Ramallah: Return to the ‘Comfortable Square’

Amman | In a long-awaited gathering that brought together the joy of the election of Joe Biden as president of the United States, Abdullah II and Mahmoud Abbas rearranged their papers in preparation to present them to Washington in less than two months. The goodwill messages were clearly communicated, either by opening up to the “new normalizers” or by the return of “security coordination” without any guarantees or even gains. Amman, like Ramallah, is interested in returning to the “comfort zone”, where the burden of the rest of the “conflict” is minimal, and on the other hand, the regional “contribution” of the new US administration to improve the image of the United States abroad after the registration of the administration. Triumph.

Amman realized early on that his situation in occupied Jerusalem, his most dangerous record, concerned new Arab players. With the UAE normalizing and making trips from Abu Dhabi to Tel Aviv publicly, as well as talking about tourist trips, the Temple Mount will be a priority tourist destination not only for Bahrain and the UAE, but it can include other Islamic countries, especially with the position of Secretary General of the “World League”. The Islamic ”, Muhammad Al-Issa, who began courting and meeting with Jewish organizations. Here, Amman will play with the rope of participation rather than abstain for at least moral gain, with the exception of preserving the Hashemite guardianship over the Temple Mount, even if it is a sham. The current timing is better for Amman as it is one step ahead of Riyadh through its rapprochement with Abu Dhabi, especially since between Saudi Arabia and the Emirates, the second tilt is tilted, which is not surrounded by “Hala Qudsi” as “the servant of the Two Holy Mosques”. Regardless of the Egyptian position during Trump’s tenure, as Cairo was closer to his administration than the other countries in the ring, Abbas and Abdullah will not do so without the “big sister” and will seek to open up to her, especially in light. of the full Egyptian alliance with Saudi Arabia.

Abbas is ready to bring his power back to the fore and forge the next stage.

Thus, Jordanian flexibility will be at its peak during the next phase, while the Kingdom will accept any exit proposed by the Biden administration. As for Abbas, he is preparing for the return of his power to the fore and seeks, through his visit, and according to sources, to form an Arab vision to deal with the new Oval Office and the shape of the relationship in consequence with Tel Aviv. Also, “Abu Mazen” could call an “international peace conference” to be held in the middle of next year. On the other hand, he wants to present a document to help Cairo and Riyadh on problematic files with the Biden administration, such as human rights issues for Egypt and the murder of Saudi Arabia by Jamal Khashoggi. As for the reconciliation file, after the Authority stalled to buy time until the results of the US elections are clear, its president will challenge the “softness” in “Hamas” under the pretext of the intransigence of the movement in the dialogues that they stayed in Istanbul, Doha and Cairo, while he returns the Gaza dossier to Cairo for treatment. Far from Qatar, and this guarantees Egypt an indispensable role in stabilizing the sector.
Right now, Biden, concerned with fixing his office, does not seem very interested in the debate in Jordan and Palestine about the origins of Rima Dudin, whom he chose as deputy director of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs. Wadudin, the Jordanian-Palestinian woman, recalls the biography of her grandfather, Mustafa Dudin, who was Minister of Social Affairs and Labor in the Wasfi al-Tal government in 1971, with the exception of his membership in the Council of “notables “of King Hussein in the same year, and his previous history as director of supplies and imports to the Gaza Strip (1949) and director of passports and travel (Gaza Strip, 1953). He was also Director of Civil Affairs for the Department of Palestine Affairs in Cairo (1961).
This biography, which was well received by Jordanians and Palestinians, was absent from it, reminding him of the grandfather’s role in the “Village League” that the occupation tried to impose as an alternative to elected municipal councils at the time, when Menachem Milson , who was the adviser for Arab affairs in the Israeli military government, granted wide political, economic and service powers to Mustafa Dudin, so that the ties would be the ruler on behalf of the enemy and a real alternative to the municipal councils and villagers who do not they were subject to Israel’s vision, and he himself agreed to keep this file in 1979.
