Gaza Crisis: A Call for Genuine Diplomacy and Humanitarian Aid, 22 OCT

 Gaza Crisis: A Call for Genuine Diplomacy and Humanitarian Aid, 22 OCT

In the heart of the Middle East, a humanitarian crisis unfolds, a crisis of lives, liberty, and dignity, with Gaza as its epicenter. The long-standing conflict between Israel and Hamas has now reached a critical point, leaving the residents of Gaza gasping for basic needs – food, water, medical care, and shelter.

Aid Amidst Acrimony

The United States, together with Egypt and Israel, has facilitated the delivery of a 20-truck convoy bearing much-needed humanitarian aid to Gaza, the first since Hamas’s attack on Israel on October 7. Yet, this is but a drop in the ocean. The international community is gradually addressing the crisis, but the demand still far outstrips the supply.

Former Ambassador of India to Jordan and Libya, Anil Trigunayat, underscores the need for a genuine diplomatic effort by credible interlocutors to resolve the Gaza crisis. Trigunayat criticizes subjective and presumptive diplomacy, arguing that it only serves to disrupt the peace processes. In the light of this, it’s imperative for the international community to work in unison to provide humanitarian aid to Gaza and ensure that it reaches those in need.

Obstacles to Aid

However, the delivery of aid to Gaza is not without its challenges. Israel has expressed concerns that the aid could be used to smuggle weapons and munitions to Hamas. This concern delayed the shipment of aid for days. Adding to the woes, the Israeli military is blocking fuel from entering Gaza, resulting in the shutdown of hospitals and health care clinics. The World Health Organization has stated that much more aid is needed to address the escalating health needs in Gaza.

Global Response to the Crisis

UN chief Antonio Guterres has called for a humanitarian ceasefire in the war between Israel and Hamas. He described the situation in Gaza as a ‘humanitarian catastrophe’ and called for action to end the violence. Leaders from Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Italy, Spain, and the Palestinian Authority convened in Cairo to discuss the crisis. However, Israel criticized the summit participants for failing to condemn Hamas for its alleged massacres.

China has also been actively engaged in diplomatic efforts to mediate the Israel-Hamas conflict. Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has held several discussions with counterparts from the Muslim world to address the crisis. China has called for a united stand from Arab and Islamic countries in resolving the crisis and has supported a two-state solution to the conflict.

The ongoing crisis in Gaza calls for a genuine diplomatic effort by credible interlocutors to evolve a resolution. The international community must join hands to provide humanitarian aid to Gaza, ensuring it reaches those who need it most. The situation in Gaza is a humanitarian catastrophe, and urgent action is needed to end the violence and address the needs of the people in Gaza.

What are the economic consequences for the world if Iran blocks the transit of oil and gas?, 22 OCT

 What are the economic consequences for the world if Iran blocks the transit of oil and gas?

Baghdad Today - Follow-up

The war between Israel and the Islamist group Hamas has raised the risk of a wider conflict in the region in which Iran and other factions in the region could be embroidered.

Analysts and market watchers say the conflict could prompt the United States to tighten sanctions on Iran, prompting Tehran to take retaliatory measures against ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The Marshall Islands, one of the world's most flagged countries, last week noted the growing threat of attack within Israeli territorial waters, the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz, the Gulf of Oman and areas bordering the Red Sea for ships with links to Israel or the United States.

Here are some details about the street:

* What is the Strait of Hormuz?

-This straight separates Iran and Oman.

- It connects the Arabian Gulf in the north and the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea in the south.

- The strait is 33 kilometers wide at its narrowest part, but the shipping lane is only three kilometers wide in both directions.

The UAE and Saudi Arabia are seeking other ways to avoid the strait, including more oil pipelines.

* Why is it important?

About one-fifth of the world's oil consumption passes through the strait every day.

Data from analytics firm Vortexa showed that an average of 20.5 million barrels per day of crude oil, condensate and petroleum products passed through the Strait of Hormuz from January to September 2023.

Most crude exports from Saudi Arabia, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Iraq, all members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), pass through the strait.

- Almost all of Qatar's LNG production also passes through the straight. Qatar is the world's largest exporter.

Vortexa said about 80 million tons, or 20 percent, of the world's LNG flows pass through the strait each year.

JPMorgan said in a note last week, "If the conflict expands to include the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the world's busiest oil shipping channel, it will halt oil trade in the region, driving up oil prices."

"More importantly, despite Iran's threats over the past years to close the strait, it has never done so."

* Impact of US sanctions

- The United States imposes sanctions on Iran with the aim of stopping its oil exports.

- Iran has threatened to disrupt oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz if the United States tries to strangle its economy.

The US Fifth Fleet based in Bahrain is tasked with protecting merchant ships in the region.

* Increased tension

- The Israeli army is preparing to launch a ground invasion with the aim of eliminating Hamas, raising the risk of a broader conflict. 

On Wednesday, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian appealed to Islamic countries to impose an oil embargo and other sanctions on Israel, but OPEC sources ruled out such a scenario. 

In 1973, Arab oil-producing countries led by Saudi Arabia imposed an oil embargo on Western supporters of Israel in its war with Egypt, targeting Canada, Japan, the Netherlands, Britain and the United States. 

Although Western countries were the main buyers of crude produced by Arab countries at that time, today Asia is the main buyer of OPEC crude.

* Previous incidents witnessed in the Strait of Hormuz 

During their war between 1980 and 1988, both Iraq and Iran sought to obstruct the other country's oil exports in what was known at the time as the tanker war.

In July 1988, the US battleship Vincennes shot down an Iranian plane, killing all 290 people on board. Washington called it an accident, while Tehran said it was a deliberate attack.

In early 2008, the United States said Iranian boats had threatened three US Navy ships in the strait.

In July 2010, the Japanese tanker M-Star was attacked in the strait. A militant group known as the Abdullah Azzam Brigades, which is linked to al Qaeda, claimed responsibility for the attack.

In January 2012, Iran threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz in response to US and European sanctions targeting its oil revenues in an attempt to halt Tehran's nuclear program.

In May 2015, Iranian vessels seized a container ship in the strait and fired shots at a Singapore-flagged tanker that reportedly destroyed an Iranian oil platform.

In July 2018, former Iranian President Hassan Rouhani hinted that his country might disrupt the passage of oil through the Strait of Hormuz in response to US calls to reduce Iran's oil exports to zero.

In May 2019, four ships, including two Saudi oil tankers, were attacked off the coast of the UAE near Fujairah outside the Strait of Hormuz.

In January 2021, Iran detained a South Korean-flagged tanker in Gulf waters and arrested its crew members.

In December 2022, the US military said that an IRGC boat came within 150 yards of US warships in the strait.

In May 2023, Iran detained two oil tankers as they passed through the street.

In July 2023, the US Navy said it intervened to prevent Iran from detaining two commercial tankers in the Gulf of Oman.

The navy said in a statement that Iran had "harassed, attacked or detained about 20 merchant ships flying international flags" since 2021.

"RV UPDATE" BY BREITLING, 22 OCT

 Breitling

  Look at the opportunity for Iraq.  They're saying, 'Hey, we need to sell energy in these other currencies.'  The United States is like 'No problem. We don't care.  We're expanding our markets anyways.'  

There might have been in the past a situation where if Iraq sold energy in other currencies that we lost market share.  But that's not the case coming down the road... Iraq...figured out a plan to go forward to be able to sell to as many customers as possible.  

That's how they want to add value to the currency is taking that route.  It's good for the United States.  It's good for Iraq...

 LOP - If they're going to LOP they don't need to shut the dollar off in their country.  They don't need to reduce their money supply.  They don't need to get rid of the 50 dinar note. 

 They don't need to pass banking laws.  They would have said that's what they wanted to do.  They said they wanted to add value to their currency and that's it.  

Iraq’s Prime Minister Accuses Israel of Genocide at Cairo Peace Summit, 22 OCT

 Iraq’s Prime Minister Accuses Israel of Genocide at Cairo Peace Summit, 22 OCT

In a world caught in the throes of conflict and upheaval, it is the voices of leaders that often echo the loudest, defining the narrative of our times. Such a voice was heard at the Cairo Peace Summit, where the Prime Minister of Iraq, Mohammed Shiaa Al Sudani, accused Israel of violating international law and committing acts of genocide against the Palestinian people.

Sounds of War, Cries for Peace

Al Sudani’s remarks came amidst the simmering heat of the Cairo Peace Summit, a conclave of leaders from various nations, convened to discuss the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine. The Iraqi Prime Minister’s words painted a harsh picture of Israel’s actions – targeting civilians in schools, hospitals, mosques, and churches, actions he labeled as war crimes. His call to arms was not for more violence, but for an end to the Israeli occupation and an immediate cessation of the suffering of the Palestinian people.

Al Sudani’s plea extended beyond the immediate crisis. He highlighted the need for international bodies to enforce their resolutions related to the Palestinian issue and called for a comprehensive exchange of prisoners and detainees. These demands, while specific, were symbolic of a broader call for justice and accountability in a conflict that seems to have been forgotten by the world.

An Echoing Humanitarian Crisis

The leaders at the summit sought to delve into the historic roots of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, pushing for a resolution based on the two-state solution and the Arab Peace Initiative. However, much of the discourse was dominated by the humanitarian crisis unfolding in Gaza and the desperate need for immediate action. The healthcare system in Gaza is teetering on the brink of collapse, with hospitals overwhelmed and scarce resources dwindling. Médecins Sans Frontières has warned of catastrophic levels of need, and doctors have voiced concerns about the lives of premature babies being at risk due to a lack of fuel.

The Struggle for Aid

The issue of aid delivery to Gaza was also prominently addressed at the summit. While the Rafah crossing between Egypt and Gaza has been opened to allow in a limited amount of aid, this is seen as barely a drop in the ocean compared to the scale of the crisis. Aid agencies and officials are caught in a tug-of-war with Israel to allow the delivery of essential supplies such as fuel for hospitals and water desalination systems.

The international community, represented by leaders and foreign ministers from Turkey, Japan, Germany, and Norway, among others, expressed deep concern over the situation in Gaza. Their calls for an immediate ceasefire and the protection of Palestinian rights echoed through the halls of the summit. The UN Secretary-General, António Guterres, urged all parties to take action to end the crisis and provide continuous aid to Gaza.

Yet, even as words of peace and pleas for action filled the air, the Israeli military continued its airstrikes on Gaza, targeting militants who were firing rockets and anti-tank missiles near the border with Lebanon. The war continues unabated, claiming lives and displacing people, casting a long shadow over the summit’s aspiration for peace.

In the wake of the Cairo Peace Summit, the world is left with a stark reminder of the ongoing conflict and an urgent call to action. The international community must heed these calls, support the rights of the Palestinian people, and work towards a comprehensive resolution to the conflict. The echoes of the summit, filled with both hope and despair, ring loudly, urging the world to listen and act.
