(Gatestone Institute) Bassam Tawil - Both the U.S. administration and the British government have said they are considering recognizing a Palestinian state. These statements send a message to Hamas and other Palestinians that the Americans and British want to give them a prize for the Oct. 7 attack on Israel in which 1,200 Israelis were murdered, decapitated, raped, tortured and burned alive. The declared policy of the U.S. and Britain, ever since the painstakingly negotiated the 1993-95 Oslo Accords, has been that a two-state solution should come as part of a negotiated settlement between Israel and the Palestinians. If the Oslo Accords are so cavalierly abrogated, what do any international agreements mean, and why would any country sign one in the future? There was a Hamas-led potential Palestinian state in Gaza before Oct. 7. The U.S. and UK are now saying they want to copy-paste the Hamas-led state and import it to the West Bank and to the heart of Jerusalem. Do they see this would mean bringing Iran and its terror proxies right to the hilltops overlooking Ben-Gurion Airport and Tel Aviv? Why should any Palestinian leader return to the negotiating table with Israel when the Americans and British are already offering them a state on a platter, unilaterally and unconditionally? By making such statements, the U.S. and Britain are sending a message to the Palestinians that they can continue to carry out terrorist attacks against Israel and do not need to dismantle the multiple armed groups in the West Bank and Gaza or do anything at all. Those who are promoting the idea of creating a Palestinian terror state next to Israel are paving the way for more Oct. 7-like massacres. They are essentially asking Israel to commit suicide at a time when its soldiers are fighting to eradicate Hamas and ensure that Gaza will no longer serve Hamas, or its terror master Iran, as a base for murdering Jews, Americans, or anyone else in the West. 2024-02-06 00:00:00Full Article
