The U.S. Security Coordinator (USSC) mission in Jerusalem was created in 2005 to help implement security sector reform within the Palestinian Authority (PA). With a single-minded focus on “counterterrorism,” Washington considered the USSC an ancillary mechanism to support U.S. diplomatic and political efforts to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Despite upending long-standing U.S. policy and cutting all other forms of aid to the Palestinians, the Trump administration has maintained the USSC in the run-up to the “Deal of the Century.” This article draws on original interviews with security personnel responsible for enacting USSC interventions. It uses their insights to highlight how the mission tethered Israeli political aims to its remit, and the distorting ramifications that have ensued for Palestine and the Palestinians. In uncovering the full parameters of Washington9s securitization policy, this history also points to the ways in which the PA has consequently been woven into the U.S.-led “global War on Terror.”

美国安全协调与“全球反恐战争”

美国驻耶路撒冷安全协调员 (USSC) 特派团成立于 2005 年,旨在帮助在巴勒斯坦权力机构 (PA) 内实施安全部门改革。华盛顿一心专注于“反恐”,将 USSC 视为支持美国解决巴以冲突的外交和政治努力的辅助机制。尽管颠覆了美国的长期政策并削减了对巴勒斯坦人的所有其他形式的援助,但特朗普政府在“世纪交易”之前一直维持着 USSC。本文借鉴了对负责制定 USSC 干预措施的安全人员的原始采访。它利用他们的见解来强调该使命如何将以色列的政治目标束缚在其职权范围内,以及随之而来的对巴勒斯坦和巴勒斯坦人的扭曲后果。
