Palestinian Cause: The world has changed, The balance of power has changed, Geography has changed…!

What is happening today is not an emergency development, but a structural shift in the approach to the Palestinian cause. The appointment of the High Commissioner for the administration of the Gaza Strip is in essence a reimposition of the Mandate on the Gaza Strip and a clear declaration that the international system no longer sees the Palestinians as worthy of their own leadership. Mandates always come back when peoples are considered politically, institutionally and administratively incompetent.

This leads to a clear conclusion: the international and regional vision is no longer centered on the empowerment of Palestinians as a sovereign state, but rather on the internationalization of the trusteeship as a realistic alternative to the two-state solution. In other words, to consider the Palestinians as unqualified to establish a state or a political entity with clear borders and real authority on the ground.

“The world has changed. The balance of power has changed. Geography has changed. Even the definitions of justice, right, and power have changed. The world today is more conflicted, faster transformed, and less indifferent. No one will bear anyone’s burden anymore.”

From Madrid, to Oslo, to the road map, to the deal of the century, to Trump’s plan for the Gaza Strip. It is as if the world is saying, after a century of conflict, to the Palestinian leadership, which has fragmented into a thousand flags and banners: You are not yet mature… And you may never mature.

What is happening today takes us back to the beginning of the story, to square one in 1918, when the British Mandate was imposed on Palestine after the defeat of the Ottoman Empire. But this time, the return is burdened with heavy losses, a renewed human tragedy, and fragmented generations that have lost their body, soul and land. Houses have been replaced by tents, and human dignity has been replaced by bodies waiting for their fate.

The narrative of the Palestinian beginning, which was told as a promise of liberation, is no longer relevant to this time.

The world has changed. The balance of power has changed. Geography has changed. Even the definitions of justice, right, and power have changed. The world today is more conflicted, faster transformed, and less indifferent. No one will bear anyone’s burden anymore.

The peace council announced by the White House includes Jewish figures and others who see Israel’s security as essential and necessary: US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Trump’s special envoy Steve Whitkoff, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner. For them, Israel’s national security is tied to the national security of the United States and Britain, their interests, and their vision for the Middle East and the world.

The formation of the Council and the appointment of the High Commissioner took place without any real Palestinian objection, and with Arab and international acceptance, reflecting a state of comprehensive political exhaustion. This reality and this is the current map of the world: a world preoccupied with a Russian-Ukrainian war, European fears of Russian expansion, and other American expansions. Cracks in the international worldview are beginning to emerge and become more apparent.

The Middle East is explosive and renewing conflicts: from a debilitated Yemen to a promising Sudan, to a collapsed Lebanon, a fragmented Syria, a worried Iraq, and a corrosive Iran. The countries of the region are burdened with economic, security, and structural crises that barely allow them to manage their internal affairs. In a Middle East with such a fracture, the Palestinian file becomes an additional burden, and there seems to be a realistic Arab and international desire to close it at any cost.
