The United States, Israel and the United Arab Emirates are working towards the creation of a national committee of Palestinian leaders and business figures that will administer Gaza once the war ends, sources have told Middle East Eye.

According to several sources who spoke to MEE on condition of anonymity, the national committee would function as the main representative of all Palestinian factions, but in reality, all of its members would be loyal to exiled former Fatah leader and Palestinian strongman Mohammed Dahlan, who could eventually be installed as successor to Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas.

The sources, who requested anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the topic, said international and regional states, including neighbouring Egypt and Jordan, were piling pressure on the 88-year-old Abbas to accept the plan.

    So they want to install a puppet “ruling” over the rubble to help finish the handover to the genocidal maniacs.

    What if there was just an internationally recognized state with internationally recognized borders and the right to govern and defend itself? Wouldn’t that just be kooky?

      Self determination for Palestinians? Are there any adult Palestinians left to govern such a wild idea?

      Well, that depends. If it’s a board of puppets to continue Israeli rule, then no. If it’s a decently representative cross section of Palestinians who have a mandate to transition to independent statehood and democratic rule, then yes. But I really doubt it’ll be the second one.
