Israel’s 7 Year Proposal To Share Power

According to an article in the New York Times this past Friday, Israeli officials are weighing a plan to share power with Arab States in postwar Gaza. Here are a couple of very interesting quotes from the article:

“For months, Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has avoided detailed public discussion about Gaza’s postwar future. Behind the scenes, however, senior officials in his office have been weighing an expansive plan for postwar Gaza, in which Israel would offer to share oversight of the territory with an alliance of Arab countries, including Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE, as well as the US, according to three Israeli officials and five people who have discussed the plan with members of the Israeli government. Israel would do so in exchange for normalised relations between itself and Saudi Arabia.”

“Far-right members of Netanyahu’s coalition are almost certain to dismiss such an idea, and so are the Arab countries mentioned as possible participants. But it is the clearest sign yet that officials at the highest levels of Israel’s government are thinking about Gaza’s postwar future, despite saying little in public, and could be a starting point in future negotiations.”

“Under the proposal, the Arab-Israeli alliance, working with the US, would appoint Gazan leaders to redevelop the devastated territory, overhaul its education system and maintain order. After between seven and 10 years, the alliance would allow Gazans to vote on whether to be absorbed into a united Palestinian administration that would govern in both Gaza and the Israeli-occupied West Bank, according to the proposal.”

So even though this proposal has a fair bit of opposition right now, the article points out that it could be a starting point for future negotiations. This is especially interesting considering how the 7 to 10 years length lines up with the 7 year covenant with many to be confirmed by the Antichrist. ♦
