As Israel\u2019s unending genocide of Palestinians in Gaza \u201cfades<\/a>\u201d from world headlines amidst its ceaseless violations<\/a> of the Oct 2025 \u2018ceasefire\u2019 deal, Trump is now touting his new Board of Peace<\/em> (BOP) for Gaza on which will sit indicted war criminal<\/a> Benjamin Netanyahu.<\/p>\n

Ali Abunimah of Electronic Intifada has dubbed this new imperial body the \u2018Board of Predators<\/strong>.\u2019 His and Craig Mokhiber\u2019s critiques of Trump\u2019s BOP are linked below.<\/p>\n

But first, to get an idea of how Trump & Co. envision Gaza\u2019s future, check out Jared Kushner\u2019s Masterplan for Redeveloping Gaza<\/strong>, recently unveiled at the World Economic Forum in Davos. UK Column News spotlights the \u201cextraordinary\u201d lies in Kushner\u2019s presentation:<\/p>\n

Hamas to disarm?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jared Kushner seems extremely confident that Hamas will \u201cdisarm,\u201d but as Craig Mokhiber (comments above) reminds us:<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026as <\/em>a matter of international law, the Palestinian people have a right to resist<\/strong> the foreign occupation, colonial domination, and racist regime to which they are subjected, and people around the world have the legal right and the moral duty to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people in this struggle.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

The power and global<\/em> reach <\/em>of the Zionist Israel Lobby<\/strong> must be acknowledged<\/strong>. Thanks to \u2018arm twisting\u2019 by this Lobby (and its Washington accomplice), the 15-member UN Security Council voted to authorize Trump\u2019s Board of Peace (BOP) in Nov 2025. Russia and China \u201cabstained\u201d when they could have delivered a veto. In \u201crewarding the perpetrators<\/em>\u201d of the Gaza genocide, Craig Mokhiber called the UN Resolution on Gaza \u201can atrocity<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hamas and other Palestinian factions, of course, rejected the UNSC resolution. Jeremy Scahill of Drop Site News briefly summarizes their views: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/shorts\/B2Whe11pH0U<\/a><\/p>\n

What about Iran?<\/strong><\/p>\n

While many Arab and Muslim states are now rushing to join Trump\u2019s BOP (e.g. Egypt, Jordan, Gulf kingdoms, Turkey, and Pakistan), Iran was not <\/em>invited and remains strongly committed to the<\/strong> pro-Palestine \u201cResistance Axis\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 an alliance that includes Hezbollah in Lebanon, anti-HTS militias in Syria; Iran-aligned militias in Iraq<\/a> (U.S. still controls<\/a> Iraq\u2019s oil revenue); and Ansarallah Houthi brigades in Yemen, all standing in solidarity with Hamas and other Palestinian factions fighting Israel\u2019s illegal takeover of Palestinian lands, including Gaza, East Jerusalem and the West Bank<\/a> (video).<\/p>\n

BTW: Local populaces throughout West Asia overwhelmingly support the Palestinian cause.<\/p>\n

As Robert Inlakesh writes: \u201c\u2026the real reason Israel seeks to topple the Islamic Republic [of Iran] is because of its role in supporting the Palestinian struggle.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Regime-change intervention in Iran<\/strong>, even if welcomed by Iranian dissidents, would deliver a major blow to that Resistance. Not only would Iran\u2019s vast oil and gas deposits again be up for grabs by foreign investors, but we would likely see an even more theocratic, belligerent, and spy-driven Zionist entity in Jerusalem, plus a new Jewish Third Temple replacing the Al-Aqsa Mosque, all bent on expelling Palestinians while bolstering the Greater Israel<\/em> project <\/strong>reaching into Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and beyond \u2013 and supported by the U.S. taxpayer.<\/p>\n

The alternative? An end to the Apartheid Zionist regime replaced by one of the many proposals for One Democratic State<\/em> dedicated to equal rights for all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
