Transcripts
absolutely fascinating uh developments
um in the Middle East because fata now
and we're going to get a full
explanation from yanov but fata are the
organization that which run the
Palestinian territories not Gaza of
course uh because that's Hamas
terrorists but they have put out this
excoriating statement about what Hamas
did those terrorist attacks on the 7th
of October I I don't think this has been
happened in isolation I don't think that
fata have just decided to do that got up
one morning thought I know we'll put out
this statement to condemn Hamas let's
find out what's happening from yanov
voer who senior lecture in Middle East
politics yanov thanks for joining us uh
this morning uh sorry this afternoon um
this is a I mean this is pretty
astonishing that fata have done this
just give us the context of this
please oh thank you thank you so much
for having me um I think to be
fair has been very cautiously uh
criticizing Hamas for the decision to
launch the onslaught against Israel so
it's not the first time that P has been
somewhat critical toward hamas's
decision but it's the first time that it
actually comes out in public to do so
and in such in in in such strong terms I
mean this is a translation I just want
to give our viewers here or maybe maybe
maybe just tuning in just in the last
few minutes because I have read this a
little bit earlier in the program but
this is um the the official fata
statement against Hamas you didn't
consult anyone before you went for for
the 7th of October attacks this a
translation by the way you're
responsible and you're guilty of the
greatest disaster in the history of the
Palestinian people you want Iran to rule
over us your leaders live in sevenstar
hotels abroad they also move their
families from Gaza and we are paying the
price of War I mean they blame Israel as
well of course and you would expect them
to do so but this is very very pointed
against Hamas where do you think this
has come from I mean you're saying there
have been some criticisms before but
such a strong statement surely there's
some International pressure that's been
part of this
yanov absolutely and these are very
these are very harsh Wars in many ways
they they EO the the same accusations
that the Israeli government has used
against Hamas and this probably has to
do with the fact that P and the
Palestinian Authority are becoming
increasingly visible as as the as the
only potential leaders of the Gaza Strip
after the end of the figh yes
um the the Palestinian prime minister
sorry the president of the Palestinian
Authority Mahmud abas has actually
appointed a new government in recent
days um and this government can be
described as a more technocratic
government and this has been part partly
at this response to the pressure by The
Americans on the Palestinian Authority
to create a government that could
actually uh that could actually take
over the Gaza Street after the end of
the of the fighting yes and what do you
think is the most likely thing to happen
I mean you said that fata is probably
going to do so but would the gazan
people accept them do you
think so we all know of course that the
the fata was actually kicked out of Gaza
in 2006 and and they're seen as a very
corrupt um organization as well yes it
has been criticized for his corruption
and it has been criticized also for
being too um uh for being too for being
almost complicit in Israel's control of
the of the West Bank so it has suffered
from some legitimacy crisis on the other
hand the F still has some pockets of
support among the aazan populations
there are certain elements there are
certain families and and sectors that
they have been supporting fat the
Palestinian Authority has actually been
paying the salaries of um civil servants
in in the Gaza street right so there are
there have been some special connections
between the West Bank and and Gaza
between the Palestinian Authority and
the gazans and at the end of the day the
Palestinian Authority desp of the
criticism that it has faced in the um in
recent years it is still the only
Palestinian organization that is still
representing the Palestinian people so
it does make it it does probably make
the fat and Palestinian Authority more
legitimate than any other internal
organization or body that that will will
will come to
together yes and it's interesting just
in terms of the timing of all of this
you mentioned that fata May well be the
only showen time in Gaza when uh the war
is hopefully over and hopefully the
civilian casualties can be avoided on
both sides as much as possible and this
can be brought to conclusion but do you
think this might be I mean how cynical
do we need to be about this I suppose
yanov is this are statements like this
kind of the price of uh that that Israel
May extract from them that the
International Community May extract from
them to say well actually F if you go as
far as you can in condemning Hamas
terrorists well actually uh will
facilitate you being the leaders of Gaza
even though that's probably the most
likely outcome
anyway I I I actually genuinely believe
that was not happy with with with um
with with hamas's attack on you think
they're being you think they're being
sincere in
this yeah absolutely and don't
necessarily do it out of support for
Israel but out of realization that this
attack has actually caused a massive
disaster for the Palestinian
people f is not the only element in the
Arab world to have condemned Hamas for
the decision but it's the first but they
are Palestinians and that makes a huge
difference but I think it's not just a
Sinister criticism how will this be
received in Israel and indeed by people
in the Palestinian authorities and
indeed by people in
Gaza I
for a long time the Israeli government
under Benjamin netan has rejected the
idea of strengthening the Palestinian
Authority certainly before the year 7th
of October but I think that as time goes
by even uh some of the um even some of
the um stest voices against the
Palestinian Authority realize that there
is no other option there is no other
option because someone will have to take
over the Gaza Strip the Israel govern is
not planning on doing so so someone
needs to take over and the Palestinian
Authority at this point is really the
only actor that also has the legitimacy
and Connections in the Gaza Strip to
achieve that fascinating stuff thank you
very much indeed that's janana valer who
is senior lecture in Middle East
politics thank you very much indeed for
your time and uh that story uh came in
just this morning so thank you to uh
Yana for coming on quickly about it
Elizabeth is in Aberdine she's given me
a call on 0344 499 1000 Elizabeth I
think you have a question for me about
this General issue is that right you're
very welcome to the program this morning
yeah thank you Peter I was just
wondering what it is that you that you
know so emphatically that 15 icj judges
do not know when it comes to genocide
because you sort of cut Tony off an hour
or so ago cut him off at the knees when
he brought it up uh telling him that
there is no genocide happening there how
do you know that Peter Well the
definition of genocide is and I knew
your call was coming so I just Googled
it just in the brag beforehand is the
deliberate killing of a large number of
people from a particular Nation or
ethnic group with the aim of destroying
that Nation or group a campaign of
genocide that is not what Israel is
doing oh you don't think so well a lot
of us think that is what they're doing
um and I don't know how you can be in
disagreement with all these judges who
it's their it's because I think they're
wrong and also they're judges yeah
because you think they're wrong you
don't know they're wrong well I do
because Elizabeth there are many there
are well okay well let me explain why
and then perhaps you can give me your
opinion um there are judges on the
international criminal court who are
from or are from countries that have
unbelievably terrible human rights
records like Russia and China for
example and I'm free in a democracy to
disagree with their decision necessarily
I don't think it's democracy I don't
think it's uh what they are putting
forward within their view is actually
genocide and also they haven't said that
well their judgment is saying there is a
risk of genocide they're not saying that
there actually has been genocide in is
plausible plausible genocide is the
wording they use and like these other
countries that do not have a great
record on human rights really don't have
anything to do with it that that's
really what about those and it's got
nothing to do we're talking about I
don't really I don't really understand
your point I mean I don't I do not
disagree that some of the judges are
coming from countries that don't have a
great record themselves but they're
sitting on a panel and they were given
the task to do this and
it's as close as you can get to genocide
and the fact that you can't see that is
really disappointing just just one more
comment if I may sure the fact the fact
that you didn't know that your research
hasn't gone far enough to know about
David Miller that amazes me okay I I I
can't know every single thing that a
caller or texter brings up there are
literally hundreds of different issues
that people uh make points on Elizabeth
over the course of a three-hour program
and I I I mean I I I that person made
that point and certainly I have you know
have read into it now in the breaks and
so on but if someone just thrw something
at me on the air I can't know every
single news story it's impossible it's
not about knowing every single news
story that's a pretty big one Peter
anyway thank you for listening to me I
appreciate it no not at all thanks
Elizabeth thanks for your call H that
was Elizabeth in
alberan
