A Provocative Critique of Modern Middle Eastern Diplomacy.

The 2020 Abraham Accords represented a radical departure from decades of Arab-Israeli diplomacy. By establishing formal ties between Israel and several Arab nations without a resolution to the Palestinian conflict, these agreements fundamentally reshaped the region's power dynamics.

Hichem Karoui's The Abraham Accords and the Marginalisation of the Palestinian People offers a scholarly yet accessible critique of this transformation. Karoui argues that the ""transactional peace"" championed by the Trump administration and Israeli leadership has prioritized military and economic cooperation over the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people. Through a series of detailed case studies, the book illustrates how the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco moved toward normalization, often in exchange for specific geopolitical favors, while leaving the Palestinian cause in a diplomatic vacuum.

Key Themes Explored:

The erosion of the ""Land for Peace"" paradigm. The role of Iranian influence in forging new Arab-Israeli security alliances. The disconnect between Arab regimes and grassroots public opinion. The impact of Israeli ""outside-in"" strategy on Palestinian agency. The future of Palestinian resistance and the search for a new path to liberation.

This book provides a vital counter-narrative to the mainstream celebration of the Accords, highlighting the ""toxic"" consequences for those most impacted by the ongoing occupation. It is an indispensable guide to the complexities of the contemporary Middle East.
