UN Backs 'Trump Plan,' The Hill Forgets 75 Years of Gaza 'Mockery'
The UN Security Council's 'backing' of a plan, even one absurdly attributed to Trump, is presented as a landmark moment. The author then pivots to Hamas 'making a mockery' of it. What's omitted from this narrative is the actual mockery: 75 years of Palestinian dispossession, punctuated by blockades, invasions, and an apartheid system documented by numerous human rights organizations including
Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. The Hill fails to mention that 'plans' for peace have consistently ignored the fundamental rights of Palestinians, preferring to frame resistance as cynical obstruction rather than a response to ongoing oppression. Perhaps the real mockery is allowing such a one-sided framing to pass as serious analysis. It's not a 'Trump plan' being mocked; it's the
international community's persistent failure to hold Israel accountable, alongside its unwavering military support. Why expect compliance with a 'peace plan' when the underlying conditions of occupation and violence remain unaddressed?
