The Zionist objectives in Gaza remain unfulfilled. Hamas must not yield to the Arab conspiracy

Wednesday 28 February 2024
The Zionist objectives in Gaza remain unfulfilled. Hamas must not yield to the Arab conspiracy

Multiple European nations, along with Qatar, Egypt, France, and the Zionist regime have participated in the ceasefire talks in Paris, yet there is no evident outlook concerning this matter.

ALWAGHT- The Gaza conflict has persisted for 143 days without achieving an effective ceasefire to enable the delivery of humanitarian aid and halt Zionist atrocities against civilians. Additionally, the escalation of hostilities from northern to southern Gaza has repeatedly alerted UN officials to the impending humanitarian crisis and healthcare deficiencies.

Nevertheless, recent days have seen increased political activity aimed at securing a ceasefire agreement. Western negotiators in Paris are exploring the potential effectiveness of these talks.

Meanwhile, some media outlets have mentioned plans to incorporate Palestinian groups into a technocratic government. They cite the resignation of Mohammed Ishtayeh, the Palestinian Authority Prime Minister, as a step toward this goal.

Despite these positive developments, Zionist authorities, led by Benjamin Netanyahu, remain resolute in continuing the war. They are undeterred by domestic pressure and insist on military action, even if a temporary agreement with Hamas is reached. Hamas rejects this stance and demands international guarantees to halt Zionist aggression and ensure compliance with agreements.

The US government, while claiming to pressure Tel Aviv for a ceasefire, persists in vetoing resolutions proposed by other nations in the Security Council to end the conflict. This contradicts the sincerity of the White House's alleged positions.

To gain a clearer understanding of the Paris negotiations and their implications, "ALWAGHT" has conducted an interview with Asghar Zarei, a regional affairs expert.

The Paris talks are ongoing. Is there notable advancement in aligning perspectives to achieve an agreement?

Zarei stated that media reports indicate agreements for a one-week ceasefire and a prisoner exchange between Hamas and the Zionist regime. However, a concrete agreement has yet to be finalized.

Various European countries, Qatar, Egypt, France, and the Zionist regime participate in these negotiations, but the outlook on the issue remains unclear. Hamas emphasizes the importance of providing humanitarian aid and halting military operations in Gaza. Following the ceasefire, the exchange of prisoners becomes paramount. Netanyahu acknowledged pressure regarding prisoner releases but noted that this objective remains unmet.

Recent assessments from US news agencies and security intelligence centers highlight that a significant portion of Hamas forces remains in Gaza, posing challenges to the Zionist regime's efforts. This underscores Hamas's military capacity and increases pressure on Netanyahu and the Zionist regime.

Netanyahu's declaration suggests that he intends to persist with the assault on Rafah regardless of any agreement. What is the Zionist regime's position regarding the conditions on the battlefield and the negotiation table? Is Israel deliberately extending the process, pushing negotiations towards a standstill?

Zarei: The war's prolonged duration, exceeding four months, reflects Netanyahu's and the Zionist cabinet's determination to prolong the conflict. As I previously stated, none of the Zionist objectives in Gaza have been realized.

Presently, the global community and international bodies emphasize a precondition crucial for advancing negotiations: Netanyahu must agree to halt military operations in Gaza and Rafah. Only then can negotiation terms be established. Any subsequent actions, including a prisoner exchange, can be entertained after addressing this issue.

In the meantime, the Arab suggestion regarding the inclusion of Palestinian factions, including Hamas, into a technocratic administration has surfaced. Firstly, what objectives underlie this proposal? Secondly, given the opposition from the Palestinian Authority, will it yield any advancements?

Zarei: I consider this proposal to be a new conspiracy. Authorities of Hamas should not yield to it. The elimination of Hamas has been a primary objective pursued by the Zionist regime since the beginning of the conflict. Despite four months of ongoing warfare, the regime has been unable to force Hamas to surrender. Presently, through massacres and military operations, they are striving to accomplish their objectives. Collaborative Arab regimes, along with certain leaders, may introduce a conspiratorial movement in Palestine in the future. Similar to the initiative Mahmoud Abbas and his supporters undertook in the West Bank, they aim to extend it across Palestine and Gaza. In such a scenario, the struggle of resistance in this region would be grieved.

While Western-Arab nations pursue the implementation of the two-state plan during ceasefire negotiations, with Hamas and the Zionist regime as the main parties, each focusing on their war-related objectives, can a potential agreement incorporating the two-state proposal be anticipated despite the conflicting goals?

Zarei: The Western powers are advancing this initiative. President Macron of France addressed the matter of a two-state solution in the occupied territories during an interview, stressing the mutual efforts to cease hostilities. However, while this proposal isn't novel and has been broached previously, the Zionist regime remains disinclined to embrace it and refuses to acknowledge an independent Palestinian state.

Supporters of Hamas have endorsed Ismail Haniyeh as their leader. Conversely, in the West Bank, Mr. Mahmoud Abbas and his supporters have established a clandestine government. This scenario has enabled the Zionist regime to capitalize on the discord among Palestinian factions, rejecting the adoption and creation of a two-state resolution. I am of the opinion that Netanyahu and his aggressive cabinet are intent on prolonging the Palestinian and Gaza conflict by perpetuating warfare. Netanyahu's most significant challenges stem from the global consensus and public recognition of Israel's transgressions.

Washington's sincerity is questionable. While the United States brings up the matter of achieving a ceasefire agreement during negotiations, it simultaneously impedes the end of the war by vetoing Security Council resolutions. What is the Western agenda regarding the formation of ceasefire negotiations?

Zarei: Western administrations, led by the United States, maintain their consistent hypocritical approach toward the region's nations. While they outwardly claim to advocate for a ceasefire, they fail to take concrete actions toward fostering peace and stability in Gaza. Despite numerous proposed resolutions by the United Nations Security Council, including the recent one from Algeria urging an end to the conflict, they have been effectively nullified by America's veto power. Despite calls from human rights groups to halt the transfer of American F-35 fighter jets stored in the Netherlands to the Zionist regime, European governments persist in their shipments and sales of military equipment to Israel.

There seems to be no genuine intent to exert pressure on Netanyahu and his government to halt the war. In reality, it is the Pentagon that has assumed control of the battlefield with the initiation of Operation Al-Aqsa Storm. Utilizing drones over Gaza, they furnish military intelligence to Zionist military authorities and persistently pursue all forms of logistical, informational, and arms assistance to this regime. These actions serve primarily as political gestures and propaganda orchestrated by the White House and European governments. We've seen the German Foreign Minister explicitly declare, "We face no constraints in supporting Israel, and we will utilize all our resources to advance Israel's objectives." Opposition pressure is unlikely to sway these forms of support.
