Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Wednesday at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, that a “Palestinian state” is needed as a result of the conflict sparked by the terrorist group Hamas, which killed 1,200 Israelis on October 7. That's what he said.
Blinken and President Joe Biden have stubbornly defended their position, insisting that a Palestinian state is a necessary condition for Israel's integration into the Middle East, the very thing that President Donald Trump abandoned with the Abraham Accords. It's a well-established theory.
President Trump set aside the conventional wisdom of Washington and Davos to negotiate a peace deal between Israel and Arab states that does not depend on a Palestinian state. In particular, Secretary of State John Kerry Said could not.
Mr. Blinken and Mr. Biden do not seem concerned that the Palestinians are not interested in a state. Given the opportunity to rule Gaza, Hamas used aid money and supplies to import weapons and build. 350 miles None of the underground tunnels are for civilian use.
The Palestinian Authority, a so-called “moderate” alternative whose military is trained by the United States, is targeting Palestinian terrorists even though doing so means losing U.S. funding for economic and social development. and their families.
Both Hamas and the Palestinian Authority are primarily interested in replacing Israel, not coexisting peacefully with Israel. The events of October 7th are Sure Even left-wing Israelis argued that granting sovereignty to the Palestinians was unsafe and foolish.
Blinken and Biden also said that giving the Palestinians statehood after the worst genocide of Jews since World War II would be the reward, encouraging future terrorism and denying the Palestinians something to achieve through diplomacy. He doesn't seem to care that he will be giving away what he did.
Worse, Blinken and Biden have suggested that the October 7th terrorist attack was caused by Palestinian statelessness, which led to mass murders, rapes, kidnappings of civilians, and continued violence against Israel. Retroactively justifying rocket attacks.
The Biden administration is staffed by many of the same foreign policy elites who embraced the old and failed “Palestine First” model. No wonder, then, that not a single Arab or Muslim country has joined the Abraham Accords since Biden took office.
Indeed, when Saudi Arabia sought peace with Israel last year, the Biden administration reportedly slowed progress by insisting on concessions to the Palestinians. The elites in Washington and Davos want a Palestinian state more than the Palestinians or Arabs.
