With three billion in annual military aid to Israel, Americans are subsidizing the construction of Israel's illegal settlements

  The coming to power of Benjamin Netanyahu means that now the killing of the Palestinians is certain. Netanyahu’s hand is in the blood of the Palestinians. Netanyahu had just taken over the government and killed nine Palestinians. In response, a Palestinian killed seven Israelis. This has been going on for seven decades and no one has any solution. Those who created Israel and told the Palestinians that their independent states will also be side by side. But seven decades have passed, and two Palestinian generations left the world for them to have an independent state in which their children will live freely. But those who are champions of human rights in the world do not feel guilty that Palestinians have been deprived of human rights for seven decades. This is not a question of religion or antisemitic, this is a question of humanity. Israeli guns and tanks have been standing on the necks of Palestinians for seventy years. This is a new record of military occupation of a population in the world. Those countries should be ashamed who talk about the free world, but in seventy years they have not given the Palestinians the freedom of this free world. The way Black people were treated in America in the 50s and 60s is what is happening to Palestinians in Israel today. In America, if white people take bulldozers to go to the areas of Black people and start demolishing their homes, what will they do?

  Among all the presidents who came to power in America till now, President Bill Clinton made tireless efforts for the rights and freedom of the Palestinians. He was a devoted friend of the Palestinians. During President Clinton’s administration, Chairman Yasser Arafat visited the White House the most no other head of state in the world had made so many visits to the White House. President Clinton was from a southern state in the United States where racism against blacks was brutal. Therefore, President Clinton was aware of the sufferings of the Palestinian apartheid. President Obama was America’s first Black president, but President Obama did nothing to resolve the Palestinian conflict. President Clinton negotiated the peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians and the resulting agreements. President Bush put them in storage. And allowed Israeli leaders to impose their solution on the Palestinians. President Obama should have advanced the peace process from the issues that were agreed upon between Israel and the Palestinian and the agreement that was signed by President Clinton. President Obama reaffirmed the agreements that had been reached between Israel and the Palestinians and continued efforts for a final solution to the conflict. President Obama could have appointed former President Bill Clinton as a special envoy to resolve the dispute. President Obama did not consider the Israel-Palestinian conflict important. Instead, the wars that President Bush did not end, President Obama went ahead with them. President Obama took the wars to Libya, Syria, and Yemen. America’s wars in the Arab world were making families refugees, and in Israel, the government used to destroy the houses of Palestinians with bombs and bulldozers and make them homeless. And then new Jewish settlements were built on their land.

  This American policy has continued since Henry Kissinger when he was Secretary of State, and whenever there was a war between the Arabs and Israel. Henry Kissinger would pick up his briefcase and leave for a Middle East peace mission. He used to give bandages to the Arabs, and Israel was told not to make any new adventures until the wounds of the Arabs were healed. This is the role of America for six decades. Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah, comforted him, and gave him a bandage. Secretary Blinken told Prime Minister Netanyahu that if he wanted to have diplomatic relations with Saudi Arabia, he would have to rein in the fanatical religious extremists in his government.

  The United States told the leaders of the Arab Islamic countries that when the Cold War ends, they will resolve the Israel-Palestine conflict. Then it was said that Saddam Hussein is a big obstacle in the solution of this conflict, when the problem of Saddam Hussein is solved, then the Palestine-Israel conflict will be solved. Then it was said when terrorism ends, then the Palestine-Israel conflict will be resolved. Then it was said that the Palestinians should bring new leadership and there will be negotiations with them.

  And now the rulers of the Gulf have recognized Israel and established relations with it that will help solve the Palestinian problem. But there are no signs of that. There is no change in Israel’s attitude towards Palestinians. The pace of displacing Palestinians and building new Jewish settlements has accelerated.
