BETRAYAL OF PALESTINIANS' RIGHT TO THEIR HOMELAND

Days after Arab and Muslim rulers met and pleaded with President Donald Trump not to allow Israel to annex the West Bank, Trump announced on Monday September 29, 2025 a proposal to end Israel's two year old on going genocidal war in Gaza.

However, United Nations human rights and legal experts warned that the US plan risks entrenching violations of international law.

Trump who recognised occupied East Jerusalem as the Israeli capital and shifted the US embassy in Israel there, was helped to gain power by the Jewish lobby which expects him to serve Israel, as his predecessors from President Harry S. Truman to Joe Biden did. Joe Biden and Trump spent 22 billion dollars worth American tax payers' money for Israel's ongoing slaughter of the Palestinans and the destruction of Gaza.

America's Arab allies including Saudi Arabia, the so called guardian of Islam and Islamic holy places, Qatar, UAE, Jordan, Turkey, Indonesia, Pakistan and Egypt endorsed Trump's Gaza Plan which is a sellout of legitimate Palestinian rights to their homeland and dignity.

The plan is perhaps the worst ever moment in the history of Arabs and Muslims. As pointed out by one columnist: "A ceasefire plan that excludes the occupied is not a peace plan. It is a colonial diktat".

Worse than before

After two years of genocide, we have ended up with a proposed settlement which is substantially worse than the situation that existed on October 6 2023. Israel has a green light to stay in Gaza and will continue to seal the border and control the amount of aid and quality of construction materials that go through.

Trump was given a legendary welcome by Saudi Arabia, United Arab emirates and Qatar during his recent visit. These countries invested billions to please him. Trump said the plan has the support of Arab and Muslim leaders, European allies and is acceptable to Israelis. Heaping praise on while exposing Arab leaders' sellout, Trump added that "Arab and Muslim" leaders have committed to "demilitarise Gaza" and "decommission" the military capabilities of Hamas.
