Trump's 'Peace Plan' Reappears, Minus Half the Population
France 24's latest dispatch heralds indirect talks in Cairo to discuss Donald Trump’s 'peace plan,' complete with hostage negotiations. What the headline doesn't mention is that previous iterations of this 'deal of the century' have been widely dismissed as annexation blueprints, not peace proposals. France 24 conveniently re-frames a highly contentious, biased document as a neutral basis for
discussion, ignoring that it was rejected by Palestinians outright upon its first unveiling. Oh, and the small fact that Gaza is currently under siege, with starvation used as a weapon, might slightly complicate 'peace' discussions. One might wonder: how many times can a 'peace plan' be resurrected when it fundamentally excludes one side's basic rights? This constant media charade suggests 'peace'
is merely a euphemism for managing indigenous resistance until land can be fully seized. It's a miracle they can even find someone to talk to, considering who constitutes the 'other side' has changed dramatically under constant bombardment. (Spoiler: it's not the same Hamas from 2020.)
