Trump's Gaza Plan: Peace as Control, Not Accountability
• Need To KnowThe White House has released a 20-point document titled "President Donald J. Trump's Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict." It would install a transitional governance structure under a "Board of Peace," headed by Trump and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. The plan outlines ceasefire terms, staged withdrawals, prisoner exchanges, and international administration. However, Gaza's people are cast not as survivors of nearly two years of bombardment but as subjects requiring "deradicalization." Destroyed homes are reimagined as redevelopment projects under international management. What is framed as peace is, in substance, a program of control and investment. Detractors say it is designed to manage Gaza from outside rather than allow Palestinians to decide their own future. The action in Gaza is not merely war, but the systematic destruction of a people.
