The Palestinians reject the U.S. plan for the establishment of the state of Palestine

The refusal of the Palestinians to a proposal by the U.S. Secretary of State , Kerry , certainly can not be a surprise. The U.S. plan , in fact, provided that, within the borders of the future Palestinian state would remain for a period of fifteen years, the presence of Israeli armed forces . The proposal seems quite absurd , because it is framed in an alliance between the two countries , which have had, and still have , certainly not friendly relations and is designed so as to impair the normal principle of sovereignty that it is entitled to each state. It is not clear , then , with what intent has been drawn Washington's plan , if not impossible to formulate a proposal to be accepted, probably with the aim to please Israel and perhaps allow him to buy time for its expansion of settlements in the territories. Who comes out badly from each other is the White House, which , despite all the proclamations and the resolutions made in support of a Palestinian state , finally independent and sovereign state, denies its programs with the presentation of a program unacceptable. But then , despite disagreements with the government in Tel Aviv, Washington has never dared to , if not in words , hinder Israel , even at the political level , remaining always on the side of the Israeli government , although it was not the best partner for Obama. Get down to it , at the decisive moment , the United States not to derail an alliance that the facts must be put in front of everything, even the regional balance , which could acquire far more stable structure with the establishment , pending for years, a state for the Palestinians. The Jewish lobby , very powerful in the U.S. and the government in Tel Aviv , may have acted in concert, by applying pressure due to too much space given to the Iranians , in the negotiations for the nuclear and deeply opposed by Israel. The U.S. , however, taking refuge behind the alliance with the Israelis, too narrow their outlook and they miss out on the opportunity for a more peaceful Middle East and a key element in foreign policy. The constitution of the state of Palestine , is a staple in the complex of Obama's foreign policy and do not understand how it can get there with proposals so weak . The justifications in support of the Israeli military presence , then , can only make matters worse . Think that Palestinians can remotely believe that Tel Aviv is not on the soil of Palestine , although set in a sovereign state, and to provide protection against other enemies , they represent a huge failure on the diplomatic level , which is the one on which the negotiation takes place . This forces the American secretary of state to rework a new proposal that takes greater account of the Palestinian demands , pointing to a final resolution of all issues with the Israelis, without any defer . A solution , as to the necessity of the presence of a military force on the Palestinian territory , which would still be at the center of the fragile geopolitical balance of the region, is made ​​from the same Abbas who said he was in favor of an international force in the West Bank , it is a reasonable proposal , which represents a concession to the needs of both the U.S. and Israel. But it is from Tel Aviv that there is a stiffening of this way out, because Israel wants to continue with his troops to garrison the Palestinian territory. At the moment, therefore, does not seem to be room for negotiation and you risk to the U.S., to miss an important opportunity .
