To write: Emad Afaneh
The last meeting of Hamas’ political bureau in Cairo in October 2021 was confirmed. Its comprehensive political vision for the overall Palestinian future.
In this context, Ismail Haniyeh, head of Hamas’ political bureau, spoke at the political webinar ” Hamas ‘ Future Vision for the Advancement of the Palestinian National Project” held by Al-Zaytouna Center for Studies and Consultations on November 3, 2021. to display its outlines, A word in which he employed his possession of the corner of the language, In correcting the compass of politics, Haniyeh set specific goals, The speech clarified the purpose of rejecting the Oslo Accords – the second Palestinian Nakba – and affirmed the rejection of all Israeli formulas for its continuation in other forms. He even announced Hamas’ readiness to maintain the PA but only after changing its function. to become a resistance authority, Everyone participates in it from the election gate in purely Palestinian sizes.
Haniyeh’s speech, Addressing the joints of the Palestinian scene, From the authority to the disabled organization, In the context of attempts to correct the Palestinian path so that the organization will once again become an umbrella for all Palestinians.
Scrutiny of Haniyeh’s speechStressing that the Palestinian people are not looking at this stage for a state or an authority under the occupation carpets, but they want liberation, and resistance is a means and not a goal, and on the way to that, everyone must be given the opportunity to participate in the authority that manages the affairs of the people after changing its function, to become a resistance authority that supports the steadfastness of the people, not a security coordination authority representing an advanced security battalion in the Shin Bet.
Follow in Haniyeh and Hamas’ firm vision
Haniyeh drew a roadmap to correct the Palestinian political scene. To reach a resistant regime that ends the stage of “remnants of the Oslo authority”, From the gate of elections as a legitimate, necessary and militant political process, To establish a resistance authority capable of withstanding and contributing to shaping the contours of victory.
It is no secret to everyone that the Oslo Accords came at a moment of great Palestinian weakness. And caused the Palestinian cause to be plunged into a stage of political wandering, Its most prominent feature was the exclusion of our Palestinian people abroad from participating in the national cause and in the struggle and resistance.
Despite the possession of the Palestinian resistance, led by Hamas, And its armed wing, the book of Al-Shaid Ezzedine Al-Qassam, for a military missile arsenal, capable of hitting every spot in the enemy entity, However, Hamas’ awareness of the capabilities of our people in the liberation project, It pushes it to show readiness to engage in popular resistance in the West Bank that develops into an uprising against the Zionist occupation. A popular confrontation with the occupation entity that only the security coordination authority prevents its serious launch. Therefore, Haniyeh stressed the need to change the function of power to become a real national authority.
Rehabilitate the Palestinian cause and our national project at the Arab, Islamic and international levels, requires a reformulation of the function of the PA, To become a building pickaxe not a demolition in the liberation project, Hamas’ keenness to participate in power is not an end in itself. As much as it is to ensure being a resistance power not a compromise, Disengagement from the Zionist entity is translated by the vocabulary of managing internal affairs from the reality of resistance, not coexistence. Not to surrender to the occupation option, which aims to force us to declare a state under occupation based in the Gaza Strip under the slogans of resistance that tickle feelings. While we leave the occupation to unilaterally swallow and Judaize the occupied West Bank, The widest and most important arena of conflict.
The greeting that Haniyeh addressed as a leader of the resistance to our people in Jerusalem, Especially in Sheikh Jarrah who yesterday expressed an Arab Islamic position, By holding on to their homes and this land, and their refusal to settle with the occupation courts, In fact, it is a tribute to the Palestinian people’s attachment to their rights, which are not taken away under the force of fire or under the external support of the occupation.
Jerusalem where they struggle to stay, It is the compass of the national battle, We had to fight a battle with many of the means and tools we had to hold elections in, To prevent us from getting into a real predicament that brought us back to square one. However, the battle of the Sword of Jerusalem, which constituted an important shift in the conflict with the occupation, and united the Palestinian people, It rehabilitated the issue in its Arab and Islamic dimension, It constituted compensation for establishing Jerusalem as a compass for conflict and as a destination for resistance and revolution.
And Hamas’s awareness expressed by Haniyeh in his speech of the complex and difficult equations that are intended to be drawn in the region, In terms of building alliances in the region that Israel prevails with the countries with which it normalizes, It requires all Palestinians to reach a comprehensive, mature vision that carries a lot of political purity. and self-confidence to change equations, And thwart the plots.
The main contradiction as a Palestinian people is with the Zionist enemy, This imposes on everyone bridging his programs, goals and means, To serve the overarching goals of our people and our cause, On the basis of strengthening the principle of partnership in building institutions, both leadership and representative of our people, Or in the areas of governance in the West Bank and Gaza, In order to serve our ability to build positive equations in our regional and international dimension, Without doing so at the expense of Palestinian constants.
