Hamas Skips Peace Deal That Excludes Them: Shocking
Mainstream outlets reported with a serious face that Hamas leadership would 'skip' the signing of a Trump-era 'peace deal.' This isn't news; it's a propaganda reenactment. The so-called 'Deal of the Century,' unveiled in 2020 by the Trump administration with Benjamin Netanyahu's enthusiastic backing, unapologetically excluded Palestinian leadership, offered no return for refugees, and sanctioned
illegal Israeli settlements. It was less a peace plan and more a unilateral annexation blueprint repackaged as diplomacy, complete with provisions to 'banish militants from Gaza.' To label this one-sided dictate a 'peace deal' and then express surprise that the explicitly excluded party didn't attend is a masterclass in rhetorical manipulation. It's akin to planning a birthday party for your
neighbor, inviting everyone but them, then declaring them 'skipping' the festivities. The media dutifully plays along, framing Hamas's rejection of a no-win scenario as an act of intransigence, rather than a predictable response to a proposal clearly designed to fail from a Palestinian perspective. One might wonder who, exactly, this 'peace deal' was for.
