Peloni: The determination by the US that the success of Trump’s deal is more important than enforcing the terms of the deal adds a troublesome context to a deal which was troubling in its original form. As time passes, the deal has become more and more estranged from its original text, and now includes Hamas becoming part of the solution for what came about as a direct consequence of Hamas being considered part of the solution twenty years ago. Notably, the problem is not merely with Hamas, but with the Islamist ideology which rejects any toleration of Israel, and notably, this ideology is now present on Trump’s Board of Peace, within the Gaza technocratic PA govt, and on the ground with Hamas being considered to be included in the new policing authority in Gaza. As with Oslo, when the focus remains upon having some deal rather than being upon dealing with the underlying causes of the conflict, ie the Islamists in region being treated as peace partners, there can be little hope for any resulting peace.
