A senior Fatah official in Lebanon stated that the internationally backed two-state solution is a tactic designed to ultimately lead to Israel's elimination. Basel Abu Shahab, speaking on the official Fatah television channel on Monday, described the establishment of a Palestinian state as a strategy intended to dismantle the Israeli entity. He suggested that if people understood the true intentions of Palestinian leadership, such as Yasser Arafat or Mahmoud Abbas, they would grasp this strategy. Abu Shahab asserted that Israel is aware of the danger, as Palestinian independence would enable significant military buildup, predicting that within twenty years, Palestinians would possess an air force and industry comparable to Israel's. He concluded by stating that declaring a Palestinian state means the disappearance of the "Israeli entity" and, in his view, also the disappearance of global Zionism or Freemasonry.
