US plan fits into historical refusal to acknowledge Palestinian national rights: Analysis

Trump’s Gaza proposal is the latest Western effort that ignores Palestinian national rights while seeking to isolate the Strip from the rest of the occupied Palestinian territory, says Wadie Said, ...a law professor at the University of Colorado.

Israel and its top ally, the US, have for decades “been trying to ‘solve’ the Palestinian issue without in any way acknowledging Palestinian national rights in these lands and in these territories”, Said told Al Jazeera.

“This idea of separating Gaza has been floated before, and it’s just a repeat of many proposals that have been in existence that deny Palestinians their right to national self-determination,” he explained.
“The West Bank, the Gaza Strip, and East Jerusalem have been declared as occupied illegally by the International Court of Justice,” he added.
