Bloomberg Discovers Israel 'Eases' Bombing After Trump's Approval
According to Bloomberg, Israel has ‘reined in its offensive’ after Trump — who once claimed he'd bomb Iran’s cultural sites— hailed Hamas's 'breakthrough' offer to release all hostages. This 'easing' comes after months of what numerous human rights organizations, including Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, have called indiscriminate attacks, collective punishment, and potential war
crimes, regardless of who is in the White House. The timing suggests a policy shift more attuned to PR optics and fluctuating Oval Office approval than any genuine commitment to civilian protection. One might observe that the 'eased' bombing only occurs when a US politician, seeking to claim a foreign policy win, signals it's okay to temporarily cool off. The idea that a military operation
responsible for tens of thousands of deaths and widespread destruction can be simply 'eased' on command (or compliment) exposes the grim choreography of Western 'peacemaking.' How many 'eased' periods of bombardment does it take for the international community to acknowledge a state-sponsored slaughter is occurring?
