Answer to Question
What is to be Expected from the Negotiations Regarding the Genocide in Gaza?
(Translated)

Question:

It has been more than ten months since the Jews’ aggression on Gaza, and their massacres continue in a witnessed war of genocide, while negotiations are being held and agreements are being concluded to stop it, and they reject them, even refusing to abandon the Salah al-Din axis (Philadelphi Corridor), which Egypt considers a red line, as Al-Arabiya reported on September 3, 2024.

The Biden administration is sponsoring these massacres as it is sponsoring these negotiations, promoting the idea that a solution comes through negotiations at the time the massacres persist! What is expected from these negotiations regarding the genocide? What is America’s role in supporting this aggression? Is America serious about its announced two-state solution? How can this aggression be stopped and Palestine be fully restored to its people as it was? Apologies for the lengthy question.

Answer:

To clarify the answers to the above questions, we will review the following points:

First: The negotiations regarding the genocide and their outcomes, and America’s role in them:

1- In our Question and Answer issued on 22 March 2024, we noted, “Its war was a war of genocide in the truest sense of the word. It was encouraged to do so by the support of the West, both the American and European sides, and their followers. Western leaders flocked to visit the entity to express absolute support for the Jewish entity in the war of genocide it is waging on Gaza. It was also encouraged by the silence of the regimes in the Arab and Islamic countries. Instead of mobilizing the armies to support the people of Gaza, some of them condemned the mujahideen attack and continued their relations with the Jewish entity as if nothing had happened, and the normalizing countries, old and new, continued their normalization with the enemy, and did not sever ties and abandon the normalization betrayal. They did not cancel the treaties and agreements with the Jewish entity, such as Camp David with the Egyptian regime, Wadi Araba with the Jordanian regime, and others. That is, they did not ensure even the minimum state of war.”

Thus, Netanyahu dared to commit further atrocities. On 1 April, 2024, he launched an airstrike on the consulate building in the Iranian embassy complex in Damascus. Not stopping there, the Jewish entity sought to humiliate Iran and its allies further. On the evening of 30th July, it conducted an airstrike in Lebanon’s capital, Beirut, targeting a senior Hezbollah leader, Fuad Shukr. The following day, on July 31st, the Jewish entity carried out an assassination operation in the heart of Iran’s capital Tehran, targeting Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh. This happened without being met with a violent reaction that made the Jewish entity forget the whispers of Satan!

2- America then began to launch initiatives and its officials undertook visits to prevent rulers in Muslim countries, especially those neighboring Palestine, from mobilizing their armies to the nusrah (support) of Gaza. This was to facilitate the continuation of massacres committed by the Jewish entity against the people of Palestine. For instance, President Biden’s futile initiative on 31 May 2024, and the U.S. sponsored UN Security Council resolution on 10 June, 2024. America gathered parties for negotiations, adjustments, and changes in trips coming and going, only to distract the Ruwaibidah (incompetent negligent) rulers in Muslim countries from the nusrah of Gaza, under the pretext of avoiding an expansion of the war, whilst the massacres continued before their eyes. Simultaneously, the U.S. continued to support the aggression of the Jewish entity unequivocally, justifying its massacres and providing it with all types of weapons, both previously and subsequently. On 13 August 2024, the U.S. announced its approval of a lethal arms deal worth approximately $20 billion. The Prime Minister of the Jewish entity, Netanyahu, perceived this as a victory, considering it an absolute endorsement of his rigid stance and believing that the U.S. would not halt its support or arms shipments.

3- This indeed happened: President Biden sent his Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, on a ninth tour since the beginning of the Jewish aggression against Gaza. Blinken visited Egypt and, the following day, 19 August, 2024, met with Jewish Prime Minister Netanyahu. He deceitfully claimed on 20 August 2024 in his remarks to the press in Doha, Qatar, (“one of them is very clear that the United States does not accept any long-term occupation of Gaza by ‘Israel’.” It is a vague statement with no clear definition of what constitutes a “long term.” Blinken continued with his deception, stating, “‘Israel’ has now accepted that proposal – I heard that directly from Prime Minister Netanyahu yesterday – and we hope and expect that Hamas will do the same.  So, that’s a process that’s ongoing at the same time…  We’re engaged every single day with Israel, and our Qatari and Egyptian partners are engaged with Hamas, and over the coming days we are going to do everything possible to, one, get Hamas on board with the bridging proposal.” (whitehouse.gov; Reuters, 19/08/2024)) The New York Times reported on 20 August 2024, citing officials familiar with the negotiations, that the new American proposal allows the ‘Israeli’ forces to continue patrolling part of the Philadelphi Corridor along the Gaza-Egypt border.

4- The White House reported that President Biden had a phone call
with Netanyahu on the evening of 21 August, 2024. (During the call, “President Biden spoke today with Prime Minister Netanyahu of ‘Israel.’ The President and the Prime Minister discussed active and ongoing U.S. efforts to support ‘Israel’s’ defense against all threats from Iran, including its proxy terrorist groups Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis, to include ongoing defensive U.S. military deployments. The President stressed the urgency of bringing the ceasefire and hostage release deal to closure and discussed upcoming talks in Cairo to remove any remaining obstacles.” (whitehouse.gov; Monte Carlo 22/08/2024)). An American official indicated before the call that Biden was expected to pressure Netanyahu to ease the new demand for retaining Jewish forces in the Philadelphi Corridor on the Egypt-Gaza border. Netanyahu refuses to withdraw from this corridor, also known as the Salah al-Din Corridor, which is about 14 kilometers long and approximately 100 meters wide in some sections. It stretches along Gaza’s border with Egypt, which views the Jewish control of the corridor as a violation of the infamous Camp David Accords between the two countries, brokered by the U.S. in 1979. Egypt has called for the Jewish entity to withdraw from the corridor, which it occupied this past May. This position by America made its spoiled child, Netanyahu, realize that America is maneuvering in words without actions. Otherwise, the United States has enormous influence over the Jewish entity, as this entity depends on American economic and military aid and equipment. If it were serious in pressuring it, the Jewish entity would respond without action.

5- Negotiations began in Cairo on 24 August 2024, attended by CIA Director William Burns, the Prime Minister of Qatar, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, the Qatari Foreign Minister, and a delegation from the Jewish entity alongside the host Egyptian delegation with a Hamas delegation present but without direct participation. The official delegations left Cairo on 25 August 2024, without any agreement due to Netanyahu’s obstinacy and his refusal to withdraw from the Salah al-Din Corridor. An Anadolu Agency report on 25 August 25, 2024, quoted a high-ranking Hamas official, who preferred to remain anonymous, stating: “Hamas is committed to the ceasefire proposal announced by President Biden and endorsed by the UN Security Council,” and confirmed “Hamas’s readiness to implement the issues agreed upon on 2 July.” However, Netanyahu is delaying any agreement until he sees the results of the upcoming U.S. presidential election. He is in communication with the Republican counterpart, who are outdoing the Biden administration and Democrats in their unwavering support for Netanyahu and the Jewish entity. Netanyahu met with Trump on 26 July 2024, during Trump’s visit to Washington, receiving full support from him and the Republicans in Congress. Trump and his supporters applauded Netanyahu’s 53-minute speech, with Netanyahu betting on Trump’s return to the presidency, who promised full support and had abandoned the two-state solution. Trump is expected to instruct the Saudi regime to normalize relations with the Jewish entity, prompting other regimes to follow suit. Consequently, Netanyahu is likely to continue his bets until the results of the U.S. elections are known.

6- Netanyahu’s delay and rigidity in his demands until the outcome of the U.S. elections are confirmed.
They are underscored by his statements at a televised press conference, as reported by Al-Arabiya on 3 September 2024. Netanyahu declared four goals “to destroy Hamas, to bring back all of our hostages, to ensure that Gaza will no longer present a threat to ‘Israel,’ and to safely return the residents of the northern border.” He added that, “three of those war goals go through one place: the Philadelphi Corridor.” He indicated that the corridor is “Hamas’s pipeline for oxygen and rearmament,” and continued, that’s why the ‘Israelis’ “must control it.”

Secondly: Is America serious about the two-state solution?

1- America’s proposed two-state solution, which it has promoted by gathering its allies among the rulers of Muslims, is nothing more than a deceitful manipulation of terms. It does not offer a real state for the Palestinian people. Instead it is more akin to autonomous governance or something even less. US President Joe Biden stated in remarks to journalists – last Friday - that there are various models for a two-state solution, pointing out that several countries in the United Nations do not have their own armed forces. (Al Jazeera, 4 January 2024). This implies that Biden is referring to a model of statehood without armed forces! As for an actual sovereign state as recognized for other countries, the Jewish entity rejects it. On 18 July 2024, Al Jazeera reported that the ‘Israeli’ Knesset adopted a decision rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state for the first time in the assembly’s history. They are aware that the U.S. will not abandon them, as the Jewish entity is a creation of the U.S. and serves as its forward military base in the heart of the Muslim world to combat Islam and Muslims. US President Biden personally sympathizes with them, considering himself a Zionist with religious beliefs driving him to defend the Jewish entity. Moreover, his Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, a significant figure in the administration, has openly stated that he defends the Jewish entity due to his Jewish identity before his role as Secretary of State. Even Vice President Kamala Harris, a presidential candidate, introduced her husband as Jewish in a meeting with Jewish leaders, to demonstrate the extent of the administration’s support for the Jewish entity and the Jewish community. She is expected to continue this policy of support if she assumes office. If Trump succeeds, he will compete with the Democrats in his support for the Jews and the Jewish entity. Consequently, the Jewish entity relies on this extensive support and persists in its transgressions and crimes.

2- Another important aspect that needs clarification regarding the two-state solution is the following:

a- It is an established fact that Palestine is a blessed land, an Islamic land, the land of Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa which Allah blessed. Allah (swt) said,

((سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي أَسْرَى بِعَبْدِهِ لَيْلاً مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْأَقْصَى الَّذِي بَارَكْنَا حَوْلَهُ))

“Glory be to Him who took His servant by night from Al-Masjid Al-Haram to Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa, whose surroundings We have blessed.” [TMQ Surah Al-Israa 17-1]. The two-state solution called for by those rulers is a betrayal of Allah (swt), His Messenger (saw), and the believers. The land of Islam does not accept division between its people and its enemies. It is not acceptable for the Jews to have any authority in it, and the two-state solution has no place. Instead, just as Umar Al-Faruq (ra) conquered it, the Khulafa’a Rashidoon (rightly guided caliphs) safeguarded it, Salahudin liberated it, and Abdul Hamid II protected it from the Jews, so it will return through the efforts of Allah’s sincere soldiers.

b- This is the Islamic ruling (Hukm Shari’) on the two-state solution. Thus, even if this solution means giving the Palestinians an independent state in part of Palestine on the 1967 borders, which is about 20% of Palestine, and giving up 80% of it, it is, as we said, a major sin and a betrayal of Allah (swt), His Messenger (saw), and the believers. So how about when what is being offered is nominal self-rule, or less?! It is a betrayal beyond betrayal. It is a major crime, for which its perpetrator will be disgraced, humiliated, and dishonored in this world and severely punished in the Hereafter… Allah (swt) said,

((سَيُصِيبُ الَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا صَغَارٌ عِنْدَ اللهِ وَعَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌ بِمَا كَانُوا يَمْكُرُونَ))

“Those who have committed crimes will be afflicted with humiliation in the sight of Allah and a severe punishment for what they used to plot.” [TMQ Surah Al-An’am 6:124].

Third: How can this aggression be ended and Palestine be fully restored to its people?

1- This is a clear matter in Islam. If the kuffar attack any Muslim country, occupy it, and expel its people from it, then it is obligatory to fight the enemy and eliminate him with a fierce fight that displaces those behind him, and returns the country to its people as a complete Islamic country, without any deficiency. Allah (swt) says,

((وَاقْتُلُوهُمْ حَيْثُ ثَقِفْتُمُوهُمْ وَأَخْرِجُوهُمْ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَخْرَجُوكُمْ))

“Kill them wherever you come upon them and drive them out of the places from which they have driven you out.” [TMQ Surah Al-Baqarah 2:191], and He (swt) says,

((فَإِمَّا تَثْقَفَنَّهُمْ فِي الْحَرْبِ فَشَرِّدْ بِهِمْ مَنْ خَلْفَهُمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَذَّكَّرُون))

“If you ever encounter them in battle, make a fearsome example of them, so perhaps those who would follow them may be deterred.” [TMQ Surah Al-Anfal 8:57]. Instead, even if an attack is made on any Muslim country without occupying it, the aggression must be repelled,

((فَمَنِ اعْتَدَى عَلَيْكُمْ فَاعْتَدُوا عَلَيْهِ بِمِثْلِ مَا اعْتَدَى عَلَيْكُمْ وَاتَّقُوا اللهَ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللهَ مَعَ الْمُتَّقِينَ))

“So, if anyone attacks you, retaliate in the same manner. But be mindful of Allah, and know that Allah is with those mindful of Him.” [TMQ Surah Al-Baqarah 2:194]. So returning the occupied Muslim land and repelling the aggression, all of that is not disputed by two rational people, as it is clearly explained in the Book of Allah (swt) the Sunnah of His Messenger (saw) and the Unanimous Consensus (Ijamaa) of his Companions (ra). Then the Jewish entity will not be able to stand on its own. It is not capable of fighting, except with a rope from the people, as Allah (swt) Al-Qawwi, Al-Aziz said,

((ضُرِبَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الذِّلَّةُ أَيْنَ مَا ثُقِفُوا إِلَّا بِحَبْل مِنَ اللهِ وَحَبْلٍ مِنَ النَّاس))

“They will be stricken with disgrace wherever they go, unless they are protected by a rope with Allah or a rope from the people.” [TMQ Surah Aali Imran 3:112]. The Jews have cut off the rope of Allah (swt), and what remains for them is the rope of the people from America and Europe, and their agents from the traitors of the rulers in the lands of the Muslims, who do not move a finger in the face of the brutal aggression of the Jews. Indeed, the best of them is the one who stops counting the martyrs and the wounded!

2- The Jewish entity is not a people of fighting and victory.
They are as Allah (swt) said,

((لَنْ يَضُرُّوكُمْ إِلَّا أَذًى وَإِنْ يُقَاتِلُوكُمْ يُوَلُّوكُمُ الْأَدْبَارَ ثُمَّ لَا يُنْصَرُونَ))

“They can never inflict harm on you, except a little annoyance. But if they meet you in battle, they will flee and they will have no helpers.” [TMQ Surah Aali Imran 3:111]. As you can see, believing youths are fighting them with fewer numbers and equipment than the Jewish entity. Yet this entity has not achieved victory until today. So how would it be if the Muslim armies moved, and not even all the Muslim armies, but only those surrounding Palestine, or even part of them, then the Jewish entity will become a thing of the past. However the problem is in the countries existing in the Muslim lands these days, as their rulers are loyal to the infidel (kufr) colonizers, the enemies of Islam and Muslims. They see and hear the Jewish occupation of Palestine and their brutal crimes and various massacres. Yet it is as if they do not see or hear. Allah (swt) said,

((صُمٌّ بُكْمٌ عُمْيٌ فَهُمْ لَا يَرْجِعُونَ))

“They are willfully deaf, dumb, and blind, so they will never return to the Right Path.” [TMQ Surah Al-Baqarah 2:18]. The Muslims’ calamity lies in their rulers. The rulers of Muslims have prevented the armies from giving victory (nusrah) to their brothers and sisters in Gaza until today. The number of martyrs has reached about 41,000 and the wounded have reached about 95,000. Yet the rulers are watching what is happening, and the best of them is in the way of those who count the martyrs under the name of the dead. Then they count the wounded as if they were a neutral party, or even closer to the Jews!

Fourthly: I conclude with two points as a reminder for those who have a heart or who listen attentively:

1- We said in the Question and Answer dated 22 March 2024https://www.hizb-ut-tahrir.info/en/index.php/qestions/political-questions/25900.html, “It is known that the British Foreign Minister’s Balfour Declaration, which was included in his letter dated November 2, 1917 to Lord Rothschild, included the British government’s support for the establishment of a national homeland for the Jews in Palestine. This promise was in the last days of the defeat of the Ottoman Caliphate (Uthmani Khilafah) in World War I due to treason by some Arab and Turkish men… Years prior, Herzl, the representative of the Zionist Societies supported by Britain, had submitted a request on May 18, 1901 to the Ottoman Caliph, trying at that time to exploit the financial crisis that the Ottoman Caliphate was suffering from by offering huge sums of money to fill the Khilafah’s deficit in exchange for granting them land in Palestine, but the answer of Caliph Abdul Hamid in response to Herzl was a strong and wise answer: “I cannot give up a single inch of the land of Palestine, for it is not my property, but rather the property of the Islamic Ummah. My people fought for this land and watered it with their blood. Let the Jews keep their millions, and if the Khilafah (Caliphate) is torn apart one day, then they can take Palestine without a price, but while I am alive, that will not happen…” The Caliph had vision, insight, and foresight. He was sincere in his outlook. After the demolition of the Khilafah (Caliphate), Palestine was given to the Jews for free! Thus began the story of the usurping of Palestine and the displacement and killing of its people, and what Caliph Abd al-Hamid had expected, may Allah have mercy on him, materialized. And so the abolition of the Caliphate (1342 AH - 1924 CE) took place, which was led by the West, led by Britain at the time, with traitors from the Arabs and Turks. This abolition was the actual introduction to the creation of the monstrous Jewish entity in Palestine.”

2- Today, with the agent rulers in Muslim countries marching behind the kuffar colonialists and with their betrayal of Palestine, the land of Islam, the land of Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa, whose surroundings Allah (swt) has blessed… these lowly Ruwaibadah ones will disappear, and the Islamic state, the Khilafah Rashidah (Rightly-Guided Caliphate), will return, Allah willing, and fighting the Jews and eradicating their occupation will happen, Allah willing, as Muhammad (saw), as-Sadiq al-Ameen (the truthful, the trusted one), said in Musnad Ahmad on the authority of Hudhayfah,

«ثُمَّ تَكُونُ خِلَافَةً عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ النُّبُوَّة»“...then there will be a Khilafah (Caliphate) on the method of the Prophethood” Al-Bukhari narrated on the authority of Abdullah bin Umar (ra) who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (saw) say,

«تُقَاتِلُكُمُ الْيَهُودُ فَتُسَلَّطُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ» “The Jews will fight you, and you will prevail over them.”
Muslim also narrated it with the wording on the authority of Ibn Umar on the authority of the Prophet (saw) who said,

َ«تُقَاتِلُنَّ الْيَهُودَ فَلَتَقْتُلُنَّهُم» “You will certainly fight the Jews and kill them.” Then the earth will shine with the victory of Allah (swt). Allah (swt) said,

((وَيَوْمَئِذٍ يَفْرَحُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ * بِنَصْرِ اللهِ يَنْصُرُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ))

“And on that Day the believers will rejoice * In the victory of Allah. He gives victory to whom He wills, and He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.” [TMQ Surah Ar-Rum 30:4-5].
