Ex-Israeli official sees Gaza pact as step toward Palestinian state
The article suggests that developments related to the war on the Gaza Strip could eventually lead to the establishment of a Palestinian state, especially given Israel's diminishing ability to prevent this and the increasing influence of the U.S. administration, particularly the Trump administration. The author emphasizes that Palestine holds an incomplete legal status; it has acceded to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, which allows the court to treat it as a state, including issuing arrest warrants against Israeli leaders. The article also highlights Israel's policy of separating Gaza from the West Bank to enhance control and undermine the Palestinian state. However, shifts in the course of the war, changing balances of power, the possibility of forming an internationally recognized Palestinian government, and changes in Gaza's policies could contribute to creating a new reality that favors the emergence of a Palestinian state, along with a decline in Israel's influence over the region.
