However unreasonable and unfathomable it might seem, by Western democratic standards, Hamas is the legitimate leader of the Palestinian Authority.

The Security Council, which controls the procedure through which states are recognized, clearly acknowledged that no “State of Palestine” exists.

If the international community is genuine in its desire to provide aid to Palestinians and not to further line the corrupt Palestinian Authority officials’ pockets, it should reconsider the manner in which the aid is provided.

“Palestine” would be a dictatorial, racist state that flouts basic human rights.

While UN OCHA statistics on Gaza are presented as legitimate U.N. figures, they are not, and never have been.

Recognizing and accepting the Oslo Accords’ abject failure would allow all the relevant actors to re-evaluate and develop alternative solutions.

Or does it simply hate Israel so much it is willing to use them as pawns and cannon fodder.

Imagine if a US presidential advisor made such comments about black Americans.

Mahmoud Abbas and the Palestinians are clinging to a dead letter.

Despite gobbling billions in American aid, the Palestinian Authority sees the US as the “enemy.”
