The Oasis Plan Can Begin an Unstoppable Peace

Jan. 18—How do you win the peace—not merely stop the fighting, but create an unstoppable peace? Without a new and positive dynamic which repairs the crimes that have been committed, the conflict will surely resume—as was seen when World War I “unpaused” to become World War II, and when the peace potential of the Oslo Accords was effectively killed with the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin.

Early on the morning of Jan. 19, the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas began. Three phases are outlined, which include the release of Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners, the supplying of humanitarian aid to Gaza, and the withdrawal of IDF forces from Gaza. But, will it last? What will prevent the ceasefire from being sabotaged?

“I think for the region of the Middle East, the Oasis Plan is right now the one thing which would change the dynamic,” Helga Zepp-LaRouche told a meeting of the International Peace Coalition on Jan. 17. “According to my view and many other people, this does require the immediate recognition of a Palestinian state, and obviously that state cannot function if there is not an immediate, not just reconstruction of Gaza, which is completely flattened to the ground, but … a real peace order in the entire region, which we have provided with the Oasis Plan. If we could somehow encourage the Trump administration to really go into a real peace-building by getting the countries of the Middle East together to implement the Oasis Plan, then this has a real potential to solve the situation.”

However, the slime mold of the imperial world order, which created the anti-human doctrine of geopolitics, cannot abide the prospect of loss of hegemony over the world system. This can be seen in the frantic scrambling to ensure that Ukraine has enough Western support to keep fighting Russia to the last Ukrainian; in the outbursts of imperial mouthpieces like London’s Chatham House, which bemoans China’s “nonfinancial investments across the developing world”; and the threats of the permanent bureaucracy in the U.S., who warn Trump against throwing the warmongering liars out of the U.S. intelligence agencies.

On the other hand, the majority of humanity is forming itself into a new and growing world order of win-win cooperation for development in rejection of colonialism. Nigeria just became the newest BRICS partner nation, joining eight other partners and ten member nations, together comprising around 52% of the world’s population. According to the statement of BRICS chair Brazil’s Foreign Ministry, “With the world’s sixth-largest population—and Africa’s largest—as well as being one of the continent’s major economies, Nigeria shares convergent interests with other members of BRICS. It plays an active role in strengthening South-South cooperation and in reforming global governance.”

Were the United States to cooperate with China, with nations of the Global South, to overcome the effects of 500 years of colonialism, this generation could build a just and lasting peace. Geopolitics, the greatest threat to the security and lives of all nations of their people, can be overcome as if a childhood disease of human culture.

Add to this dynamic the special intervention launched by The LaRouche Organization to expose the deadly networks of the war party in the U.S. A new dossier, published in full below, identifies many of the key lies and concocted narratives by this “Liars’ Bureau” over the past 25 years.

This document is timed for circulation in Washington, D.C., and internationally, just as the U.S. Senate hearings are underway for nominations in the new Trump Administration. President-elect Donald Trump’s choices of Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence and Kash Patel for FBI Director have drawn extreme wrath and fear among the enemies of the U.S. and humanity, indicating why it is vital for them to be confirmed if the Trump Administration stands a chance at combatting this apparatus.

These two openings—the ceasefire in Gaza and the new Presidency—underline the dramatic nature of the world we are living in today. The most important thing to recognize, however, is that the war party is increasingly not in control of world events, and thus the opportunity to intervene has never been greater.
