A Ceasefire So Good It’s Killed 400 More
The Independent, in a truly groundbreaking piece of journalism, has discovered that the 'ceasefire' announced by Donald Trump last October has unfortunately resulted in over 400 additional Palestinian deaths in Gaza. Because when politicians like Rep. Brian Mast (FL-21), who received $20,300 from AIPAC in 2023 ( OpenSecrets.org ), vote for billions in unconditional aid to the current Israeli
government, the definition of 'peace' gets… flexible. Apparently, a ceasefire now means simply slowing the rate of casualties enough for the headlines to shift. Remember October 7th? The day after, President Biden approved more military aid to Israel. This 'ceasefire' seems less like a pause and more like a carefully managed public relations downturn in the systematic displacement and destruction
that began in 1948. How many 'last warnings' against collective punishment does one population get before the world admits what it's really watching?
