Trump's 'Peace Plan': Trading Palestine for an Egyptian 'Solution'
Mainstream outlets are dusting off headlines about a 'Gaza peace plan,' focusing on Egypt’s critical role. This plan, often disguised as humanitarian aid or border security, conveniently requires Egypt to accommodate a mass exodus of Palestinians (read: forced displacement). Trump's past 'deal of the century' openly floated this idea in 2020, and current reports (like those from The Jerusalem Post
in March 2024 ), confirm discussions around transferring Gazans to Sinai under the guise of an 'international' plan. Egypt, a major recipient of US aid ($1.3 billion in military aid in 2023, according to State.gov ), knows which way the geopolitical wind blows. So, when you hear 'peace plan,' remember it's often a euphemism for liquidating the Palestinian question—not resolving it. It's a land
grab masquerading as a humanitarian initiative, with Cairo potentially as its unwitting, or unwilling, accomplice. How many displaced populations does it take to create 'peace' in the Middle East?
