The Palestinian Authority will struggle to survive the 'deal of the century'
US President Donald Trump's widely rejected Middle East Peace Plan exposed the weaknesses of the Palestinian Authority , an organisation reduced to being Israel's security partner in the occupied territories.
"I don't think its collapse is in the interest of Israel and the US and therefore, they will make sure it doesn't collapse, but at the same time, it doesn't have the power to resist their colonialist deal," said Abir Kopty, a Palestinian writer and academic. "This happens 20 years or so after Oslo. The PA has been willing to be Israel's policeman across the West Bank, suppressing opposition. It runs a police state. That's the reality of what the PA is. There have been no elections for many years," Loewenstein concludes.
Abbas has been heavily criticised for institutionalising and facilitating the Israeli occupation and pacifying a Palestinian resistance which previously launched two powerful intifadas.
