Fatah demands that the body be established by a presidential decree. Israel may oppose this because the decree would pave the way for a political relationship between the Palestinian Authority and the government in Gaza. The military force that will give effect to the new government will be composed of the residents of Gaza and the West Bank, who are not politically defined. As we previously reported here, a discussion is currently taking place Regarding the training of the new force in the USA. Because of this, our assessment is that the US was in on the move from the beginning, and it is possible that it even initiated it with Egypt. The US is not yet openly putting the proposal on the table, apparently because the Netanyahu government opposes it. As we reported here in the past, the US also does not put on the table the proposal of Hamas, to compromise on an Israeli presence in several points in Philadelphy, in exchange for a complete Israeli withdrawal from the Rafah crossing. A Palestinian source told us this week: Israel opposes Hamas' compromise proposal.
