Al-Marsad Newspaper: Writer Abdullah bin Bakhit commented on the killing of 3 Israelis by an Egyptian conscript on the border with Egypt.

Egypt and Israel

Ben Bakhit said in his article entitled “What is peace with Israel?” The publication on “Okaz” newspaper: Despite the security cooperation between Egypt and Israel, an Egyptian soldier opened fire on Israeli soldiers. He killed three and wounded others. It was later revealed that the Egyptian soldier who carried out the operation was in his early twenties.

Questions and complications

He added: Although the age of the Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty exceeded forty years. Comments on social media crowned this young man a national hero from the ocean to the Gulf, an incident that raises all the questions and complications that hide when signing a peace treaty between Israel and any Arab country. No official in the two countries has spoken regarding the real reason, and there is no one in the Arab or Israeli street who does not know the reason.

Arabs and Israel

He pointed out: The question that no one wants to ask at every peace treaty between the Arabs and Israel is: What is peace with Israel? Is peace with Israel the same as peace with Iran, or with Zimbabwe, or with Korea, or with any other country in this world? Israel ignores any sign of a comprehensive peace, that is, peace with the Arab peoples, foremost of which is the Palestinian people. Israel rejects the idea of ​​peace with the Palestinians, although they are the core of the issue. Israel has not presented any single peace project in its history and has not even accepted the discussion of peace projects proposed by the Arabs.

Peace Treaty

And he continued: At a time when it is running following any peace with any Arab country unilaterally. Do you only want peace with governments? This raises a question: Is Israel a state without people, that wants peace between governments in which peoples do not participate? Peace between nations is a peace between peoples concluded by governments in order to overcome political, not existential, differences, indicating: It is clear that Israel, with the support of the United States, does not want the Arabs advancing for peace with it to involve the Palestinian people in any peace treaty with it, so that the Palestinian people turn into an internal Israeli issue as it is. The case with Indigenous Australians.

peace solution

And he added, “Many of us did not think much regarding the word peace for its obviousness. There are Arab countries that have normalized relations with Israel, established relations with it, and opened embassies. The question: Has peace come between the peoples of these countries and between the people of Israel in its obvious sense? Does this mean that a day will come when Israel will ease its burdens?” Its Spartan military cargo, and America letting it swim alone in the region? In other words, can Israel become a normal country in the region?

Arts and literature

He asked, saying: “What are the common natural factors that will make it part of the region? Does the phrase (the Middle East) have any cultural connotation that brings together peoples? What is the cultural incubator that allows harmony between the peoples of the Middle East and Israel?”, explaining: The name of the region was (The Arab world), but it was called the days of Arabism (the Arab homeland). This homeland extends from the Persian Gulf to the Atlantic Ocean. This extended region has different political entities, but it is one cultural bloc: the same language, the same religion, the same history, the same arts and literature, the same customs and traditions, the same problems and the same aspiration. The book fair in Beirut is the same as the book fair in Cairo. It is the same as the book fair in Medina, Riyadh, Kuwait, Marrakesh, Amman, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi. Same presenters, same authors.

Terrible force

And he added: “The song starts from Damascus, and the people of Iraq, Lebanon, Yemen, the Gulf and the Palestinian people rejoice at it, then Israel is forced to jump to land in Egypt and then march to the Arab peoples to the Atlantic Ocean. The religious fatwa is issued in Cairo and finds its echo in all Arab countries. This vast extension is a culture A well-established one. What I said is self-evident that everyone knows, but it leads to a question: In what capacity is Israel integrating into this region, if we exclude the terrible force that was provided to it and the unconditional American support?

American influence

And he continued: Israel realizes that peace with the Arab peoples is normalization and not natural, it will remain contradictory to fate and the nature of existence, and the Israeli leader Ariel Sharon declared this one day (the Arabs recognized our strength, but they did not recognize our right to exist). Israel wants a peace imposed by American influence with Arab governments that will enable it to move in a world with which it has no connection.

court protected

And he concluded: You can move a herd of camels and settle them in the Arctic, provided that they live in a tight reserve, severing the relationship with life outside this reserve. These camels will live as long as this protection lasts, but they must remain within the reserve until they are repatriated or transformed into penguins.
