  • We wouldn’t be having this conversation if it were an unmitigated genocide because every Palestinian would already be dead.

    Israel, courtesy of the US, has enough firepower to wipe out the West Bank and Gaza several times over. Yet it never happens. Why?

    Perhaps, Netanyahu and his ilk have something to gain by keeping the conflict active.

    But ultimately they want to take the territory. They dream of making Gaza, specifically its beach, a tourist destination.

    Trump is going to help make all of this happen sooner than it would have. He wants peace in the Middle East to be one of his legacies and the quickest means to that end is to give Israel what it wants.





  • On Monday, Trump signed an executive order nullifying sanctions targeting dozens of far-right Israeli settlers and organizations accused of violence against Palestinians. The Treasury Department officially terminated these sanctions on Friday, unblocking their US assets and financial access. This action reverses Biden’s February 2024 executive order that had sanctioned Israeli settlers for violent actions in the West Bank, signaling a significant shift in US policy towards Israeli settlements.

    In his interview with Time magazine:

    Do you still support a two-state solution?

    I support whatever solution we can do to get peace. There are other ideas other than two state, but I support whatever, whatever is necessary to get not just peace, a lasting peace. It can’t go on where every five years you end up in tragedy. There are other alternatives.

    Today’s headline: Trump says he wants to ‘clean out’ Gaza and move Palestinians to Jordan and Egypt

    All in one week. No difference, right?
