The lesson not to be learned Israel today

2021-09-17T06:22:01.412Z


The government repeats the absurd Oslo slogans, as if we did not pay a heavy blood price • The agreement survives despite public opposition, only because of the support of the country's undemocratic institutions in it


Shortly before he died in the summer of 2001, Faisal Husseini, who held the Jerusalem portfolio in the Palestinian Authority, revealed the Oslo scam.

In an interview with Al-Arabi newspaper, he clarified that for Yasser Arafat and his people, the Oslo process was never a way to achieve peace and coexistence with Israel, but a means to destroy it "from the sea to the river."


Husseini described Oslo as a "Trojan horse" when Arafat and his men hid in the Oslo tree.

When the Oslo War broke out ten months before the interview, it was as if the terrorists had emerged from our sight.

"This is the beginning of the real work for which they got into the horse's belly," he said.


He explained that the Palestinians had deceived Israel all along.

Arafat held "peace" talks and Israel paid for the honor with compound interest.

We handed over Gaza, the Palestinian cities and villages in Judea and Samaria.

We handed over weapons.

We have gained international recognition and legitimacy.

We transferred billions of dollars each year to PLO terrorists - and we allowed the nations of the world to transfer them. And more weapons. The European Union and the CIA trained Arafat's terrorist troops. Internationally upgraded and strengthened the political campaign against Israel's right to exist.


Agreement on their own behalf


Even before that interview, it was clear to the public in the country that Oslo is the greatest strategic concept in the country's history. But despite the disillusionment, even today Israel still lives in the reality of the Oslo process. The Palestinian Authority exists, funds and incites terrorism, and is waging a political war against Israel. The "international community" still demands that Israel "make painful concessions for peace" and, together with the left in Israel, insists that a "two-state solution" is the only alternative.


For years, the left, led by Shimon Peres, mocked the general public, using the well-known saying "So what's the alternative?". A year ago we got a glimpse of an alternative. The Sovereignty Plan - backed by the United States. The Abrahamic Agreements proved to us that there is no connection between peace with the Arab world and the need to strengthen the PLO terrorist organization. The key to true peace is not strengthening the enemy. vice versa.


The key to true peace with the Arab peoples around us is Israel's military, social, economic and political power. The partners in the peace agreements from 2020 did so because of the strength of Israel. Thanks to a stubborn stand for our rights. The Lapid-Gantz-Bennett government returns the slogans of Oslo and presents them in the form of "just yesterday was born", "security for the economy". The "international community" will prevent Hamas from arming itself. "Gaza residents" will discover that Hamas is the obstacle to their prosperity and overthrow it.


Although Mahmoud Abbas, the PLO chairman, has been preventing elections for 15 years, he is the legitimate partner for peace.

He is a partner in the fight against terrorism that he spurs and finances.

We want to expand his powers.

The IDF cannot fight forever "in rounds of fighting" in Gaza. But on the other hand, thanks to the strength of the IDF, we can allow Hamas to rehabilitate its capabilities.


And besides, we have no choice.

Neither in Judea nor in Gaza. We will not have "international legitimacy." And there is no alternative to a "two-state solution."


How can it be that after all the lessons we paid for in blood, we're still in this movie?

Beginning of the answer in the name of the false peace process: Oslo.

Norwegian production, not local.

In 1993, representatives of the hostile Norwegian government invited some Israeli left-wing activists who worked at the institute attached to then-Deputy Foreign Minister Yossi Beilin to come to Oslo, to meet with senior PLO leaders. .


Although no one sent them, in Oslo Hirschfeld and Inn hosted political negotiations as Israeli representatives.

When the contacts reached a certain maturity, they told Beilin that he told Peres.

Later, when Arafat (under Israeli guidance) destroyed the talks that Rabin was having in Washington, Peres told Rabin.

Whether out of a desire to reduce the damage to his status, or out of a hope that, nevertheless, something good will come out of the anti-democratic move, Rabin reconciled after the fact with the agreement.


From the outset, the public has opposed the Oslo move.

To get approval from the Knesset for his moves, Rabin relied on the support of the Arab anti-Zionist parties, and after Shas withdrew from the coalition, he gave bureaus, cars and power to three junctioners - the party to the right of the Likud - to survive politically and pass the Oslo II agreement One, by Gonen Segev.


Rabin and Peres, together with the media and the justice system, demonized those parts of the nation that opposed the process.

The Zionists were the "enemies of peace," collaborators of Hamas and Fatah.

Rabin used the phrase "murderers of peace."

Well-reasoned opposition speeches were condemned as incitement.

The victims of Palestinian terrorism have been called "victims of peace."


I saw the scam


When Ariel Sharon ascended the throne as prime minister, he faced demonization by turning his skin.

"Things you see from here you don't see from there," Wacker said.

Ten thousand law-abiding Israelis were evacuated, and the Gaza Strip was handed over to Hamas within a year and a half.


Netanyahu preferred to ignore Oslo in the hope that the agreement would die and disappear from the power of the achievements of the political alternative he built on the basis of Israel's power, a power he promoted and developed.

Yet despite its dizzying successes, Oslo survived the Abrahamic treaties and the sovereignty plan;

Of course, Netanyahu's rule as well.

Here it comes back.


The Lapid-Gantz-Bennett government is a kind of Rabin-Peres government on steroids.

Segev and Alex Goldfarb were bought as minister and deputy ministers.

Bennett blackmailed the prime minister, as did Gideon Saar.

Like the Rabin-Peres government, the current government survives thanks to an unprecedented labeling of the media, the judiciary and the support of the political-security establishment.


And that's the point.

Oslo survives even though in every aspect it is an ongoing catastrophe for Israel, because it has been receiving the support of the country's undemocratic establishments for 28 years.

In the beginning, I witnessed a process that led the political-security and bureaucratic establishment to put reality aside, and connect to the illusion of Oslo's peace.

At the height of the process, in 1996-1994, as a captain in the Office of the Coordinator of Government Operations in Yesha, I served as the coordinator of peace talks. I sat in the negotiating rooms in Cairo, Taba, and Eilat.


The deception was clear. Every two weeks, I wrote and distributed reports to all relevant parties detailing how the Palestinians came out of the glorious negotiating rooms and violated every promise they made in the talks. I documented the deception, the lie. And I saw how one by one, the commanders and senior officials who understood the danger and were exposed to the truth - retired at best, or aligned themselves with the new "narrative" and ignored the facts. The Oslo process will not be buried by the public at the polls, although voting at the polls is a condition for this. We will succeed in burying Oslo only after we have caused the unelected systems to abandon it and return to Zionism - and the truth.
