Mladinov and the Peace Council: Political Cover for Netanyahu's Crimes

An opinion piece in Palestine Online accuses Mladinov and the Peace Council of providing political cover for Netanyahu's crimes, noting the flexibility of Palestinian factions and Netanyahu's rejection of understandings and resumption of assassinations, amid a lack of real international pressure.

The editorial discusses the role of Nikolay Mladinov and the Peace Council in Gaza, accusing them of providing political cover for the crimes of the Israeli occupation and its Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The article notes that Palestinian factions showed flexibility and responded positively to the understandings paper, aiming to stop the genocide war, protect the people, and pave the way for relief and reconstruction. However, Netanyahu rejected the understandings, set new conditions, and tried to evade commitments, without a firm American stance or real pressure from the Peace Council or Mladinov. The article criticizes the resumption of assassinations and targeted killings, asserting that the occupation continues bombing, delaying withdrawal, and controlling aid without paying any price. It says the Palestinian citizen in Gaza has not felt any real change, and that the United States is quick to accuse Palestinians while being lenient with Netanyahu. The article concludes that the responsibility of Mladinov and the Peace Council is either to protect the agreement and pressure the violating party, or to admit that they have become a political cover for the occupation's management of the war on its own terms.
