The PA is increasingly concerned that Israel may seek to annex parts of Judea and Samaria during the upcoming term of former President Donald Trump.
PA officials report that President Mahmoud Abbas has made a strategic decision to lift the boycott on Trump’s administration, resuming negotiations with Israel on the basis of a two-state solution.
The Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman, Mahmoud Abbas, is currently exploring the possibility of reconciling with his long-time political rivals within the Fatah movement to unite the faction in anticipation of the post-war scenario in the Gaza Strip.
Jordan has also called on Abbas to dissolve the current government and form a new one that would be more acceptable to the international community.
The IDF’s “Summer Camps” operation in northern Samaria is a pre-emptive strike against a terrorist army built by Iran, aimed at taking control of Judea and Samaria and renewing suicide attacks within Israel.
Senior security officials state that the operation’s goal is to dismantle the terrorist battalions, destroy their infrastructure—including laboratories for explosive device production—seize weapons, and apprehend wanted terrorists.
Senior security officials assert that the meeting of Palestinian factions in China aims to embarrass Israel and confront it with the fait accompli that both the Palestinian Authority (PA) and Hamas will control the Gaza Strip post-war. However, they believe this outcome is unlikely.
According to these officials, the Palestinian public remains indifferent to the meeting’s outcomes, viewing it as a facade of national unity.
The prospect of the PA returning to control the Gaza Strip is not practical. The Palestinian public does not support this idea, accusing the PA of corruption and acting as an executor for the Israeli security system.
The PA has already lost security control in northern Samaria and lacks the capability to manage the Gaza Strip or confront Hamas’ military wing.
Severe tensions persist between the PA and the Biden administration, fueled by recent American vetoes in the UN Security Council and the administration’s insistence on comprehensive reforms within the PA, including granting real powers to the new government. Mahmoud Abbas adamantly maintains full and centralized control over the PA and is banking on the upcoming US presidential elections to potentially alleviate the pressure he faces.
The Hamas movement is currently orchestrating a deceitful campaign, suggesting readiness for a two-state solution and a willingness to disarm following the establishment of a Palestinian state along the 1967 borders.This campaign is crafted to garner international legitimacy for Hamas’ continued governance in the Gaza Strip, despite the fact that its fundamental ideology and commitment to Israel’s destruction remain unchanged.
President Biden finds himself in a precarious situation in the Middle East. His administration’s efforts to advance a new vision for the region are facing significant challenges.
A recent telephone conversation between President Biden and the leaders of Egypt and Qatar highlights the administration’s struggles. However, it’s apparent that Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas, holds considerable influence over the pace of negotiations.
As the war in the Gaza Strip persists, Israel faces a critical question regarding the region’s governance post-conflict.
The new Palestinian PM presented the vision of the “Revitalized PA” that will be established, but there is no word in his vision about the war on terror, stopping the payment of salaries to terrorists and stopping incitement in the PA’s education system and media. There is also no statement of intent in his vision to return to the PA the security control over northern Samaria that it lost more than two years ago to armed terrorist groups supported by Iran.
