Mawwal on Palestinian Elections Under Occupation
The article addresses the issue of Palestinian elections, focusing on the legal and organizational conditions surrounding the conduct of these elections. It clarifies that the Palestinian Authority is considered legally illegitimate to hold elections due to the ongoing Israeli occupation and the difficulty in organizing voting in areas such as Gaza and Jerusalem, where Israeli approval is required. The article points to frequent amendments to election rules and the formation of the election commission, which is controlled by the Palestinian presidency, raising doubts about the integrity and transparency of the process. It also discusses how eligibility rules for candidacy require adherence to the Oslo Accords and PLO resolutions, which threaten Palestinian unity and deepen divisions. The conclusion suggests that the electoral process is conditional and likely to fail, and that it may serve as a political appropriation that benefits the occupation, rather than achieving the goals of national unity and reform.
