The Palestine Liberation Organizasyon used to have a secular, progressive political agenda. The US project to clash it with its radical Islamist version was in line with the green belt doctrine in force during the 80s. Then throughout 90s and 2000s the left had been made to adopt this religious radicalism with the pretext of democracy and the green belt doctrine which used to be considered as a corner stone of the Middle Eastern fascism in the 70s and the 80s was made forgotten.

And the rise of Russia as the new global power undertaking huge infrastructures namely the New Silk Road, Yamal Project, Shanghai Five, rebuilding the Eurasia-centered World system as the new global converging market?
