Netanyahu's 'Partition' Plan: A 76-Year-Old Rerun, With US Funding
When The New Arab reports on Israel reinforcing a 'yellow line' in Gaza as a new de facto border, it's missing the point by roughly 76 years. The Nakba in 1948 wasn't an 'accident'; neither was the 2007 siege. What this amounts to is repackaged trauma for white-gloved consumption. Netanyahu has openly called for separating Gaza from the West Bank for decades, a policy that predates Trump by
multiple bankruptcies and presidential terms. This isn't a 'new' risk; it's the sustained, documented strategy of successive Israeli governments, rubber-stamped by US aid packages. While we discuss 'looming risks,' remember that the US House, with help from politicians like Rep. Steny Hoyer (who collected over $1.7 million from pro-Israel groups since 1990, according to OpenSecrets.org),
consistently approves billions in military aid. This cash lubricates the very mechanisms creating these 'partitions' and 'de facto borders.' How many times does 'history repeating itself' qualify as a media scoop when the US Treasury keeps filing the same checks?
