The State of Palestine is coming … Optimize with comrade "Shaat"

When I entered the seminar room organized by the Yasser Arafat Foundation in Cairo and directed by Amr Moussa, to find precise answers to the challenges that existed, I was waiting for a beautiful event: Nabil Shaath among the 17 speakers, I do not Have not seen for years.

I learned that no word had been announced to talk about electoral interactions in Israel and the possible rise of a new central power, led by General Gantz, who could be negotiated with the Palestinian state instead of the right-wing Netanyahu government.

We have heard painful research on the future of the Palestinian entity, presented by Elias Khoury, in which he made a very cogent recommendation, in his words: "A new vision is necessary to survive".

We also heard about the abuses of the American agreement reached in the last century, some parts of which have already been applied in trying to solve the refugee problem, as well as the transfer of the American embassy to Jerusalem, but I noticed that the researcher had not noticed the Arabic ability to correct the orientation of the agreement.

In my opinion, it was necessary to stop the huge and fruitful Arab efforts to introduce amendments to this biased and misleading American plan by the three influential countries, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the UAE United Arab Emirates, in the corridors of the Trump administration. From the West Bank region, land swaps outweighed the rest and made East Jerusalem the capital of the Palestinian state and helped to find a just solution to the refugee problem.

These amendments are being watched by Netanyahu, who boasts of his ability to bring peace and land together, and the rightwing Israeli, who believes in the country as a whole, hates him and says he will defeat him. He wins the elections of 9 April.

Those who will accept the Arab amendments to the peace agreement with the Arab states are the centrist bloc led by General Gantz, which will be supported by the Arab parties, the Labor parties and the Meretz and provides in its electoral program a conference of regional peace with the Arab countries.

I see we have three options:

1- Let the pessimists share their pessimism.

2- The optimism that the state of Palestine will come as a result of the firmness of the heroic Palestinian people and the efforts of Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates to amend the agreement of the century, and the road to the state will be open if General Gantz wins the formation of the government.

3 – or optimism about the method used by comrade Nabil Shaat, who had entrusted me with an important task in the fighting in 1982 and who is now the adviser to the Palestinian president for foreign affairs and international relations.

Shaath focused on the reality of Palestinian firmness, which he rightly described as strategic and monitoring indicators of the growth of Palestinian self-rule, and gave him the right to do so. consider and then extend his vision in the future to oversee a fundamental change, which will occur in the balance of power. A multipolar world leads to the establishment of international justice for the Palestinian cause in two or three years, provided that Palestinian determination persists.

So we are with the first two stations of optimism towards the end of the Israeli elections on April 9 and the second two or three years after the end of the biased unipolar world in favor of Israel.

The meeting with Rafiq Shaat, whom I had not known for decades, was an inseparable part of what was happening today: it had a decisive effect in 1982 during the Israeli invasion of Lebanon and the siege of President Arafat. in Beirut.

At the time, it was very important work for two things: the first to repel Israeli attempts to isolate Egypt and deepen its dispute with the Arab brothers. The second is the reunification of relations between Egypt and the PLO, after a blow to President Sadat's signing of the peace treaty with Israel to restore Sinai in 1979.

During this Israeli invasion, I oversaw the publication of the famous "How to Think Israel" page in the Egyptian newspaper Al-Akhbar, which required the approval of Mr. Ahmed Zein, editor-in-chief of the newspaper, to organize a symposium on behalf of the newspaper Al-Akhbar, in solidarity with the Palestine Liberation Organization and Lebanon against the Israeli aggression. L & # 39; PLO.

The seminar, attended by Dr. Dajani, Nabil Shaath, Mohamed Sobih, Secretary of the Palestinian National Council, Dr. Yahya Al-Jamal, Nabil Zaki and Fouad Nushee, as well as other representatives of the Egyptian parties, had extremely positive policies and moral standards in Egypt and the Arab world. Abandon its Arab commitments.

Mr. Zine preferred to publish the symposium for seven days on the full pages of Al-Akhbar, which prompted Israeli newspapers to launch the pseudonym "Open Land" on his page and to accept it with joy. .

I was persuaded at the time that the departure of the PLO from Beirut, near Palestine, would not put an end to its relations with the homeland. Return to the ### The PLO, chaired by Arafat, is back, but I am convinced that this independent state will be complemented by an independent state with East Jerusalem as its capital. Arab support, despite the Israeli right.
