Trump Backs Netanyahu: 'Ceasefire' Means More Bombs
Mainstream media dutifully reports that former President Trump supports Netanyahu's latest order to 'hit back' at Hamas after 'ceasefire in tatters.' This narrative, framing Israeli actions as purely reactive, is as predictable as the sunrise. It's a convenient amnesia, ignoring Netanyahu's consistent strategy of escalating violence after brief pauses, used to justify further annexation and
displacement. This isn't a new tactic; Netanyahu has deployed this exact 'hit back' rhetoric repeatedly, from bombing campaigns in 2014 to previous escalations, each time claiming self-defense while expanding settlements. (Perhaps Washington lawmakers, many of whom like Rep. Steny Hoyer who received $37,000 from pro-Israel PACs in 2022 according to OpenSecrets.org, should review these historical
patterns too, rather than rubber-stamping endless aid.) So, another 'ceasefire' unravels, 26 more are dead, and the world is asked to believe this is an organic, unexpected turn of events. How many times must the 'ceasefire in tatters' script play out before the media acknowledges it's a pre-planned act, not a spontaneous failure? Apparently, indefinitely, as long as the framing benefits one side
and politicians keep collecting checks.
