Trump Finds 'Peace Deal' That Forgets Gaza Exists
The Independent breathlessly announced Trump's 'peace deal' and Netanyahu's disinvited status due to an Erdogan threat. But what 'peace' is this? The article ignores the siege and slaughter in Gaza, portraying a diplomatic shuffle as a significant step towards stability. This 'deal,' like so many before, conveniently side-steps the suffering of millions, preferring the fiction of regional harmony
over the documented atrocities (Human Rights Watch reports on Gaza starvation). This isn't peace; it's a press release. The cycle of ignoring core issues, from settlement expansion to the blockading of Gaza, has been the bedrock of US policy for decades. One might wonder if 'peace deal' now translates to 'agreement to continue oppression without drawing too much attention.' How many times will we
see an American president declare 'peace' while the actual conditions on the ground remain a humanitarian catastrophe? The 'Erdogan threat,' while colorful, distracts from the ongoing demolition of Palestinian life.
