The repercussions of what is happening in the occupied
Palestinian territories pose a serious threat to the occupation itself. If
experts were studying the matter in Israel, they would reach conclusions that
may never be overcome after all these years.

After 73 years and ahead of the anniversary of the
establishment of the occupation’s state, these conclusions resurface in a
different form. The outrage that began in Al-Aqsa Mosque and extended across
all of Palestine has had far more of an impact than military confrontation in
the occupied Palestinian territories. There are different outcomes, visible to
all, without exception, including Israel’s experts and analysts who are now in
a state of shock.
The first of these conclusions are that Al-Aqsa Mosque is a
red line, which cannot be violated no matter how much Israel tries. The mosque
cannot be harmed, invaded, or controlled. The popular national front in
Palestine has proven that any false state of inaction is bound to collapse when
the mosque comes into question, which means that Israel must leave the mosque
be.
The second conclusion is that Israel’s presence has not been
accepted, neither in the region nor in Palestine. Despite all the oppression,
killing, evictions, attempts to divide Palestinians into factions or overcrowd
them in Gaza and the West Bank and granting the people temporary residencies in
Jerusalem, the Palestinian spirit remains united. The imaginary divides that
have been manufactured over the course of the previous decades fell apart,
proving that the people stand as one.
Third, killing and military force cannot change the reality.
For 70 years, Israel has been killing, evicting, and imprisoning Palestinians
but nothing has changed. The Israelis have only gained a temporary and fragile
security. The torturing of one generation only strengthens another, which then
finds new ways to stand against Israel — extending its ordeal. Any attempts to
work around the root of the occupation’s issue with temporary solutions has
failed to stabilize its presence in Palestine.
Fourth, the appeal of the Israeli project is rapidly falling
apart, because even if the Israelis did not sustain direct damages under the
ongoing circumstances, they would still be forced to question their reasons for
putting up with ongoing instability. They would also question whether they had
to continue fighting against
Palestine’s rejection of Israel, various threats
and the collapse of a state, which no matter how strong cannot fully protect
itself. These factors combined are bound to reduce the willingness of Israeli
households and individuals to remain.
Fifth, Israel itself will encounter an internal struggle,
one involving the religious and secular portions of the population, as well as
the ordeal of forming a government. Ongoing circumstances will only add to
existing complications, as Netanyahu and his defense minister attempt to drown
each other using the current outburst and a military failure that will bring to
light a number of issues whose repercussions we shall see in Israel once this
wave of clashes settles. The occupation’s officials will soon also have to pay
a price for their failure.
The sixth conclusion relates to Palestine’s neighbors who
have rejected Israel and are waiting for the right time to avenge its policies
and practices against the Palestinians, and the region as a whole. One would
have to wonder how the occupation feels in the face of such outrage from
Jordan, Egypt, Syria, and Lebanon among other countries, and whether it can
sustain itself amid such opposition.
The seventh conclusion is that the project of a Jewish state
may see higher demand now, but religious and ethnic cleansing projects are now
impossible to see through. Israel, today, is paying the price of the
Palestinians’ demographic stability across the occupied territories. This
stability is permanent and has tools to counter the occupation. It cannot be
weakened nor broken nor expelled.
The above conclusions, among others, indicate that Israel
will not survive.
