Hamas Warns Arab Countries against Supporting Trump Plan
In letters to leaders of Arab and Muslim countries as well as heads of the Arab League and Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Ismail Haniyeh underlined the need for a decisive stance against the United States’ one-sided support for the Zionist regime’s occupation and its attempts to Judaize Palestine, Shehabnews website reported.
He also called on all of the countries and organizations to immediately and unequivocally voice their opposition to the US plan.
Supporting the so-called deal of the century would be a grave mistake and the Palestinian nation who has been facing more than 70 years of occupation will not forgive it, Haniyeh went on to say.
After months of running a vast propaganda machine to drum up support for his self-proclaimed 'Deal of the Century,' US President Donald Trump finally unveiled what he believes can serve as a final antidote to the bitter and brutal Israeli-Palestinian conflict that has dragged on for seven decades.
Within just hours since its launch on Tuesday, Trump’s proposed deal aroused a storm of indignation and opposition among Middle East people and politicians as well as international organizations, earning descriptions such as 'the treason of the century, nightmare, conspiracy, catastrophe, new Balfour Declaration, an annexation plan, a stillborn agreement, a handbook for more suffering, and a deal for the garbage can of history' among others.
Contrary to Trump’s claim who sought to sell his proposal as a win-win opportunity for both sides, political leaders and activists view it as being hugely skewed in favor of Israel and totally ignoring the rights and demands of up to 15 million Palestinians around the world, leaving them out of a process that is expected to decide their fate and their future.
Opponents argue that the highly pro-Israel scheme offers no prescription for peace because it blatantly violates international law and strips Palestinians of their basic rights on a number of sensitive issues, including the state of Jerusalem al-Quds, the future borders of a sovereign Palestinian state, the return of Palestinian refugees driven from their homeland, security responsibility, as well as Israeli settlements built on occupied land.
