Mohammed Omran - Gaza
The closure of the horizon of reconciliation between the Palestinian National Liberation Movement (Fatah) and the Islamic Resistance (Hamas) has led to other solutions that are described as bold and strange, sometimes outside the Palestinian political think tank, but in a different direction than traditional ones since their tours began years ago.
In exchange for a call for direct negotiations between Hamas and the occupation, away from the Palestinian Authority, to agree on a long-term truce that would put an end to the tragedy of two million Palestinians living in Gaza in dire conditions, the idea of establishing a federal system between the West Bank and Gaza has come to an end.

Abrach resorted to the idea of federalism to confront "the schemes of Israel and America and other parties to establish the state of Gaza and its separation from the West Bank and thus the destruction of the national project," it is this solution is optimal if we prefer between federalism and separation, and meets the specifics of Gaza, At his discretion.

The professor of political science at the University of Azhar in Gaza Mekhmar Abu Saada believes that talking about a Palestinian federation is premature and needs to be freed from occupation and then agree on the form of the desired state, but does not rule out that this option can be implemented if the current state of division is strengthened and the fear of full separation .

However, resorting to this option will be faced with many difficulties and obstacles that begin with the Palestinians themselves, in addition to the need for Israeli and Arab And international are not currently available.
