Unveiling the Future of the Middle East
From Conflict to Crisis: Trump's Influence
Explore the potential shifts in Middle Eastern geopolitics under Trump’s leadership and the implications for global stability.
What factors will shape the Middle East in the future?
The problems in the Middle East, the war that Israel is waging against Hamas in Gaza and Lebanon in particular, are never going to be easy to solve. Israel has solved part of the problem by refusing all media coverage in Gaza, ensuring that it is difficult to verify whether Israel is telling the truth or not, Trump has those problems to deal with. How will he shape the Middle East? He is making appointments now so the hawkish nature of the appointments suggests things in the region might change.
So how will Trump’s return impact the Middle East?
In an article by the same title “How will Trump’s return impact the Middle East?” this question is asked, although not necessarily answered. The start of the article goes like this: “The world woke up a few days ago to the news that former US President Donald Trump had won his third presidential race and that his party had achieved a comfortable majority in the Senate with 52 seats. At the same time, the Republicans have won a narrow majority in the House of Representatives.”
We’ve also been covering the genocide in Gaza extensively, with those as near to the ground as they can. Here are two articles from a journalist who used to live in Gaza, Mohammed Abunahel.
The first is about the World Organization which is rolling out the second phase of the polio vaccination campaign in North Gaza. The article starts like this: “Despite severe challenges posed by Israel in Gaza, the World Health Organization (WHO) and UNICEF have successfully completed the second round of a polio vaccination campaign across the Gaza Strip, achieving 94 percent coverage of the target population of children under 10. However, thousands of children in northern Gaza remain unvaccinated due to restricted access and escalating violence, raising concerns about the potential spread of poliovirus.”
The second story is about a French doctor, Pascal Andre, who describes the situation at the European hospital in Khan Younis as an “indescribable horror”.
“A French doctor who recently returned from working in Gaza has described the situation there as “indescribable horror,” highlighting the catastrophic impact of Israel’s ongoing military operations since October 7, 2023. The doctor, Pascal André, who worked at the European Hospital in Khan Younis, shared his harrowing experiences in an interview with Anadolu Agency, painting a grim picture of the humanitarian crisis unfolding in the besieged enclave.”
There is also an article entitled: “UN warns of North Gaza’s “apocalyptic” situation, as everyone at “imminent risk” of death”.
“The United Nations has sounded an urgent alarm about the catastrophic situation in northern Gaza, describing it as “apocalyptic” and warning that the entire population is at “imminent risk” of death due to disease, famine, and violence. The warning comes as Israel continues its genocide in Gaza, with the humanitarian crisis deepening daily.”
If you are interested in Israel’s economic situation as a result of waging war in the Middle East go to the story entitled: “Israel’s economy teeters on the brink of collapse, but it’s resilient”.
