GAZA: THE LAST CHANCE?


The United States has appealed to Hamas to accept the amendments to the peace plan prepared by the president, Joe Biden, because “it is the last opportunity to reach a permanent ceasefire and the end of the war.”


These are the words of Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, upon arriving in Cairo where the mediators (United States, Qatar and Egypt) and the two parties in conflict are negotiating; Israel and Hamas.


Hamas had accepted the American plan, but stated that the amendments presented a few days ago by Washington and Israel change in favor of the Jewish state, and that is why they cannot accept it. “They have presented us with new conditions, and we cannot accept it,” said a spokesman for the radical Palestinian movement.


This situation leads to a very tragic moment for the hostages held by Hamas, who are still alive. The bodies of six captives were located by the Jewish army, and Hamas released a video in which four other captives appear asking Netanyahu's government to once and for all sign an agreement with Hamas that allows their release.


One of the unresolved issues is Hamas's claim to control a corridor between Gaza and Egypt, which Israel has no intention of giving up.


On the other hand, Iran has stated that it will “let some time pass” before carrying out retaliation against Israel, together with the Hezbollah movement. Washington wants these reprisals not to lead to a regional conflict.


Medical sources in the Gaza Strip claim that in the last 24 hours, Israeli air strikes have caused the death of another 52 Palestinians. Israel claims, for its part, that the people who died in Rafah and Khan Yunes were not civilians but members of the “Al Qasam” brigade, in the service of Hamas.


Reality shows that Netanyahu does not want to give up control of Gaza at any price, once the war is over. This is one of the biggest points of conflict, although the United States maintains that Gaza will be run by Palestinians. These are good words, but there are no guarantees that they will become a reality.

                         لماذا نحن هنا؟ Information is an important element in the world we live in. Fake news leads us to believe the opposite of reality. In a Middle Eastern region where the bloody war in Gaza continues, it is important to report the truth; the genocide and Israeli crimes against the Palestinian people, as well as the situation in Syria. This is what we do at ARABINFOCUS. We have therefore humbly asked for donations from members of the HH Arab Royal Houses; from His Highnesses Emirs and from important Muslim personalities who have the financial means to make a donation. We have asked them for a simple donation. Only one anonymous Saudi helped us. All the others have ignored us and have not given us even  a dinar.  Why this ignorance against ARABINFOCUS? Our fight against Jewish Zionism deserved help. But a HH Crown Prince; HH sheikhs; HH emirs;  Prime ministers; all have scorned us, instea...

          IS FOOTBALL MORE IMPORTANT THAN ARABIC CULTURE? Qatar and Saudi Arabia have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in hiring top-class soccer players in Europe to elevate and give greater prestige to their national championships in this sport. Football is a global distraction and, therefore, there is nothing to criticize about these operations. It is absolutely normal and correct that the two Arab countries have made that expense. But this situation moves us to ask some questions: 1.- Soccer is more important than the values of the culture of the Arab Nation. ? 2.-Is Soccer more important than reporting and condemning Israel's criminal aggressions against the Palestinian people? 3.-Is Soccer more important than defending Islam and its values and teachings, when it is being subjected to unfair attacks from some Western countries? 4.- Is Soccer more important than explaining and defending the values of the holy book of the Quran, subject of attacks, de...

                ONE HUNDRED KILLED IN THE ATTACK ON A SCHOOL IN GAZA Genocide and war crimes continue in Gaza, although Prime Minister Netanyahu says he is willing to resume peace negotiations. In the attack on a school this Friday, 100 Palestinians died, some of whom are women and children. Israel justified the missile attack, stating that the school served as a refuge for Hamas militants, but has not presented the slightest evidence to justify the version of the Jewish armed forces. It's the same old story. Every time Israel attacks a school, a hospital or a refugee camp, it justifies it by claiming that those places were used by the military branch of Hamas. But don't look for proof because there isn't any. The school attacked with missiles was Al-Tabin, in the Daraj area, in the capital of the Palestinian enclave. The school was completely destroyed. Meanwhile, the Palestinian and Lebanese populations continue to wait for the announced attack ...
