These are not easy moments.
To help prepare to write this chronicle, I was forced to listen to the winding reflections of US President Donald Trump during a press conference at the White House on Tuesday while a war criminal who was smiling. , Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was standing closely by nodding in Happy Happy Approution.
Perhaps like you, a certain number of emotions have raised in me when I watched a charlatan calculating suggest that America “will have” Gaza and that, for their own good, more than two million Palestinians would be expelled from Their ancestral homeland to make room, presumably, for a horde of fanatical Israeli settlers and voracious real estate magnates, including Trump’s son -in -law, Jared Kushner.
Maybe like you, I got angry.
I got angry with the audacity of a winner who knows nothing who knows nothing about Palestine or its history but claims to have the best interest of the Palestinians at Mummiif Heart while he intends to ” Clean »Gaza and, in fact, erase them and their history.
But, unlike so many other Callow commentators, I am not shocked by this singularly sinister plan made publicly publicly by Trump to design what is equivalent to his serious solution to the Palestinian problem.
“The United States will take control of the Gaza Strip,” said Trump. “We have it … you (Palestinians) just can’t go back.”
There has been nothing to “go back” for 15 months, Israel has committed a genocide in Gaza. More than 60,000 Palestinians, for most infants, children and women, have been killed. More than 100,000 people have been injured – in mind, body and mind – often seriously.
Now Israel is busy shaving occupied West Bank. Netanyahu and Rancid Company are also determined to make a large part of dust and memory – with the enthusiastic complicity of the rooted political and media establishment of America.
This free brutality has not disturbed the allies who exciting the Atroes of Israel or that many Israelis – such is their decisive contempt for the grotesque number and the way of Palestinian death.
I warned in chronicle after Column that it has always been the perverted end game: to ethnically clean the Palestinians of Gaza and the West Bank and replace them with a series of seaside resorts.
This has been the final game since 1948. And a succession of democratic and republican presidents enabled Israel – with a tap of arms and reliable diplomatic coverage – to realize its dream of getting rid of Gaza and the Palestinian West Bank once and resolutely for all.
It was a dream shared by the decrepit and recently left the American commander -in -chief, Joe Biden, his Secretary of State in Double, Antony Blinken, and the Democratic Party of Craven “Elites” who sired the interest in a concoction “To two states” as a ghost as they rearmed Israel to the handle and voted – again and again – from ceasefire resolutions to the United Nations Security Council.
Biden and Blinken stood with Netanyahu as obedient failures while Israel evacuated his lust against the largely defenseless Palestinians and Gaza has been reduced to uninhabitable decors of the dystopian type.
In words and acts, Blinken and Biden established the flagrant scene of Trump’s denied gambit. The only difference and instructive is the current occupant of administration of Israel from the Oval Office said that the part of the carefully hidden acute language.
I doubt that the crowd Israel-Is-Always-Above-Réproach that populates CNN, MSNBC and the New York Times opinion page will remember that senior officials from the Biden administration also negotiated with Israel to empty Gaza of the Palestinians but has reached a palatable and “civil security” euphemism.
I also doubt that the familiar list of deferential Western writers and experts that pinch the Israeli flag on their X handles in an act of childish solidarity will have the decency to finally admit that the blatant meaning of what the Israeli axis has been done, And aims to do, the Palestinians constitute an ethnic genocidal cleaning – not as a rhetorical hug, but as an established question of international law.
They will of course never move away from their indisputable defense of Israel – regardless of the horrors or the outrages that it perpetuates or envisages.
Instead, the pretended progressives are busy pointing a finger of sufficient blame against “uncommon” voters for refusing to support the missing Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris.
These deceived supporters have apparently forgotten that the former vice-president is also responsible for wholesale death and the destruction of the Palestinians and Gaza as his ex-factor.
These unbearable amnesiacs are better silent.
Meanwhile, Trump’s Trump’s remarks in Trump’s cleaning revealed that stages two and three of the so-called cease-fire agreement that defined the conditions for the possible reconstruction of Gaza are a cynical farce.
Protected by a suspicion of humanity, Trump and the racist cabinet of Israel will ensure that Gaza will not be rebuilt. Working together, they will guarantee that the Palestinians remain exposed and vulnerable to hard and ruthless elements, deprivation, illness and need.
They know that time and endless and endless occupation are on their side.
Soon, the Palestinian mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, daughters and son will face an atrocious dilemma despite their moving and worthy insistence that “we will not be moved”.
For some, no houses, no jobs, no schools, no hospitals, no libraries, no playgrounds, will inevitably be translated into any hope.
In this terrible context, the only option for many Palestinians can unfortunately be to leave Gaza and the West Bank to try to discover a new life with a promise and tangible possibilities.
It is the undeniable and insidious aspect of Trump’s crazy ideas – to force the Palestinians to make a choice: stay in Gaza and succumb to the despair of resignation and despair or, reluctantly, to seek refuge in foreign places near and far that many others have done.
In the end, all the columns that will be written devoted to Trump’s obscene diagram are grey for the ephemeral factory.
The fate and the future of Palestine will be resolved by the Palestinians in a quiet conversation in the middle of the ruins formulated by the “international community” which, for generations, has condemned and abandoned them to rabid wolves.
