This prisoner exchange is different: Palestinians want an Israeli released

JERUSALEM — What do prisoners in Israeli and American jails have to do with the Middle Eastern peace process?

Quite a lot, actually.

About 4,700 Palestinians are held in Israeli jails for what Israel refers to as “security crimes,” or in other words: nationalistic terror, which the Palestinians call “resistance.”

The convictions range from stone-throwing to multiple counts of premeditated murder, in the case of terror masterminds.

For the Palestinian government, the release of these prisoners, who have become popular heroes as symbols of the nationalistic struggle, is a tangible achievement that can be used as an argument in favor of the peace process.

Since last summer, when US Secretary of State John Kerry initiated his push toward a final-status solution for the intractable conflict, Israel has released 78 prisoners in three groups under the rubric of “confidence-building measures.”

The prisoners were all detained prior to the start of the Olso peace process, in 1993.

Each release of prisoners is greeted in Palestinian territories with jubilation and public celebration of the deeds that landed the prisoners in jail — while the Israeli family members of those killed, on the other hand, have been furious.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition partners on the right have reacted to the past three releases with threats to topple the government by resigning or leaving the coalition.

In the hope of placating the right, Israel has met each prisoner release in this series with an announcement of building plans for new settlements in the occupied territories.

Invariably, the settlement announcements provoke Palestinian accusations that Israel is not acting in good faith, and, from the United States, chastening statements that such measures are “unhelpful.” 

Behind the scenes, both US President Barack Obama and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas are aware of Netanyahu’s precarious perch within Israeli politics.

Another 26 prisoners are scheduled to be released in two days, and for the first time in the history of these negotiations, they include Israeli citizens.

Israeli citizens? Yes. A few dozen Israeli Arabs have been convicted of nationalistic crimes against the state. Several Israeli ministers have threatened to resign if any Israeli national is released, claiming that no sovereign nation can be coerced into releasing its own citizens who have been convicted of mass murder.

For the Palestinian Authority, achieving the release of freedom fighters who are Israelis makes the point that the Palestinian government is fighting for the cause of Palestinian liberation in the broadest possible way.

But if Netanyahu is to release Israeli citizens — and not just West Bank or Gaza Palestinians — he will have to shore up his own position with the right wing with something more significant than just another announcement of new settlement building plans.

Enter Jonathan Pollard, stage right. 

Who is Pollard? He is an American Jew who was working as a civilian CIA analyst in Washington, DC, when he was caught passing an Israeli contact classified documents in 1987. He pled guilty, and was sentenced to life.

Israel has been clamoring for his release since it began to shed the embarrassment of having been caught spying on its own closest ally, about 20 years ago, when such acts were not as commonplace as they are today.

Pollard’s release, about 18 months before he will be eligible for parole, is the single glittering carrot the United States can offer Netanyahu to buttress him before the barrage of domestic sticks that will come his way if the next prisoner release in fact takes place. (Right now, it’s not looking likely.)

The US really wants this prisoner release to happen: If it doesn’t, Abbas is threatening to abandon the peace process altogether. The US has invested a huge amount of resources and prestige in restarting the peace talks, and their failure would be a major setback at a time ​Obama and Kerry are already struggling to shore up the credibility of their foreign policy strategy.

Yesterday, Israel Army Radio reported that Washington had, in fact, offered to release Pollard. A few hours later, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said no such offer was on the table “currently.” 

A non-denial denial if ever there was one.

Following up on that news, reports emerged early Friday that Israel was rejecting the fourth prisoner release.

Stay tuned.

Thai protesters target ministries, threaten stock exchange

BANGKOK (Reuters) – Protesters trying to topple Thailand‘s government tightened a blockade around ministries on Tuesday and their leader warned the prime minister that she could be targeted next, as some saw more than two months of turmoil inching towards an endgame.

Major intersections in the capital, Bangkok, were blocked for a second day, and a hardline faction of the agitators threatened to storm the stock exchange.

Protest leaders say demonstrators will occupy the city’s main arteries until an unelected “people’s council” replaces Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra’s administration, which they accuse of corruption and nepotism.

The unrest is the latest chapter in an eight-year conflict pitting the Bangkok-based middle class and royalist establishment against the mostly poorer, rural supporters of Yingluck and her brother, Thaksin Shinawatra, a former premier ousted by the military in 2006.

Although the capital was calm and the mood among the tens of thousands of protesters remained festive, analysts said the scope for a peaceful resolution of the crisis ahead of elections called for February 2 was narrowing.

“There is no clear way out,” the International Crisis Group (ICG) think-tank said in a report. “As anti-government protesters intensify actions, the risk of violence across wide swathes of the country is growing and significant.”

Plans to paralyze the government

Ministries and the central bank have been forced to operate from back-up offices after protesters led by Suthep Thaugsuban stopped civil servants getting to work.

“In the next two or three days we must close every government office,” Suthep told a crowd of supporters. “If we cannot, we will restrict the movements of the prime minister and other ministers. We will start by cutting water and electricity to their homes. I suggest they evacuate their children.”

Groups of demonstrators marched peacefully from their seven big protest camps to ministries, the customs office, the planning agency and other state bodies on Tuesday, aiming to paralyze the workings of government.

A student group allied to Suthep’s People’s Democratic Reform Committee (PDRC) threatened to attack the stock exchange, with faction leader Nitithorn Lamlua telling supporters on Monday it represented “a wicked capitalist system that provided the path for Thaksin to become a billionaire.”

A PDRC spokesman said the bourse was not a target.

“We will not lay siege to places that provide services for the general public, including airports, the stock exchange and trains. However, we will block government offices to stop them from functioning,” Akanat Promphan told supporters at a rally.

Jarumporn Chotikasathien, president of the Stock Exchange of Thailand, said emergency measures had been prepared to secure the premises and trading systems. Trading was normal with the index up nearly 1.0 percent at the close.

Protesters want “people’s council,” not elections

Yingluck invited protest leaders and political parties to a meeting on Wednesday morning to discuss an Election Commission proposal to postpone the election until May.

But that proposal looked doomed, with protest leaders and opposition party members boycotting the meeting scheduled to be held at the air force’s headquarters in the north of the city.

Suthep says he is not interested in any election. He wants a “people’s council” to take power and eradicate the political influence of Thaksin and his family by altering electoral arrangements in ways he has not spelt out.

“A deal to postpone the election could buy time for negotiation but would be only a stopgap without a comprehensive, broadly accepted agreement on the future political order,” the ICG said. “Thailand is deeply polarized and the prospects for such an agreement are dim.”

It is widely thought that, if the agitation grinds on, the judiciary or the military may step in. The military has staged or attempted 18 coups in 81 years of on-off democracy, although it has tried to stay neutral this time and army chief Prayuth Chan-ocha has publicly refused to take sides.

In 2010, the army put down a pro-Thaksin movement that closed down parts of central Bangkok for weeks. More than 90 people, mostly Thaksin supporters, died during those events.
