(MENAFN- Arab Times) ARABS believe that the invitation to the Geneva negotiations is merely for tourism purposes - for the struggling delegations to waste time and impose certain conditions. Since 1948, the Swiss city has been a place for prolonging the suffering of nations; starting from the Palestinians, Syrians and then the Yemenis. The United Nations was supposed to make teeth and nails for Chapter Seven of its pact to impose the international law over the rebellions through resolution number 2216 which was issued by its Security Council.
Yet, it seems the international organization abandoned its original role to become an authority that endorses terrorists and murderers. In addition, it searches for various ways to obligate the legal governments in Arab countries to accept the occupation, rebel and coup powers as part of the ruling system. This is the most dangerous occurrence that man could ever. The organization, which is in charge of controlling terrorism internationally, has placed the Yemeni victim and the Houthi executioner in front of each other; forgetting its international role in taking decisive steps while lifting sanctions imposed on the culprits.
An Arab adage says, "The content is known through its headline"; so the content of the UN's speech to the Arab world, particularly the countries which suffer from terrorism like Iraq, Syria and Libya, entails agreement to have a dialogue with what the organization considers terrorist groups. Thus, it is not strange if it invites DAESH to sit in front of the legal country in order to negotiate and talk about the destiny of Iraq.
Libya might be in the same situation as the terrorist organization dominates several areas in the country, as well as Syria; because the criminal Houthis are similar to DAESH, al-Qaeda, al-Nosrah and the Brotherhood. These groups terrify innocent people and impose their will by committing murders, massacres and displacing others.
The most unusual aspect of the issue is not the invitation for the group to attend the negotiations, but the solutions provided by the international circles regarding the Arab world. Apparently, these circles have legalized what they banned in other parts of the world. For example, the UN did not invite Spain to hold talks with Basque under its umbrella or hold negotiations between the Irish Republic Army and the United Kingdom, as it regarded the war between separatist powers and the governments of the two countries as an internal issue. Yet, the language is different in the Arab world. The organization tells us that it grants indirect legality to each gang or terrorist group which kills and displaces us. At the same time, it prevents the country from exercising its right to defend itself against outlaws and those who violate humanitarian traditions.
Such behavior of the United Nations encourages terrorist powers to engage in violent acts to achieve their goals, as it deliberately disregards the malpractices of terrorist groups. This prompts us to raise some serious questions: If a group of culprits in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, any other GCC country, Egypt or other Arab countries rebel against the government, will the UN prohibit the country from exercising its legal right to defend itself and its people? Should it go to Geneva to negotiate with the rebels and terrorists? Definitely, going to Geneva entails a long series of negotiations and moving around an empty circle until terrorism dominates the country.
We then fear the possibility that the Geneva conference on Yemen becomes a new nail on the coffin of the international organization which is, intentionally or unintentionally, keen on undermining global stability and peace.
