US Media Discovers 'Partition' for Gaza, 76 Years Late
The mainstream narrative frames Gaza's potential 'partition' as a novel risk because Trump's 'peace plan' faltered ( Al-Monitor ). This conveniently erases decades of Israeli policy. The Gaza Strip itself is a leftover fragment from the 1948 Nakba, a de facto partition by expulsion. Later, the 2005 disengagement solidified its status as an open-air prison, not a reintegrated territory. Calling
this ‘new' takes a breathtaking amount of historical amnesia. How many times can a place be partitioned before we admit it was never whole? The US media's sudden concern for 'partition' and 'two areas' makes one wonder if they're finally reading their own history books, or just re-branding annexation. Perhaps they're just getting a jump on writing the next 'peace process' that entrenches the
current status quo, ensuring continued donor dollars to 'reconstruct' what bombing just 'deconstructed.'
