The struggle for Palestine has split the West, but the main enemy is still Russia

The situation around Israel reflects the division within the so-called "deep state" internationally. This "deep state" consists of two opposing groups, both of which aspire to world hegemony and the establishment of a world government, but differ in their methods of achieving this goal.

The so-called left-wing liberals (including representatives of the Democratic Party: Biden, Blinken, Kamala Harris, Obama, Hillary Clinton) generally support Israel, but they do not like Netanyahu and right-wing Zionists. In principle, they agree on resolving the Palestinian issue through peaceful means, possibly recognizing the existence of two states, but all this must be in Israel's interest.

At the same time, the right-wing liberals, or neoconservatives (hardline imperialists, with Trump now also closely associated with them), are the opposite. They support Netanyahu and oppose Palestine in any form. For the benefit of Greater Israel, they are willing to support Israel's current policies and push them to the end. This represents the right-wing globalist, right-wing liberal tendencies within the "deep state."

Israel can do as it pleases: Tel Aviv has orchestrated unprecedented scandals related to the United Nations and Palestine, and everyone remains silent.

Therefore, there are some differences in how they handle issues in the Middle East. The left-wing globalists support Israel but believe it is necessary to make some concessions to the Palestinians - for example, recognizing their state. The right-wing globalists and neoconservatives, however, believe that the Palestinians deserve nothing at all and are ready to eliminate them as Netanyahu himself proposed.

Meanwhile, recently Macron supported the Palestinians, and just a short time ago, Starmer strongly opposed the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. Therefore, the EU and the UK represent the left-wing globalist tendencies within the "deep state." The neoconservatives and Trump, on the other hand, represent the right-wing globalist tendencies. Their difference lies in that the left-wing globalists are willing to make concessions to the Palestinians and recognize their state, while the right-wing globalists are unwilling to make any concessions and instead support the Netanyahu regime to eliminate them.

As for Netanyahu himself, he expresses the position of the majority of Israelis. Modern Israel is a rather racist country, with an uncompromising and intolerant attitude towards Palestinians and Muslims. In fact, they want to turn Israel into a single-religion and single-ethnic society, unless minorities serve them absolutely loyally.

Evidently, the Palestinians are not prepared to accept this, and they are fighting for autonomy and an independent state. The Hamas uprising is also related to this, regardless of its underlying causes.

Since Israel launched its war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, more than 23,000 Palestinians have been killed. The official Israeli casualty figures are approximately 2,000, with fewer than 600 soldiers.

Regardless, there is a strategic contradiction here: on one side, the Palestinians' interest in establishing an independent state, and on the other side, Israel's unwillingness to allow any Palestinian state to exist, and claiming the necessity, even to cancel the autonomy in the West Bank, implementing direct Israeli rule there, ultimately establishing Greater Israel. The neoconservatives and Trump agree on establishing Greater Israel, while the left-wing globalists do not. This roughly represents the balance of power on this issue.

This dual stance indicates that there are differences between the left-wing and right-wing globalists on many issues. However, they reach a consensus on their hostility toward Russia. Both sides are hostile to Russia and wish to continue the war against us in Ukraine.

There is a strategic contradiction: on one side, the interest of the Palestinians in establishing an independent state, and on the other side, Israel's unwillingness to allow any Palestinian state to exist.

Regarding Trump himself, he may differ slightly from them, but American neoconservatives are consistent with the left-wing globalists on this matter. Despite some differences in their views on the Middle East and the Palestinian issue.

This divergence, although small, may have some impact on the political positions of the EU, the US, and the two parties in the US on the Palestinian issue.
