    The PA is a great example of Counter Insurgency

    The plight of the Palestinians was an afterthought, if even that. Along with the US, “the Abraham Accords gave Israel the impression they could proceed without anything significant with the Palestinians,” Hellyer said.

    And that was a problem, because instead of trying to strike some sort of deal with the Palestinians, the Israelis realized they could push for whatever they wanted with America’s full support. In effect, the Abraham Accords emboldened the Israelis while allowing them to disregard Palestinian demands or rights.

      A fair criticism. However, the situation between Israel and Palestine has been stuck for two decades now.

      The Palestinians haven’t even been able to form a unified government for about that time as well.
