Deep dives
Negotiations for Creating a Palestinian State Without Israel's Input
The US, Egypt, and Qatar are reportedly in negotiations to establish a Palestinian state without any involvement from Israel. The agreement may be announced by March 10th. However, a Middle East expert argues that the plan is deeply flawed and sends the wrong message to global aggressors.
Proposals for the Palestinian State
The proposed solution involves establishing a Palestinian state where the leaders are chosen by external actors. One major debate concerns the role of Hamas in the new Palestinian leadership. However, this plan lacks any authority or feasibility to impose such a solution.
Challenges and Concerns
The proposed boundaries of the Palestinian state would require Israel to evacuate parts of Judea and Samaria, including Jerusalem. Enforcing this plan would involve setting up a government in exile without any real power or control over the disputed areas. The pro-case for this plan relies on the US leveraging a combination of incentives and punishments to force Israel's compliance, but the implications would undermine trust and alienate other allies.
The US, Egypt and Qatar have begun negotiations to create a Palestinian state — without input from Israel. We speak to an Israel expert who says the proposal is deeply flawed. Get the facts first on Morning Wire.
