The Israel-Palestine peace deal has been in effect for some time now. Moreover, the entire world, including the Prime Minister of Israel, has been recognizing and celebrating the contributions of the President of the USA.  

However, several people do not know about Toney Blair’s contributions to this peace plan.  However, a few days ago, the renowned journalist Mehdi Hasan shared his views on the Israel-Palestine peace plan. While Mehdi approved various parts of the peace deal, he was critical of Tony Blair and the peace plan in certain areas.   

Therefore, Mehdi Hasan destroys Tony Blair in certain ways while providing his opinion on the peace plan happening between Israel and Palestine.  

In this Big Jar News article, we will break down the discussion between Piers Morgan and the renowned journalist Mehdi Hasan. 

A Quick Overview Of The Peace Plan Between Israel And Palestine  

Donald Trump’s peace plan, moreover, incorporates several elements from the 2011 negotiations, where Tony Blair played a crucial role. Furthermore, the plan includes some of the most critical aspects that will benefit the local Gaza population. 

The plan also included a roadmap for the region’s infrastructure development. Moreover, this included water desalination units for Gaza and sewage treatment plants for Sheik Aileen and Khan Yunis. 

Trump’s peace plan also seeks to rehabilitate the broken infrastructure, like hospitals and bakeries. 

The plan seeks to restore supplies of other essentials, such as water. Moreover, the Peace plan also aims to provide essential equipment for removing rubble from the required lines of communication, such as roads. 

The plan also tries to supply the Palestinian offshore gas to the power plants of Gaza. Moreover, Donald Trump’s plan seeks to transform Gaza completely while using the expertise of various other thriving Middle Eastern economies. 

What Was The Conversation Between Mehdi Hasan And Piers Morgan About Tony Blair And His Peace Plan?  

The host of the show, Piers Morgan, initiated his question while calling the situation historic. Moreover, the show’s host also stated that the plan was historic, since all parties had approved in some way or another. 

However, Piers then asked Hasan what he liked and what he did not like about the entire plan. 

Mehdi Hasan reminded the audience that Jared Kushner and Tony Blair made the plan. However, Benjamin Netanyahu made some edits to the entire peace plan.  

Hence, Mehdi Hasan thinks that a plan that was written by Jared Kushner and Tony Blair and then edited by Benjamin Netanyahu “should not be great for the Palestinians”.  

However, Mehdi thinks that the bill is important as people like him want to end the fighting.  

1. What Does The Peace Deal Mean For The Palestinians And The Involved Parties? 

Mehdi Hasan says that he is not a Palestinian, hence the Palestinians get to decide what happens to their future, and what they are willing to do for their future. Moreover, Mehdi suggests that it is up to the Palestinians to determine if they want a ceasefire, or if they want to fight. 

Moreover, Mehdi believes that it is completely up to the Palestinians what they are willing to do. 

However, Mehdi finds several positive aspects of the peace deal. Mehdi ranks “end to the fighting” above all the good things.  

He also reminds people of the other good things, including the release of hostages and detainees from both sides. 

Furthermore, Mehdi talked about the end of starvation. Most importantly, Mehdi emphasized the resumption of aid. 

Further, he reminded that the peace plan includes provisions for the resumption of aid.  

Thus, Hasan considers it a confession that the aid was halted for so long. 

2. Is The Peace Plan A Very Colonial Plan? Mehedi Hasaan Destroys Tony Blair 

Hasan reminded the audience about all the Good things about the plan. However, he also stated that it was a very colonial plan. Hence, a considerable number of Palestinians have described it as a very colonial plan.  

Mehdi Hasan said that Tony Blair and Donald Trump should have had nothing to do with the peace plan. Mehdi also thinks that Blair has been a disaster for the Middle East. Hence, he believes that bringing Tony Blair back was “insane”.  

3. Is This A Peace Plan? Mehdi Hasan Destroys Tony Blair 

Mehdi Hasan also points out that this is not a peace plan. Moreover, he thinks the peace requires a settlement of the conflict. Hence, peace requires justice for the Palestinian people and, most importantly, an end to the occupation of Palestinian land. 

However, this plan does not really do any of that. He also stated that there is a vague mention about the Statehood of Palestine. Moreover, the plan subjects the statehood of Palestine to several ifs and buts. 

Thus, Mehdi Hasan thinks that Hamas is not the core issue. However, Hamas acts as a symptom of the real problem. The occupation of Palestinian land continues to play the role of the real issue in the conflict. Moreover, Mehdi Hasan states that there have been no efforts to fix that. 

4. Why Is Tony Blair Not The Ideal Candidate For The Job? 

Both Piers Morgan and Mehdi Hasan criticized Tony Blair’s role during the Iraq War. Furthermore, Piers Morgan even compared the presence of Tony Blair in this Peace Plan with “putting a fox in the hen coop”. Moreover, both the host and the guest accepted that Tony Blair could resolve the Northern Ireland problem, as both parties saw Britain as a fair, neutral player. 

However, Mehdi Hasan interprets the role of Blair and Donald Trump as fairly colonial. 

What Is The Big Jar Take On Tony Blair’s Involvement In The Gaza Peace Plan  

We at Big Jar News think that the involvement of foreign powers often creates problems and lengthens the conflict.  

Moreover, the involvement of the USA and Iranian proxies has worsened the case in several ways. However, the world needs more neutral powers that do not prioritize their own interests over those of victims. 

Thus, the role of the mediators should always be more neutral. Moreover, the involvement of foreign powers, especially Western, does make it feel like a colonial hangover. 

The Palestinians and Israelis should definitely determine their future through bilateral talks. The region holds massive potential, and hence proper education and peace will ensure the betterment of life in the area.
