China, as the rising world power, could become the “go to” peace maker.
Israel and Palestine may be the test bed of this new form of global rule. Israel’s right wing Education Minister Naftali Bennett says
“Trump’s victory is an opportunity for Israel to immediately retract the notion of a Palestinian state in the center of the country, which would hurt our security and just cause. This is the position of the president-elect… The era of a Palestinian state is over.” Backing this up the Netanyahu government is passing laws to legitimize the west bank settlements.
Before celebrating the Netanyahu government’s vision of a”a greater Israel,” Mr. Bennet should look east at the red moon rising over the Temple mount.
While Trump campaigned against Nato, threatened a nuclear Japan, and demonized Muslims and Iran, Chinese leader Xi Jinping just addressef Arab League in Cairo before planned visit to Iran. Xi announced millions in aid to Palestinians and supported establishment of East Jerusalem as the capital of Palestine.
