This study aims to analyze and examine the trends in US positions regarding the establishment of a Palestinian state. It investigates the origin of such policies and practices.
The study delves into the stark contradiction between the publicly proclaimed US discourse supporting the two-state solution as a means to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the actual policies implemented by Washington that systematically obstruct this solution. This contradiction is evident in American diplomacy, the use of the Security Council veto, and the imposition of biased negotiating conditions that consistently favor Israel.
As a result, the study finds that the US is not exerting sufficient pressure on Israel to end the occupation or guarantee Palestinian rights. It reviews academic evaluations and finds that the US is managing the conflict rather than seeking to resolve or end the disputes.
Moreover, the US publicly supports Israel's superiority and dominance in the Middle East while marginalizing its other Arab allies.
Taking these findings into account, the study demonstrates the US's inability to reach a practical, safe, lasting, and just solution based on self-determination and Palestinian sovereignty.
The study concludes that continued reliance on the United States as a peace broker is a futile option. It explores other viable alternatives within the international community for mediating the conflict. The findings suggest that activating the international legal mechanisms and multilateral institutions may provide more reliable means to break the deadlock surrounding the recognition of the Palestinian state.
