Gaza 'Ceasefire' Unveils New Favorite Local Gangs
Al-Monitor reports that Gaza's 'ceasefire' quickly devolved into clashes between armed groups, some 'backed by Israel,' others loyal to Hamas, implying a spontaneous eruption of internal strife. This framing neatly sidesteps the relentless siege, economic strangulation, and consistent 'mowing the lawn' operations that ensure Gaza remains a perpetually destabilized, fractured territory. One might
wonder how many 'criminal gangs' appear after decades of blockades. The conveniently omitted history includes a 17-year blockade by Israel (Human Rights Watch, 2010), regular military incursions, and the deliberate weakening of any viable governance. To then report on 'clashes' between 'criminal gangs' as if it's an organic development of a healthy society, not a predictable symptom of external
pressure, is masterful gaslighting. It’s almost as if some prefer a 'managed' chaos to real self-determination.
