You must change the mentality of the Palestinians
Tony Blair had started his new job as special envoy of the Quartet – the United States, Russia, the European Union and the United Nations – even before he had been appointed.
He stated mantra of the Quartet to the House of Commons in his speech output:
"The only way to bring stability and peace to the Middle East is a two-state solution, which means a state of Israel that is secure and confident in their safety and a Palestinian state is viable not only in terms of its territory but in terms of its institutions and the government. "
Are you really Seriously – the "only way"? No other options at all? What a doomsday forecast.
After 14 years of attempts and failures miserably to create a State between Israel and Jordan seems that it is poor policy objective will be at least until Mr. Blair is replaced by another person eminent position of a former U.S. President, the Prime Minister or head of the World Bank.
George Bush or Condoleezza Rice is probably like a job within two years.
If Mr Blair is serious in his pronouncement and believes that "two-state solution is the only way, then it must first to be an immediate change of attitude of the Palestinians before he starts any new negotiations to achieve that goal.
You will need the support of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. His advisor, the chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said Abbas told AFP that Mr Blair had given an assurance that he will work with Mr Blair, to reach a peaceful solution based on two states.
Abbas – the leader of the PLO and the Palestinian Authority – immediately convene a Palestinian National Council meeting to amend or repeal the offensive and offensive following provisions of the Charter of the PLO – which totally contradict the "solution of two States "for the Quartet is so inextricably linked and a mockery of any peace process" to be held by Mr. Blair:
Article 1: "Palestine is the homeland of the Arab Palestinian people."
This should be amended to state the country is also the Jewish people. What does a two-state solution mean otherwise?
Article 2: Palestine with the boundaries it had during the British Mandate is an indivisible territorial unit. "
British Mandate of Palestine covers Jordan, Israel, the West Bank and Gaza. This clause should be repealed. It is a total negation of the state solution "two."
Article 9: Armed struggle is the only way to liberate Palestine "
If this is allowed to stand, the Quartet and Blair may be as well go and fly kites now.
Article 10: "The action command is the core of the liberation war Palestinian people "
How does this kind of official approval gel conduct a peace process?
Article 15: "The liberation of Palestine … aims at the elimination of Zionism in Palestine"
This is totally incompatible with state solution "two" and must be repealed now.
Article 19: "The partition of Palestine in 1947 and the establishment of the state of Israel are entirely illegal, regardless of the passage of time "
How does this permit a "two states "solution to be negotiated?
Article 20: "The Balfour Declaration, the Mandate for Palestine and everything that has been based on them are considered null and void. "
Total disregard for international law and the rule of law, including Resolution 242 of the Security Council have no place in negotiations being conducted by the Quartet. If Mr Blair wants his authority to be respected and treated seriously, this clause must disappear.
"Claims of historical or religious ties of Jews with Palestine are incompatible with the facts of history .. "
Offensive – not only for Jews – but for Christians too. These ideas need to be deleted.
"Judaism, being a religion, not an independent nationality. Nor do Jews constitute a single nation with an identity;
Let this position makes the two-state solution impossible to attain.
Article 22: Shows a state racist and anti-Semitic attitude of mind and totally contrary to any peaceful settlement must be completely erased.
It takes a majority two-thirds of all members of the Palestinian National Council in a special session convened for that purpose to amend the previous articles.
In 2003, the Council had 669 members, 88 of the Palestinian Legislative Council, 98 representing the Arabs in the West Bank and Gaza and 483 on behalf of the Palestinian diaspora
(Source: Wikipedia).
Such numbers now represent a fair and representative cross-section of movers and shakers of the Palestinian public. Measures taken by them to amend these articles offensive would send a powerful message to voters that the day of hating Jews, armed struggle, resistance and terror are over.
This meeting can be called in 60 days to see if members of the Council is really serious in wanting to end the conflict by adopting innovative such and historic decisions.
There would be those who would ignore the change of direction and continue to participate in terror. They should be treated as ruthless and more effectively as possible.
Oslo and everything that has followed has not had any chance of success since this quantum leap in thinking is not required before any talks was carried out. A handshake on the lawn of the White House was not enough.
The farce that Mr Blair can play games of peace while the body policy can play war games and participate in the pathological hatred of his "partner for peace" must end.
If Mr Blair does not press for this Palestinian National Council meeting, then your mission – like many of those before him – only have a certain outcome – a lot of flyer points often, lots of photo opportunities, and a couple of kilos extra weight placed on the luxurious banquet held in his honor.
No changes are allowed now to the Charter PLO = no new negotiations, no State.
The equation for advancing the "two state solution" really is as simple as that.
