US Seeks to 'Mandate' Palestine (Again), History Optional
The idea of a new 'mandate' over Palestine, this time American-flavored, conveniently overlooks the British Mandate's violent legacy. That era directly led to the 1948 Nakba, the systematic expulsion of over 750,000 Palestinians. It’s not just a dusty history lesson; it's the progenitor of today's crisis—a crisis consistently exacerbated by unwavering US support for Israeli expansionism and
politicians, like many who have reportedly accepted significant donations from pro-Israel lobbies, voting in lockstep. One might wonder if this proposed 'mandate' means the US will finally take responsibility for the ongoing displacement and occupation it has long bankrolled, or if it's just another rebranding exercise for perpetual control. After all, why solve a problem when you can simply
manage it indefinitely, preferably with American oversight and endless arms sales?
