When will the Arabs have their project?

Author: Talal Okal

While some are turning a deaf ear, closing their minds, or continuing to ignore the Zionist project, which is expanding to include seven Arab countries, Benjamin Netanyahu has chosen not to evade, and has placed everyone before the inevitable fate.
The theme of "From the Euphrates to the Nile, your land, O Israel," which adorns the flag and the anthem, is no longer an analytical or questionable matter, after Netanyahu declared that he is historically and spiritually charged with achieving the goal of "Greater Israel."
Starting with the historic land of Palestine, what is happening in Gaza, which aims to occupy it, not just control it, as they claim, coincides perfectly with what is happening in full swing in the West Bank after sovereignty was declared over Jerusalem.
Netanyahu's statements also coincided with those of Bezalel Smotrich, who declared that the time had come to declare sovereignty over the West Bank and bury the "two-state solution" by expanding and fattening settlements and implementing the E1 plan, which would separate the southern West Bank from its center and north, and separate Jerusalem from all the cities and villages of the West Bank.
The Arabs did not believe, or did not want to believe, Netanyahu when he announced from the podium of the United Nations General Assembly in September 2023, that is, before the "Al-Aqsa Intifada," a map of the Jewish state that included all of historic Palestine.
The Arabs did not believe, until Netanyahu brazenly announced his "Greater Israel" plan, that what was happening in Palestine was the prelude and first stage of a broader plan targeting their land, sovereignty, and wealth.
The Arabs and Muslims, too, did not believe that the Palestinian people, who were resisting these plans on Palestinian land, were actually defending Arab interests, and that the day would come when some would say: I was eaten the day the white bull was eaten.
The Arabs believe, or are deceiving themselves, when they think they can ward off the danger to their regimes, their dignity, and their sovereignty by courting the one who poses the primary threat to them. So they resorted to the “Abrahamic Peace.”
Arabs ignore the fact that the occupying state, throughout its history, has not adhered to any agreements or treaties except when it ensures its hegemony and control.
The Arabs have stockpiled weapons and ammunition, and spent vast sums of money on futile wars against each other, based on secondary priorities. Each regime believes that it alone is capable of protecting itself and its people by entrusting its affairs and security to foreign powers whose ambitions are not hidden.
Arabs compete for influence at each other's expense, believing they will transform into regional superpowers. However, this is at the expense of their brethren, unaware that those in the region who possess the power and will will turn all their temporary and limited achievements into gains for those who rely on force majeure as the sole means of achieving their goals.
The Arabs have abandoned the Palestinian cause and its people more than once, and each time they have re-emerged, it has been after Palestinian uprisings and heavy costs paid by the Palestinians. In most cases, they have viewed the Palestinian cause as a burden on their stability, security, and existence.
Unfortunately, the Gaza experience, before Netanyahu announced his goal of "Greater Israel," indicates that the Arabs had not yet awakened, until they were shocked and provoked by the failure of their language dictionaries to demonstrate their seriousness in denouncing, rejecting, and warning, and demanding that the international community deter the occupying state and prevent it from proceeding with its aggressive and barbaric wars to achieve its goals.
The issues of Gaza, the hostages, and the ceasefire are no longer subject to negotiation. Each time, as has happened for months, Netanyahu insists that the only way to achieve this is through the use of force, adding more impossible conditions.
The entire world has risen up, including in the Western countries that guarantee the security and supremacy of the occupying state, at both the official and popular levels, while the Arabs have only taken action through statements and diplomatic moves.
The statements of Netanyahu and his colleague Smotrich leave no room for doubt that the doors of war are wide open and will continue in the region, and in the region in general, as long as there is a similar US administration, which the "fascist government coalition" considers a historic opportunity.
Look at what is happening in all of Palestine, and what is happening in Lebanon and Syria, first of all, to confirm that neither internal nor external pressures on the Hebrew state can dissuade the head of the genocidal war crimes government, Netanyahu, from his resolve.
The Israeli "opposition" both disagrees with Netanyahu and agrees with him. No one dares to discuss the "two-state vision," since, in everyone's view, the establishment of a Palestinian state would be an existential contradiction to the usurping occupation entity.
Netanyahu has no scenario for establishing a Jewish state on all of Palestine other than the displacement of 7 million Palestinians.
If so, then “Greater Israel” is turning into a mere illusion, after the Gaza experience.
If the occupying state has done everything it can and has not succeeded in achieving its goals after nearly two years, how long will it take to complete its mission in the West Bank and the 1948 territories?
This is the Zionist project. The question is: When will the Arabs have their own project that protects their interests? What are the tools and means to achieve that project, if anyone is willing to undertake this task?
