arafat until Israeli forces besieged Arafat’s headquarters, demanding that they hand over Saadat and four of his entourage, whom been accused of being behind the assassination of Israeli Tourism Minister Rehavam Ze’evi on October 17, 2001.

A deal was concluded to break the siege on Arafat’s headquarters at that time, and Saadat and his companions were then imprisoned in the Palestinian Jericho prison under the guard of security men from Britain and the United States.

What is clear here is that the Hamas movement will have representation within the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Palestinian political scene through several entities, not just the Hamas entity, because if Marwan Barghouti or Ahmed Saadat leave the Israeli cells, their loyalty will be to those who sacrificed to get them out.

As for the region and the Arab world, the situation is close to being described as catastrophic, because the results of this war so far have proven the inability of the Arab regimes to impose their model on their people.

The popular protests in support of the Palestinian resistance and boycott campaigns have proven that the Palestinian resistance has more influence on the peoples of the region than the governments.

These tools that Hamas possesses in the conflict, and the freedom to make decisions and wage wars, make them the actual influential on the peoples in region.

This situation, if measured in terms of the pragmatism of the US government, leads us to a firm conclusion, stating that the United States is the one that will delegitimize its tools in the region, and won’t wait for the people to do this, because the scenario of uncontrolled popular uprising carries major risks to US interests and US national security, especially in these circumstances that the region is facing, and here the closest thing to new balances is for the United States to conclude a long-term truce with Hamas and with what it will represent after the war, as a heir and bearer of political Sunni Islam, a political Islam that isn’t accused of terrorism, and at the same time adopts a solid and violent doctrine; It enables them to fight the harshest wars, establish alliances, and sign reliable peace agreements.

As for Israel’s relationship with the countries in the region, from the West Bank to the rest of the countries in the region, peoples and leaders, everyone was convinced that Israel couldn’t play the role of the leader, the wise theorist, and the protector of the region.

The Israeli security system and political leadership appeared completely incapable after October 7, to the point that the inability was institutional and included the roots of the state.

Israel is suffering from a real and clear crisis at the level of the political class as a whole, and at the level of laws and institutions as well, and the space there is completely empty of any leader or party that has a reform vision for the regime in Israel that enjoys comfortable popular support, or even capable of leading Israel in the current state, in addition to ruling the region as a whole.

It’s known that in the lifetime of states, the era of weakness and decline begins when those states enter the stage of the third generation of their rulers, when all the founding leaders are passed away, followed by the leaders of empowerment and strength period, to be followed by figures like quasi-leaders who quarrel among themselves, ending up towards collapse and extinction.

When was the last time an Israeli party, or a homogeneous Israeli wing, was able to form a ruling coalition that would lead Israel for a full constitutional period in the state’s history since its founding?

In light of a complex global scene full of alignments and tensions, it suffers from violent changes in alliances and centers of power, from China to the United States, through Russia and Europe, to Africa, which is witnessing a waves against Western/European (French) influence, and even the countries of Central and Latin America, which suffered in the decades of the sixties, seventies, and eighties of the last century, under dictatorship regimes supported by the United States, and was a playground for the US foreign policy engineered by the US foreign policies’ Godfather, Henry Kissinger, it has also become today an arena for competition between the West and the East.

Day after day, events continue and accelerating in a way that makes our awareness of the magnitude of the losses that will befall Israel, the United States, and the West in general fall short of accurately predicting or understanding what the actual reality will be like in the future.

Every day we see a new development, opening up new horizons of developments before us, which we thought were related to the day before, until we began to reconsider many of our assumptions.

For the first time in Israel, the people there witnessed the absolute selfishness of their leaders, and their indifference to a disaster that led to the death of hundreds, the capture of dozens, and left thousands to demonstrate for two hundred days without any of the state’s leaders paying attention to them.

This matter is the last nail in the coffin of what some ignorant people in this world continue to describe as (the only democracy in the Middle East).

For the first time since the establishment of Israel, the inability of its leaders to manage a crisis or manage the economy of the state which is in war is clearly evident, which can be described as existential without exaggeration.

For the first time, the inability of Western economic aid to sustain the dilapidated Israeli economy, as it facing bankruptcies, and today its witnessing faltering in all sectors, especially sensitive ones like banking and insurance, not just tourism and trade, and the High-tech sector, which over the past few years has been the crown jewel of Israel’s prosperity, is today in a state of clinical death awaiting the decision to turn off the ventilator, which also needs energy to work, not to mention the rise in the prices of various goods, higher taxes and value-added tax, layoff campaigns, and the imposition of compulsory, unpaid, indefinite leave on workers and employees.

Even the army itself suffers from a scarcity of logistics and ammunition for all types of weapons, and relies on weekly or even almost daily American supplies!

The biggest loss lies in the loss of the media war and the international public relations war, which have always been among the arenas of confrontation whose outcome was decided in favor of Israel.

On the media level, it has become clear to the whole world about the continuous lying of Israel’s leaders, their constant lamentation, and their exploitation of the eternal oppression of the Jewish people throughout history in a vulgar manner, even after they have acquired a nuclear arsenal.

This is what even many of the Jews around the world, whom we now see them among the protestors against Israel.

As for public relations, the entry of universities into the anti-war movement in countries such as the United States will deprive Israel of huge funds and partnerships in terms of scientific research and academic cooperation, which will severely harm the Israeli economy, not to mention the halt of many huge projects on which Israel’s future depends on various aspects, Military and civil levels.

It’s worth noting that universities in the United States in particular, and throughout history, have played an influential and transformative role in US policy on several important issues.

The fact that professors and students in universities use Western principles and values to defend issues opposed to Western projects based on these same values raises the state of alert among these governments and warns them that magic has turned against the magician.

It’s clear that the step of putting Netanyahu and some Israeli leaders on trial is an acrobatic move to save the rest of the system and stop the continuing deterioration that will lead to the destruction of the deep Western system that runs the world according to specific political, social, economic and philosophical principles.

What is happening now in terms of massacres, and being transmitted moment by moment via mobile devices, media, and social media, will lead to the opening of all similar files in the world, even old ones, such as the extermination of the Native Americans for example.

Countries that oppose the Western project stand idly by in the face of what is happening, waiting for the expected collapse of the West, and choosing for reaction to be a means for them to participate in current international events, is a grave mistake and incomprehensible insensitivity.

Sitting and waiting for the battle of Rafah to begin, which will lead to a huge humanitarian catastrophe, is something that will not be erased from the global collective human consciousness, which will make global public opinion put the West and anti-Westerns in one basket, and which will hold everyone responsible for failure and global moral downfall.

Here we find no better evidence than the Turkish scene; The reason for the fall of the Justice and Development Party in the recent municipal elections, and according to most estimates, was due to the reluctance of the party’s own supporters to vote in the elections, an expression of their rejection of the modest Turkish policy in supporting the Gaza issue, and even the existence of a contradiction between What is being said, and what is being done on the ground, is what Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan was forced to announce explicitly in his speech after the end of voting and the counting of the results, when he said (message received) and later demonstrated this by taking escalatory steps and imposing economic sanctions on Israel.

What can be offered as strong advice is to take a new approach, one that lives up to the magnitude of the event and what is hoped for from it and its results.

Whoever works to establish a multipolar world must take effective action in this regard, and his movement must be interactive and integrated with the momentum of the peoples in the world.

The people are the ones that can be bet on, and they are the strongest guarantee and the flexible and effective ally that never dies, because they pass on their ideas from generation to generation.

As for relying on force alone, force is destroyed and extinguished by changes and aging, because we have learned from history that even states and kingdoms are getting old and aging.

As for Islam, it’s expected that it will be a major rising force in this new century, and that it will be the winning party, due to its integrated, legal and moral thought that suits every human being who possesses common sense.

For all of this, all forces fighting Western hegemony must extend the hand of alliance with Islam.

The forces of liberation and Islam are in the same trench in any case, and all that is required is cooperation between them and work in harmony and complementarity.

The question that arises now is: Did Hamas knew when it carried out Operation Al Aqsa Flood that this operation would have the effect of a global flood like Noah’s Flood?

The answer is simply… we don’t know, and it doesn’t necessarily have to be their intention… as the old proverb says, “A flash in the pan”.

Finally, the one who wrote this long episodic article, with all humility, a man of faith and knows that predestination is a divine will.

Only God has the ability to manage and run things, not artificial intelligence!
