When Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu explained to the World his ideas about the new Middle East in New York last month, I was wondering how the Palestinians must feel when realizing that they have been totally sidelined, with Saudi Arabia now allying with its former (and their) arch enemy.

Donald Trump’s arrogating and totally misleading tweet of late December 2020 (a couple of days before his attempted coup on January 6, 2021) was supposed to claim the Nobel Peace prize for his so-called Abraham Accords, an attempt for normalzing relationships between a couple of states in the Middle East and North Africa, i.e. Bahrain, UAE, Morocco, and Sudan.

Likewise, no mentioning of the root conflict in the region, the unsolved Israel-Palestine cause. In order to counter Hamas’ astounding attacks, Israel will probably once more set the whole Middle East on fire.

The humanitarian catastrophe of 2 Million people in Gaza who were told “to leave” (where?) will be unprecedented. I have written about the destruction of Sheja-iya in 2014 here. The ghetto will be razed now.
