UN chief calls for interim Arab-US force to control Gaza after war
2023-11-21
In which the UN secretary-general rears up on his hind legs to prove that he’s an idiot, which does not surprise anyone who has been paying even a particle of attention. For another eruption, see here,
[IsraelTimes] Guterres says United Nations
...boodling on the grand scale...
protectorate would not work, but plan for post-war international force and eventual Paleostinian Authority takeover already rejected by Netanyahu, Arabs.


A UN protectorate in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
after the current Israel-Hamas
...a regional Iranian catspaw,...
war would not solve the conflict there, the world body’s secretary-general said Monday, calling instead for a "transition period," involving Arab nations and the United States, and leading to a two-state solution.

António Guterres
...Portuguese politician and diplomat, ninth Secretary-General of the United Nations. Previously, he was the UN High Commissioner for Refugees between 2005 and 2015. He was the Prime Minister of Portugal from 1995 to 2002 and was the Secretary-General of the Socialist Party from 1992 to 2002. He served as President of the Socialist International from 1999 to 2005. In both a 2012 and 2014 poll, the Portuguese public ranked him as the best Prime Minister of the previous 30 years...
said it was "important to be able to transform this tragedy into an opportunity" — which, for him, meant moving "in a determined and irreversible way to a two-state solution."

That would mean, after the current war between Israel and Hamas Death Eaters in Gaza ends, "a strengthened Paleostinian Authority assuming responsibilities in Gaza," he said.

But the PA cannot go into Gaza backed by Israeli tanks, he added — meaning the "international community needs to look into a transition period."

"I do not think that a UN protectorate in Gaza is a solution," however, Guterres said.

Instead, he called for a "multi-stakeholder approach" that would see the US act as the "main guarantor" of Israel’s security, while Arab nations are "essential" to support Paleostinians.

“Everybody needs to come together to create the conditions for the transition, allowing for a strengthened Palestinian Authority to assume responsibilities in Gaza,” and from there to a two-state solution, he said.

The Palestinian Authority used to rule Gaza until 2007, when it was overthrown by Hamas. It continues to rule parts of the West Bank, but is widely viewed as corrupt and ineffective.

Gutteres’s plan also conflicts with Israel’s current stated plans for Gaza’s post-war future.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has not yet elaborated on who will run Gaza once Hamas is eliminated, but has said that the PA is “not fit” in its current form to govern the Strip, and has also rebuffed calls for an international force.

Additionally, Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi told the Manama Security Forum on Saturday that “no Arab troops” would be deployed in Gaza after the war.
