The Chinese presence in the world in general, and the Middle East region in particular, has become more of an international need than a Chinese need, given the strength, status, and acceptance that China enjoys among the countries of the region.


More failure, confusion, and loss before international public opinion is the outcome of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, which has become a nightmare that threatens not only the future of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, but perhaps the entire future of “Israel,” and the political future of President Joe Biden, which opinion polls are now confirming. His defeat in the upcoming elections, in the interest of Republican candidate Trump.

More than eighty days have passed and the “Invincible Army” has not been able to achieve any real military victory over the Hamas movement, and all it has done is added to its criminal record against children and women.

The intensity of criticism of the performance of the Netanyahu government began to escalate within "Israel", and the disintegration of the war government became clear, which caused great embarrassment to "Israel" in front of the entire world.

International public opinion (officially and popularly) showed the isolation of “Israel”, which is no longer supported except by the United States of America and some small countries whose names we have not heard before.

American support for “Israel” no longer stems from a real American interest and desire, but rather stems from a state of emergency for any presidential candidate who seeks to obtain the support of the Zionist lobby, or to avoid its hostility, at the very least.

The scene has become complex, and the development and expansion of the war is a possibility at any moment, especially since the Middle East is a region capable of exploding at any moment, given its strategic importance, and the nature and size of foreign interventions in it.

International division and the absence of the United Nations

The war on Gaza demonstrated the extent of the division in international positions, especially among the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, which now reflects the extent of the “political dysfunction” of the United Nations.

The failure of the United Nations is a natural result of the change in the size and balance of international powers today, which are different from what they were in the post-World War II world, when the United Nations was formed at that time.

The war in Ukraine was the beginning of the end for this international organization, as it cemented divisions and alignments between Russia and China on the one hand, and the United States of America, France, and Britain on the other hand.

The majority of the countries of the world were supportive of Russia and China, but some countries were not able to express their true positions, given the amount of American pressure on them, but those pressures began to ease due to the decline in the size, role, and international status of America.

The decline in the American role, status, and effectiveness does not mean that America is no longer the greatest power in the world to this day, but it certainly means that this power is continuously declining, as America today is no longer what it was in 1991.

Likewise, Russia today is no longer what it was in the past three decades. Russia’s victory in Ukraine has become a fact that cannot be ignored, and its presence in the Middle East region has become the strongest today after it reached the warm waters of the Eastern Mediterranean region.

As for China, it is certainly no longer a contented country, and its surplus power has become a reality that reflects a Chinese desire to engage more in international affairs, not only on the economic level, but also on the political, and perhaps military, level.

The Chinese presence in the world in general, and the Middle East region in particular, has become more of an international need than a Chinese need, given the strength, status, and acceptance that China enjoys among the countries of the region.

Certainly, the Chinese presence is not to the liking of the United States and other European countries, but it has become a reality that cannot be ignored, which confirms the failure of the “China containment strategy” proposed by the Trump and Biden administrations.

American, Western and Israeli criticism of Beijing

The principled stances of Chinese foreign policy and its non-alignment with one party or another have made it the focus of criticism on the part of its enemies, and understanding, which may be accompanied by some reproach, on the part of its friends.

Hence, the Chinese position regarding the war in Ukraine was subjected to severe criticism from the United States and Western countries, but it was understood and accepted by Moscow, whose relations with China developed significantly.

At the start of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, the Chinese position was balanced, with regard to supporting the truth and the necessity of its return to its owners, so that Beijing announced its position regarding what is happening in Gaza, as a result of “the historical injustice to which the Palestinian people were subjected.”

This position received severe criticism from Israel, the United States, and Western countries in general, but it was respected by the Arab countries that understand the firm and principled Chinese position that rejects the occupation, in all its forms and manifestations.

Therefore, Beijing was the first stop to which representatives of Arab and Islamic countries turned in their quest to stop the destructive war waged by "Israel" on the Gaza Strip.

As for the Zionist entity, it demanded that Beijing take a clear position condemning what the Hamas movement did, but that was not accepted by the Chinese side. On the contrary, perhaps quite the opposite, there were positions taken by Beijing that highlighted its support for the Palestinian cause and its rejection of the barbaric war carried out by “Israel.” ".
Among these positions is what the Zionist media reported about Beijing imposing complications and restrictions that prevent the export of some advanced technological products to “Israel.”

Despite these positions, the Zionist occupation government realizes the importance of China and its growing role in the Middle East region. Therefore, it was careful not to cut off channels of communication with it, despite its clear criticism of the Chinese position regarding the events taking place in the region.

The internal pressure on Netanyahu from the families of prisoners held by the Hamas movement made him turn to Beijing and seek its help in releasing the prisoner held by Hamas, Noa Argamani, under the pretext that her mother is Chinese and suffers from cancer.

In his speech, which he delivered before the Knesset last Monday, Netanyahu spoke about the efforts he is making to release the Zionist prisoners held by the Hamas movement, and indicated that he asked the Chinese ambassador to “Israel” (Tsai Run) to convey a direct message from the Zionist government to the Chinese President. Xi Jinping asks him to intervene to release prisoner Noa, since her mother is Chinese. Netanyahu said, "The Chinese ambassador assured me that the message had already been conveyed."

The mother of the prisoner, Noa, tried to address the Chinese people and the Chinese government to stand by her, but she was subjected to widespread criticism by Chinese activists on social networking sites, because she abandoned her affiliation to her homeland (China) and claimed that she was Jewish, so that she could reside in “Israel.” When she was studying there.

The need for China in the coming days will be a necessity not only for the Arabs and Palestinians, but even for America and “Israel,” especially since China is the only country capable of performing the mediation role to find a solution to the Arab-Zionist conflict.

Despite the Israeli dissatisfaction with Beijing’s positions, the government of the Zionist entity is well aware of the importance of dealing with China, which today has become the power most likely to sit at the top of the international pyramid, and that it is only a matter of time, especially since the Zionists are well aware of the importance of cooperation and coordination with the power. The largest in the world, and they are good at jumping ropes and moving in offering allegiances from one country to another, in service of their great colonial project.

When Britain was the greatest power in the world, the Zionists were able to obtain from it a promise to establish their alleged entity.

But Zionist loyalty transferred very quickly to the United States of America when it became the greatest power after World War II, which provided the Zionist entity with absolute support that brought “Israel” to where it is today.

Therefore, it is not unlikely that the Zionists will seek to get closer to China if they feel that Beijing is the closest to being the capital of international decision-making in the world, especially in light of the data that indicate the inevitability of a decline in the American role.

All of these data give Beijing cards that enable it to play a mediation role to find a solution to the Palestinian issue.

China has undertaken several initiatives to find a solution to the Palestinian issue on the basis of the "two-state solution", as it is the minimum acceptable to the Palestinians.

But that vision clashed with American positions during the Trump and Biden administrations, as Trump believed in the deal of the century and the necessity of imposing the logic of concessions on the Palestinians, since they are the weakest link.

As for Biden, the Palestinian issue, nor even the Middle East, was not his top priority, so his administration announced its withdrawal from the region and Afghanistan to devote himself to implementing its declared strategy of “containing China and Russia.”

The return of the United States to the Middle East indicates, in principle, a strategic failure in the Biden administration’s vision for the future of the conflict in the region and the world.

This failure also applies, to a large extent, to the Zionist government, which is no longer able to hide its losses and its inability to achieve the goals it announced at the beginning of the war. Perhaps the Israeli president's last speech was nothing more than a "defeat speech," according to many observers.

All data indicate that Beijing is continuing with its policy, without taking into account Israeli or American appeals, except in accordance with its interests and orientations, relying on its friendships with the countries of the region, which have reached the point of establishing strategic alliances and signing long-term agreements.

He better changes his mind o...

Anything from china does not last.

Israel should do a good job to rid the terrorists off their territory. Make Gaza very uncomfortable for them and they will flee. Truth is they need every support they can get against these bladdy terrorists.. if they are not contained they will become like ISIS which started in Syria and was overlooked by the Obama administration when he was called upon to deescalate the rising tension..

Just like Israel if Nigeria can call on mercenaries to aid their fight against the jihadists it will be a welcome development but the wickedness of th nigerian politicians wont let them bring a lasting solution to insecurity in the state.

If it is to do peacekeeping in Liberia, Sierra Leone the Nigerian army are quick jump into back of Hilux but when it comes to restoring peace in the North they say the terrain is rough. People died on the eve and on Christmas day but all they could say was the terrain is rough.

In all these killings going on in the North not one person.. One person has been apprehended..

Mtchew.. I pray one day your politicians will stop kill you.
