While it discusses economic issues in depth, it all but ignores the root cause of the problem: Hamas. Hamas is not even mentioned once, but here is how it breezily dismisses the issue:
The issue of multiple armed Palestinian factions remains challenging.
However, it is one that can be addressed, and even resolved permanently, only
if its root causes are tackled by providing a clear political prospect and a
credible process that works to establish the Palestinian State and restores the
legitimate rights of the Palestinian People to their rightful owners.
The aforementioned efforts must ultimately lead to a single and clear outcome,
which is the implementation of the two-state solution; there is no alternative
to the establishment of a Palestinian State.
A Palestinian state would not weaken Hamas - it would empower it.
It is richly ironic that nations that work so hard to defeat their own Islamists - usually, without mercy - are telling Israel that they just have to give them a state and they will disappear.
People don't remember that there were plenty of massive terrorist attacks during Oslo, at the exact same time that there was "a clear political prospect and a credible process to establish the Palestinian State." Saying that such a process will stop terror this time is insane.
I can't believe this is mere naivete. These guys hate Muslim Brotherhood style jihadists. This is an attempt to gaslight the West into thinking that a Palestinian state is the solution (really, the Trojan horse to eventually defeat Israel.)
Let's be clear: A Palestinian state would be taken over by Hamas or a similar group. It would be a terror state. It would be Gaza, just larger. Everyone knows this - including those who drafted this plan.
The plan is a kneejerk reaction to the Trump proposal to empty Gaza and take over. It adds nothing to the discussion. It is simply a rehash of the mainstream Arab position: no to allowing Gazans to emigrate to Arab countries, using "refugees" as pawns to pressure Israel, eventually creating a Palestinian state. The entire point of this plan is to avoid taking responsibility for their Palestinian brethren that they pretend to support.
The idea of Egypt and Jordan training Gaza police for law and order is the same as the 2005 "Dayton plan" of the US training PA forces to suppress Hamas - it didn't work then and it wouldn't now. The
US-trained PA security forces cannot even enter Jenin and other Islamist strongholds in the West Bank, let alone control them. Plenty of PA security forces are also terrorists. Fatah's Al Aqsa Brigades
were never disbanded.
If the plan is not serious about eliminating Hamas, it is not serious at all.
