Who controls Palestinian decisions
The article addresses the issue of who makes and adopts the Palestinian national decision, confirming that major political decisions are often made in deep power centers linked to the presidential institution, the military, and security agencies, rather than in official institutions such as the Legislative Council or the government. Under the Palestinian division, several factions vie for influence: the Palestine Liberation Organization, the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah, Hamas in Gaza, and external parties like Qatar, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates, amid a weak central control and overlapping external interests. The article raises a question about the existence of an independent Palestinian national decision, given the divergence among the main decision-making centers. It concludes that the Palestinian political system suffers from fragmentation and external interventions that hinder the adoption of a unified and independent decision.
