SIR Tony Blair's £300million Gaza peace plan is revealed today showing his administration gets a 'war room', elite bodyguards and a police force to oversee the Strip.

The former PM's proposal, obtained by the Mail, would mark his most significant intervention in the Middle East since sending British troops to war with Iraq.

Sir Tony has reportedly put himself forward to be chairman of the Gaza International Transitional Authority (GITA), a body proposed by the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change.

The administration would rule initially from nearby El-Arish in Egypt and have 'policy hubs' in Amman and Cairo, scaling up to be fully operational within the Strip by year three.

In his role, Sir Tony would lead Gaza's international diplomacy on the world stage, co-ordinate security with Israel, Egypt and the US, and serve as 'the escalation point' on sensitive decisions.

Under the blueprint, GITA’s chairman commands a 'Strategic Secretariat' of 25 aides anchoring a crisis 'war room' for rapid analysis, co-ordination and messaging.

Security would be provided by a new Executive Protection Unit (EPU) tasked with 'close protection' for Sir Tony, fellow leaders and visiting VIPs.

Staffed by 'elite personnel from Arab and international contributors' it is trained for 'rapid extraction' and 'incident response readiness' and would escort foreign envoys.

The EPU must be 'politically balanced to reflect neutrality, professionalism and legitimacy'.

It would work in conjunction with a Palestinian Civil Police force and an International Stabilisation Force (ISF), all co-ordinated through a Joint Security Coordination Centre (JSCC).

Police would be 'nationally recruited' and 'professionally vetted' and be tasked with maintaining public order, investigating crimes and protecting civilians within Gaza.

Meanwhile the ISF - a multinational force - would guard borders, stop weapons smuggling, deter militant resurgence with targeted counter terror raids, and protect reconstruction projects.

It is hoped the force might provide the relevant security guarantees that satisfy Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu that he could withdraw the IDF - a key sticking point in peace talks.

Sir Tony would also have a 'strategic secretariat' underneath him - a 'high capacity team' of up to 25 people who anchor a strategic 'war room' for 'rapid analysis, co-ordination, and messaging'.

They would serve ' as the Chairman’s platform for diplomacy, donor relations, and political situational awareness.'

GITA would have an annual budget of £67million in its first year, rising to £99million in year two and £122million by the third year. It brings the total spend to nearly £300million before the massive costs of rebuilding the territory are taken into account.

Donald Trump is reportedly sold on the proposal and it is reflected in his administration's 21-point Gaza peace plan and it has the backing of some key Arab states while Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has not ruled it out.

But Britain's historic role administering the region last Century combined with Sir Tony's invasion of Iraq and long-standing backing of Israel mean it will be harder to persuade Palestinians.

The Palestinian Authority, which exercises civil control over parts of the West Bank, also wants to oversee the Strip itself despite being unpopular with Gazans.

Mustafa Barghouti, general secretary of the Palestinian National Initiative, told the Washington Post: 'We’ve been under British colonialism already.

'He has a negative reputation here. If you mention Tony Blair, the first thing people mention is the Iraq War.'

GITA's top leadership would have up to 10 members including the chair who are nominated by contributing states with the process co-ordinated by the UN.

Its board must include at least one qualified Palestinian representative, a senior UN official, and leading international figures with executive and financial expertise.

The proposal insists there must be a 'strong representation of Muslim members to ensure regional legitimacy and cultural credibility'.

GITA will work in close co-ordination with the Palestinian Authority (PA), the government that exercises civil control over parts of the West Bank.

It states their decisions should be 'aligned' and 'consistent with the eventual unifying of all the Palestinian territory under the PA'. 

The Tony Blair Institute for Global Change was contacted for comment.
