Meaningless statement. Israel is dominating Palestinians and Arabs because Arab so-called moderate leadership normalized Zionism, it does not recognize Palestinians as the native people, nor respects them, nor has static borders. Since the normalization campaign of the Arabs, Israeli officials have displayed their borders from the Nile to the Euphrates.

America wants Israel to become the leader in the middle east. This is what MBS is 'protesting', he wants America to remain the leader, hence his pursuit of a security pact with America. The rest is tactical maneuvering to give the appearance they are "closing in on Israel". He does not care about Arabs/Muslims.

Israel will annex West Bank. He doesn't mention Gaza, atleast in this clip. They probably want the Gulfies to commit tens of billions to rebuild Gaza (the profit will go to Israel), then they will annex it.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is currently facing a criminal investigation regarding allegations that he tampered with records of war cabinet meetings related to the recent Gaza conflict. The accusations suggest Netanyahu altered documentation from these critical meetings to possibly shape narratives in his favor, impacting decisions and influencing public perception. Additionally, his chief spokesperson, Eli Feldstein, was arrested amid suspicions of leaking sensitive information that could have hampered negotiations concerning Israeli hostages held by Hamas.

The scandal has drawn widespread criticism. Opposition figures, including former war cabinet member Benny Gantz and Opposition Leader Yair Lapid, argue that these alleged actions not only risk national security but may represent a grave misuse of political power for personal survival. Gantz even described the alleged document tampering as a "national crime" if proven. Meanwhile, Netanyahu has decried the investigation as a politically motivated "hunting expedition" against him

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman recently condemned Israel's actions in Gaza and Lebanon, calling them "genocide." Speaking at an Arab and Islamic summit in Riyadh, he emphasized the urgent need for the international community to halt Israel's military actions. The Crown Prince also called for the recognition of Palestine's full membership in the United Nations and the end of Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories

I think two state solution is over. Palestinians must get permanent residency and human rights according to UN conventions in their ancestral land, the right to return to it, to live and work there without fear and discrimination. Doubt they will be given voting rights because Jews want to be the majority. They could vote on civic issues probably, not on political issues.

What will he do. Saudi security and economy depends on America. UAE, Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, and Sudan established diplomatic relations without conditioning it on Palestinian rights and statehood. They empowered Zionism with all their normalization talk. Arabs have taken out and defeated their own strengths and negotiation position.

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has expressed a strong desire to end the ongoing conflict in Gaza during a recent conversation with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. This dialogue comes amid escalating tensions and violence in the region, particularly following the Hamas attacks on October 7, 2023, which prompted a severe Israeli military response.

Context of the Conflict​

The conflict has resulted in catastrophic humanitarian consequences, with over 43,000 Palestinians reported dead, many of whom are women and children. In contrast, Israel has suffered significant casualties as well, with more than 1,200 Israeliskilled in the initial attacks. The situation has led to widespread displacement and a dire humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where basic necessities such as food, water, and medical supplies are critically lacking.

Trump's Commitment to Peace​

In his discussions with Abbas, Trump emphasized his commitment to achieving peace in the region. He stated that he wants to "get it over with" and restore stability as soon as possible. However, there are concerns about how this commitment will translate into action, especially given Trump's history of strong support for Israel and his previous administration's policies that favored Israeli interests.

Implications for U.S. Foreign Policy​

Trump's potential return to the presidency raises questions about how U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East might shift. His administration previously recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital and withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal, actions that were met with significant backlash from Palestinian leaders and their supporters. Critics worry that Trump's approach could embolden Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, particularly given Netanyahu's far-right coalition government that advocates for aggressive military actions against Palestinians.

Palestinian Concerns​

Many Palestinians fear that Trump's presidency could worsen their plight. Residents of Gaza express anxiety that Trump's strong alliance with Israel might lead to increased military operations and settlement expansions in Palestinian territories. The sentiment among Palestinians is one of skepticism; they worry that Trump's promises may not translate into meaningful change on the ground.Ahmed Jarad, a resident of Gaza who has been displaced due to ongoing violence, articulated this fear: "With Trump back in power, our hopes for peace seem even more distant." Similarly, other residents have voiced concerns that Trump's administration will prioritize Israeli security over Palestinian rights and aspirations for self-governance.

The Humanitarian Crisis​

The humanitarian situation in Gaza is dire. The United Nations has warned that over 11 million children under five years old are at risk due to worsening air quality caused by toxic smog and ongoing violence. The smog crisis has been exacerbated by agricultural burning and industrial emissions, leading to severe health implications for vulnerable populations.UNICEF has called for urgent action to address air pollution and protect children's health, emphasizing that prior to this year's extreme conditions, air pollution was already responsible for about 12%of deaths among children under five in Pakistan.

Conclusion​

As Donald Trump prepares to take office again, the complexities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict remain unresolved. His commitment to ending the violence in Gaza is welcomed by many but remains clouded by skepticism regarding his administration's historical stance on Palestinian rights. The international community watches closely as tensions continue to rise in the region, hoping for a resolution that prioritizes peace and humanitarian needs over political agendas.

In a heartbreaking scene from Gaza, a 4-year-old girlhas been found searching for food all alone amidst the catastrophic humanitarian crisis engulfing the region. The ongoing conflict, exacerbated by a severe blockade and military operations, has left millions in desperate need of basic necessities, particularly food and clean water.

The Humanitarian Crisis​

The situation in Gaza has reached alarming levels, with reports indicating that 11 million children under the age of five are at high risk due to malnutrition and starvation. The United Nations has highlighted the dire circumstances, stating that nearly 90%of children in Gaza lack adequate nutrition, facing severe threats to their survival and development. The recent escalation of violence has led to widespread destruction of agricultural land and infrastructure, severely limiting access to food supplies.Families are struggling to find even the most basic sustenance. Many have resorted to making bread from animal feed or other non-edible materials due to the scarcity of flour and other essential ingredients. One mother recounted how her family mistakenly purchased what they thought was flour, only to discover it was actually animal feed, leading to stomach ailments among her children.

Daily Struggles for Survival​

In northern Gaza, families are rationing their last supplies of food as they navigate through the rubble of destroyed homes in search of anything edible. Reports describe people scavenging through bombed-out buildings for remnants of food, often finding only moldy flour or canned goods. The psychological toll is immense; children are not only physically suffering but are also experiencing anxiety and trauma from the ongoing violence and uncertainty.A mother named Cherihan Chaher Askar shared her experience of preparing a "soup" made only from water and weeds dug from the ground, emphasizing that there is no real nourishment available for her children. Many families report that they go days without proper meals, relying on whatever scraps they can find.

The Role of Aid Organizations​

Humanitarian organizations like UNICEF have called for immediate action to address the escalating crisis. They warn that without substantial intervention, the situation will worsen, leading to increased mortality rates among vulnerable populations, especially children. Aid deliveries have been severely hampered by ongoing military operations and blockades, leaving many families without access to essential supplies.Despite international calls for assistance, aid organizations face significant challenges in delivering food and medical supplies due to security concerns and logistical barriers. The World Food Program recently suspended aid deliveries into northern Gaza after its convoys faced gunfire and looting.

Conclusion: A Call for Action​

The plight of this young girl searching for food is emblematic of the broader humanitarian disaster unfolding in Gaza. As families continue to suffer from starvation and malnutrition, it is crucial for the international community to respond urgently to alleviate the suffering of millions. The situation demands immediate attention and action to ensure that humanitarian aid reaches those in desperate need before it’s too late. The world must recognize that Gaza is not just a conflict zone; it is home to millions of innocent civilians enduring unimaginable hardships.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has intensified his rhetoric against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his administration, accusing them of committing war crimes against Palestinians in Gaza. In his recent statements, Erdogan likened Netanyahu and his government to the "Nazis of our time," comparing their actions to the infamous regimes of Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini. Erdogan has expressed that those involved in the actions against Palestinians will be held accountable, highlighting the international legal pursuit for justice, not just for Netanyahu but for everyone complicit in the violence
