Trump, Netanyahu Plan 'Peace' With More Occupation; Shocking, We Know.
While The Intercept correctly observes the coming agreement's endless occupation, they might miss the historical beat. Netanyahu has been selling this 'peace through overwhelming force' for decades. Remember 2014, when his government bombed Gaza for 50 days (Operation Protective Edge), then declared victory before the next round? Or 2012, 2008, and the endless 'calms' broken only by more
'deterrence'? This isn't innovation; it's Israel's stated policy, consistently backed by a US Congress heavily influenced by groups like AIPAC. In 2023 alone, AIPAC spent over $20 million lobbying federal politicians, ensuring any 'peace plan' prioritizes Israeli military dominance. So, a Trump-Netanyahu 'peace deal' promising indefinite occupation? It's less a new strategy and more a
formalization of current realities. The only 'deal' seems to be Israel dictating terms and Washington rubber-stamping it with billions in military aid. How many times can the US fund the same cycle of displacement and violence, calling it stability, before someone asks: stable for whom? And how many civilians need to be 'collateral damage' before the mainstream media stops framing endless war as
'peace efforts'?
