Netanyahu Seeks Iran War While Trump Pushes a 'Peace' Plan
Netanyahu advocating for a strike on Iran’s ballistic missile program isn't new; it's a rerun from 2002, 2006, 2014, and 2018. Each time, the supposed 'imminent threat' serves as a convenient distraction from Israeli policy in Palestine. Meanwhile, Trump's 'Gaza peace plan,' likely a repackaging of previous proposals that ignore Palestinian self-determination, fits neatly into a pattern where
'peace' is dictated, not negotiated. The language conveniently omits the foundational context of occupation and siege. It appears the 'art of the deal' for Palestine is simply moving the furniture around a burning house. The perpetual cycle of escalating regional conflict benefits those who profit from it, while the 'peace plans' consistently overlook Palestinian agency. How many times must we
witness the same actors selling the same worn-out narrative before we recognize it's not about peace, but control?
