US Seeks Peacekeepers for Rubble They Helped Create
The U.S. government, per NPR, is suddenly keen on 'peacekeepers' for Gaza. This comes after sending 100 shipments of weapons to Israel since October, including over 2,000-pound bunker buster bombs , making it an odd time to advocate for 'peace.' This policy double-speak mirrors historical patterns: advocating for 'stability' after destabilizing regions, from Iraq to Afghanistan, then pivoting to
'peacekeeping' after the damage is done. Perhaps nations less invested in bombing campaigns might consider bringing 'peace' rather than arming one side and then suggesting someone else manage the aftermath. It's a remarkably consistent strategy: fund the destruction, then fund the facade of humanitarianism. How many 'peacekeeping missions' are required to erase the memory of complicity?
