While Biden-Harris Want Two States, Palestinian Authority Wants Genocide of Jews

While Israel is fighting a war of its existence on seven fronts, the Biden-Harris administration continues to insist that a two-state solution is still viable. But like Hamas, the Palestinian Authority (PA) wants to wage genocide and endless war on Israel and the Jewish people. So, a Palestinian state is a bad idea.

Palestinian preachers are broadcasting calls for genocide of the Jews on PA-run media. PA sharia law Judge Abdallah Harb in July stated on Official PA TV: “Allah, strike your enemies, the enemies of your religion…the aggressive Jews…kill them one by one, Allah count them and kill them one by one, and do not leave even one of them, O Master of the Universe.” An additional unidentified PA preacher made a very similar call for genocide on Official PA TV earlier in August: “O Allah, strike the thieving Jews, O Master of the Universe. Allah, count them and kill them one by one, and do not leave even one of them.”

Major figures in the Palestinian Authority, who much of the world still believes is a secular organization, continue to call for religious war against Israel. Qadura Fares, the Director of PLO Commission of Prisoners’ Affairs, stated that “The time has come to express our anger…I ask Almighty Allah to give us inspiration on the correct path and the correct choice, and that we will set out on an intifada against criminal [Israeli Prime Minister] Netanyahu and all his gangs.” Mahmoud Al-Habbash, PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’ Advisor on Religious Affairs and Islamic Relations, called for a jihad against Ashkelon, a city in Israel, calling it a “city in Palestine.” Habbash further called on “all Islamic states” to “take back Jerusalem” by “all means and ways.”

And the PA continues to brainwash its children to support violence against Jews. The PA continues to support martyrdom of Palestinian youth. The largest summer camp in the PA is named after Salah Khalaf AKA “Abu Iyad,” who was the mastermind of the 1972 Munich Olympics terror attack, and the head of the terrorist group Black September. In that camp, the children are taught to memorize the “Cry and Motto” of the summer camp, which includes praising Abu Iyad and also fellow arch-terrorists Khalil Al-Wazir AKA “Abu Jihad” and Yasser Arafat. The kids in the summer camp also have t-shirts that feature Abu Iyad’s name and picture. There is a banner on camp grounds that features pictures of Abu Iyad, Abu Jihad, and Yasser Arafat dressed in military uniforms.

The PA is proud of the name of this camp. In the official PA daily Al-Hayat Al-Jadida website, the PA admits that “…[t]he camp is named after Martyr Salah Khalaf ‘Abu Iyad’ to eternalize the memory and symbolism of one of the prominent leaders of the Palestinian national movement… He was one of the most prominent founders of Fatah, a member of its Central Committee… He established the first security forces of the revolution, the surveillance organization, and stood alongside Yasser Arafat, Khalil Al-Wazir [Abu Jihad], and Saad Sayel in commanding the revolution’s forces. He participated in all its battles until his death as a Martyr on Jan. 14, 1991 in Tunisia.”The PA also admits that it will continue “…honoring the Martyrs by naming schools, culture centers, streets, squares, university halls, university graduating classes, courses of the Palestinian [PA] security establishment, summer camps, and more after them.”

How can the Biden-Harris administration believe that Israel can make peace with an entity such as the PA? The PA is cut from the same jihadist cloth as Hamas. For true peace, the Biden-Harris administration should strengthen the Abraham Accords, and pressure Qatar, Turkey and others to force Hamas to surrender and release the hostages, rather than continuing to float the forever bad idea of a two-state solution.

Trump’s Middle East Policy Taking Shape

What would a new Trump administration mean for the Middle East? Expect the following:

Increased Pressure on Iran and its Proxies

Brian Hook, Trump’s former special envoy to Iran who is believed to be leading Trump’s transition team for the State Department, stated that the new Trump administration would seek to “…isolate Iran diplomatically and weaken them economically, so that they can’t fund all of the violence…” coming from Iran’s proxies, “…all of whom destabilize Israel and our Gulf partners.” This approach contrasts with the Biden-Harris administration, who engaged the Islamic Republic diplomatically and economically, and even removed the Houthis from the Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) entity list from February 2021 through January 2024. That being said, Hook also stated that the new Trump administration would have “no interest in regime change” in Iran, and that decisions about the future of Iran lies with its people.

The Trump administration may green light an Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear sites. GOP spokeswoman Elizabeth Pipko refused to say whether President-elect Trump would approve of Israel attacking Iran’s nuclear sites, stating that Trump should speak for himself on this issue and will do so when he assumes office. However, Trump had stated in October that Israel should strike Iran’s nuclear sites. In contrast, the Biden-Harris administration vocally opposed Israel attacking Iran’s nuclear sites or oil fields, and Israel’s attack plans were leaked to Iran through someone in the Biden-Harris administration’s Defense department.

Striving to End Wars in Lebanon and Gaza

According to Pipko, President-elect Trump wants Israel to end the wars in Gaza and Lebanon quickly, decisively, and with victory. Pipko contrasted this approach with the Biden-Harris administration’s “back and forth” policy, and that the Biden-Harris administration was pressuring how Israel conducts war based on election considerations. The Biden-Harris administration was guilty of “armchair quarterbacking” Israel’s wars in an unproductive way, including by leaking Israel’s plans to strike Lebanon, opposing the Rafah invasion, and opposing the killing of several arch-terrorists.

Trump will also likely prioritize the release of the hostages; Trump recently threatened Hamas, stating that if they did not free its hostages before inauguration day, it will pay “a very big price.” In contrast, the Biden-Harris administration has been spinning its wheels in endless failed diplomacy with Qatar, having not produced a hostage deal with Hamas since November 2023.

Pursuing a Conditional Peace with Palestinians

President-elect Donald Trump will likely re-visit his 2020 peace plan between Israel and the Palestinians, according to Brian Hook. Regarding the 2020 plan, Hook stated that “much of that work is still relevant today.”

On the issue of a Palestinian state, expect that the Trump administration won’t pursue a Palestinian state unconditionally for its own sake, as the Biden-Harris administration has. Hook conceded that Trump’s 2020 plan, which was endorsed by Israel and U.S.’ allies in the Gulf, “had a path to a two-state solution.” But Hook also recognized that Israelis are not focused on a Palestinian state now, and are instead focused on protecting themselves from terrorism in the wake of the October 7, 2023 attack on Israel.

Additionally, Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas outright rejected the 2020 plan, and the plan also required the PA to provide security guarantees for Israel, recognize Israel, and allow Israeli citizens to remain in Judea and Samaria, all of which the PA did not agree to. If the new Trump administration seeks to revive this plan, it will likely revive these conditions for a Palestinian state as well. The PA will then in turn likely reject it a second time, proving again that the PA is not a partner for peace.

Expanding the Abraham Accords

President-elect Trump is also poised to expand the Abraham Accords. Trump brokered normalization deals between Israel and the UAE, Bahrain, Morocco, and Sudan. Reportedly, the previous Trump administration was on the verge of expanding the Abraham Accords to Indonesia and Mauritania, but were prevented from doing so once the administration’s term expired. During the past Trump administration, Saudi Arabia had been trying to get Pakistan to join the Abraham Accords as well.

In contrast, the Biden-Harris administration failed to add any countries to the Abraham Accords. Most notably is the administration’s failure to clinch an Israel-Saudi Arabia deal after chilling US relations with Saudi Arabiaand insisting on a Palestinian state as an integral part of any deal. The Biden-Harris administration seems content with now pursuing a bilateral US-Saudi deal that ices out Israel, which would completely undermine the spirit of the Abraham Accords.

Jared Kushner has had multiple discussions with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on the issue of US-Israel-Saudi relations since President-elect Trump left office. So given past efforts, the new Trump administration could clinch Abraham Accords deals with Indonesia, Mauritania, Oman, and/or the big prize, Saudi Arabia.
