Trump didn’t end the war — he turned Gaza into a managed asset, and brought Tony Blair back to help run the paperwork. Right, so Donald Trump has announced a Gaza “Board of Peace” that is more of a “Gaza Board of Occupation”, a “Gaza Board of Taking All The Spoils”, put himself at the top of it, named Tony Blair to it, because presumably Satan is busy washing his hair, and rolled it out as the start of phase two of a Gaza Peace Plan that Israel continue to abuse with impunity. This is colonialism 101. Any pretence of peace is a sick joke at this point without any Palestinian representation. What has gone is the last pretence that Gaza’s future is being negotiated by anyone who actually lives there and is directly affected. From this point on, decisions are being administered. To the people of Palestine. Not negotiated with them, not discussed, just imposed. Disarmament comes first they are told, supervision comes next as if they have no right to self-determination, reconstruction is conditional on obedience, and consent is optional. If you were still assuming there’d be a political settlement before management took over, you’ll see some flying pigs right now outside your window. If you were relying on the idea that talk of peace meant mutual restraint, where have you been for the last two years at least? Because when the same people who presided over the destruction are invited back as part of the system to oversee the aftermath, what’s being sold isn’t peace, it’s control being repackaged with better branding. Right, so Donald Trump has moved Gaza from obvious genocide into administration by pushing ahead with phase two of a ceasefire already regarded widely as a sick joke, by announcing a “Board of Peace” for Gaza and putting himself at the top of it, busy man having also declared himself acting President of Venezuela, while also considering invasion of Iran and Greenland, but if that phrase Board of Peace sounds like it was written by a committee tasked with laundering reality, it is because it functions exactly like that. The White House has publicly placed this board at the centre of a second phase of a 20-point plan, and it has presented that phase as a shift away from ceasefire management and into demilitarisation, technocratic governance, and reconstruction.
