It’s been 16 years since the borders of the Gaza Strip slammed shut after Hamas militants seized control of the territory. Know more:
A European Union observer watches Palestinians pass from Egypt into the Gaza Strip at the Rafah border on July 18, 2006. The European Union withdrew the monitoring mission formed to promote a two-state solution between Israel and the Palestinians from Gaza after the Hamas militant group seized power in 2007. But 16 years later, the mission continues to maintain offices in Israel in hopes of one day returning.
This week’s deadly Israeli raid of a West Bank militant stronghold and previous eruptions of violence also underscore the limits of international efforts to contain the conflict. “There is no other solution. Everything else is almost inevitably a prescription for disaster,” Olmert said. Without partition, the default is an apartheid-like reality in which a shrinking Jewish minority controls a growing Arab majority with few political rights. Leading rights groups say an apartheid system is already in place.
Preoccupied with the war in Ukraine and its rivalry with China, the Biden administration has done little more than condemn Israeli settlement plans and call for de-escalation. In academic and human rights circles, many now speak about a “one-state reality” – in which Israel wields overall control over Palestinians. Muasher said given this environment, it is time for the world to focus on Palestinian human rights instead of unrealistic peace plans.
Nearly a generation ago, when EUBAM was established, Palestinian statehood hopes hadn’t yet been crushed.
