Palestinian sources say that Israel refuses to allow members of the Palestinian Technocrats Committee to enter the Gaza Strip. According to the sources, the committee members planned to enter the Gaza Strip this week through the Rafah crossing to take over its civilian administration by the end of the coming week. According to the sources, who are involved in the discussions of the committee members in Cairo, the experts do not know when and how they will begin their work on the ground, in light of Israel’s refusal to admit them.
Hamas announced last weekend in an official statement that this week it would hand over the management of the Gaza Strip to the members of the Committee of Experts. Aside from the fact that it is not yet clear when the committee members will be able to enter the Gaza Strip, it has not yet been clarified how the committee operates, and what budgets and resources will be allocated to it. According to Palestinian sources, Hamas has informed the mediators of their intention to hand over to the Palestinian committee, headed by former deputy minister of transportation in the Palestinian Authority, Dr. Ali Shaat. All the powers and files relating to the management of the Gaza Strip. The move is intended to ensure Hamas’ commitment to implementing the ceasefire agreement. Hamas continues to oppose its disarmament.
The structure of the organization that Trump is trying to establish is as follows:
It is headed by the Peace Council, whose role is to resolve conflicts around the world instead of the United Nations. It will operate for three years, after which any country that wants to continue the membership will pay $1 billion. Trump will head it, and it is doubtful that European countries will participate in light of Trump’s desire to take control of Greenland. Putin and Netanyahu were invited to join.
Beneath him, the general executive committee that will set the agenda of the council includes Witkoff, Blair, and Kushnir, among others, and Israeli billionaire Yakir Gabbay.
Below it is the Executive Committee for Gaza, which is responsible for a government of technocrats, including the representative of Turkey, Cutter, the Palestinian Authority, Blair, Witkoff, and Kushnir. Beneath it is the government of technocrats, headed by a representative of the Palestinian Authority, whose role is to rebuild Gaza.
There are three main ideas behind this structure:
1. To replace the UN
2. To make a large profit
3. To make Trump the ruler of the world
The ISL is rejecting this plan as a plan for robbery.
At the same time, we oppose Israel’s actions aiming to conquer and settle the entire strip. Netanyahu understands that Trump’s plan will not be able to disarm Hamas, and he plans to occupy the rest of Gaza and to try to disarm Hamas using the Zionist army. He also understands that Israel is losing American support, and he wants Israel to stop relying on the US to provide Israel with weapons. Trump’s statement that the British Jews should immigrate to the U.S is a slap in the face of Israel and the Zionist ideology.
We support Hamas refusal to be disarmed. Disarming Hamas can lead Israel and its criminal Gazan gangs to continue with the genocide and the Nakba. This happened in the refugee camps Sabra and Shatila when the PLO agreed to be disarmed and leave Lebanon.
