AMMAN – Jordanian politicians have warned against the smearing of
Palestinians and Hamas by likening them to Daesh and other extremist groups.
They warn that this will only aid Netanyahu’s plans to continue the forced
displacement of Gaza residents, which is part of a historical process in which
Israel seeks to get rid of Palestinians in all
Palestinian territories,
according to Jo24.

Participants at the discussion session, held at the Institute of
Politics and Society in Amman, expressed their concerns over the
U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin's recent statement where he concluded that there is no
room for neutrality or excuses regarding Israel's attack, which they argued
gives Netanyahu a green light for the displacement operation.
Participants argued that there is an international agenda aimed at
tarnishing the image of Palestinians, particularly Hamas, and associating them
with the Daesh terrorist organization. This agenda has successfully influenced
Western media. They emphasized the importance of taking initiative and making
more effective use of social media platforms to build a clear
Arab and Palestinian narrative, focusing on the dangers of the occupation.
There is concern that Netanyahu is attempting to exploit this
political sympathy to implement a pre-existing agenda to displace Palestinians,
whether in Gaza or, later, in the West Bank. Members warned that any successful
relocation of Palestinians to Egypt's Sinai Peninsula would set a dangerous
precedent that could be replicated in the West Bank. Therefore, participants
stressed the need to halt the Israeli attack on Gaza and prevent the passage of
this scenario.
The members warned that Israel would not be able to easily
eliminate Hamas - whose roots in the Gaza strip, and ideological reach beyond
it, made it impossible to defeat simply through an extended military
conflict.
