Only A Lasting Peace Can Replace War in The Middle East
In establishing
relations with Israel, the Saudi Government firmly adhered to King Abdullah’s declaration,
which is a unanimous resolution of the Arab League

The Saudi Arab Peace Initiative which was endorsed by the Arab League's 22 members during March 2002 Beirut Summit, outlined Comprehensive steps to ending the Palestinian-Israel conflict
Out of 365days of the
year, only 15 days of the year were spent talking about freedom, democracy, and
human rights. And 350 days of the war, talking about selling weapons, making weapons,
using weapons. Then there are the words of the wounded and the dead. Those who run
away in fear of wars have their say. Then there is talk of opening a new front of the war. And so, days, weeks, months, and years go by in terms of wars and weapons.
Where and with whom will the new war take place after the Ukraine war? Iran is
still on Israel’s radar. Seven years ago, the Obama-Biden administration
reached an agreement with Iran to end its nuclear program, which was terminated by
the Trump administration because it was not acceptable to Israel. President Biden
said in his election campaign that he would restore the agreement with Iran. But
President Joe Biden has not yet restored Vice president Joe Biden’s Iran deal. President
Biden has said he will reopen the American consulate in East Jerusalem. Which President
Trump closed after giving Jerusalem to Israel. President Biden has failed to
deliver on his promise. The US president has been opposed by the Israeli government
to the reopening of the US consulate in East Jerusalem. And President Biden has not
been able to overwrite it.
Israel and its lobby
have so much control over US decisions and policies. President Biden is due to
visit the Middle East in July. During the visit, President Biden will travel to
Saudi Arabia and Israel. The mission of this visit is to bring the Arab
countries closer to Israel. The Arabs will tell that when they establish
relations with Israel, it will help resolve the Palestinian issue. What difference
has the situation in occupied Palestine made from the Arabs countries that have
established relations with Israel? Israel’s policy of displacing Palestinians
and building new settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories has not
changed. There is no change in Israel’s behavior towards using full force
against the Palestinians. What difference does it make if eight more Arab
countries establish relations with Israel? Unless the root cause of the dispute is addressed, until then, tensions in the region will remain high. Israel’s policy
of forging relations with the Arabs by bypassing the root cause of the Middle
East conflict is half glass war and half glass peace. The Middle East is still
divided into pro-Israel and pro-Palestine. Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen, and
other Islamic countries, the support of the Palestinians will consider anti-Israel.
The Oslo Accord was a
genuine agreement to resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, which addressed
the root causes of the conflict. But it was nailed down by Israeli anti-Palestinian
leaders. Arab and Islamic countries can use the Oslo Accords as a base for
establishing relations with Israel. And the issues that Israel agreed and
signed with the Palestinians, Israel should implement. similarly, the
Palestinians should ensure the agreement they signed
regarding Israel’s security. Otherwise, the conditions set out in the
resolution of the Arab league’s Beirut summit for the establishment of
relations between Israel and the Arab Islamic countries, which the late Saudi King
Abdullah had stated to the world must implement. Only then can a lasting
peace replace war in the Middle East.
The coalition
government ended before President Biden’s visit to Israel and the fifth
election in three years will be held in October. This means that the Palestinians
will not have peace this year either. The US presidential election campaign
will start next year, then what will be the global situation? In which
direction will the storm of political winds blow in the world? How much longer
will the Palestinians be made to wait for peace? The United States is giving peace
to Israel by giving Arab countries to it.
