Cartoon and text posted on the official Fatah Facebook page
Text on cartoon: “Kuwait: [Kuwaiti Parliament Speaker] Marzouq Al-Ghanim throws the deal of the century into the trash”
I.e., refers to US President Donald Trump’s Middle East peace plan, see note below, and the fact that Kuwaiti Parliament Speaker Marzouq Al-Ghanim threw a copy of the deal into a trash can during an Arab Parliamentary Union conference on Feb. 8, 2020.
The cartoon shows a man in traditional Arab garb stepping on the pedal of a trash can in the shape of US President Donald Trump to open its mouth and throwing into it a document on which is written “the deal of the century.” Next to the Trump-shaped trash can is another trash can in the shape of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In the upper left of the cartoon is the PA map of “Palestine” that presents all of Israel as “Palestine” together with the PA areas in the colors of the Palestinian flag, with the word “Palestine” in English next to it.
The Trump peace plan – US President Donald Trump announced his Israel–Palestinian peace plan "Peace to Prosperity" – commonly known as “the deal of the century” - on Jan. 28, 2020. Main points of the plan: 1- Israeli sovereignty would be applied to the Jordan Valley and all Israeli towns and cities in the West Bank. 2- Jerusalem, including all its holy sites, would remain under Israeli sovereignty with accommodations made to enable access for Palestinians. 3- The remainder of the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, and part of what is currently Israeli land in the Negev, the Galilee, and Jerusalem - creating a territory almost equal in size to the West Bank and Gaza Strip - would form the Palestinian state, with its capital in neighborhoods in East Jerusalem that are outside of Israel's security wall. 4- The Palestinian state would be demilitarized, with Israel responsible for external security and controlling all airspace. 5- All Palestinian prisoners except murderers, and those who attempted or conspired to murder would be released. 6- Palestinians in refugee camps would be absorbed into their host countries and, subject to certain limitations, into the Palestinian state. 7- Before becoming a state, the Palestinians would have to carry out extensive reform of their laws and institutions, including implementing a new governing system; granting its people due process and basic human rights and freedoms; end all incitement to and incentivizing of terror; end all glorification of terror and martyrdom; disarm Hamas; and adopt a culture promoting peace. The goal of the plan is to create a Palestinian state beside Israel, living in peace and security. The implementation would be facilitated through extensive international investment.
