Kushner’s Gaza Dream Come True

The United Nations Security Counsel passed a resolution that Trump may create a military force to control Gaza. That resolution directly violates UN Charter article 25 and is in opposition to it, and to the principles of the UN Universal Declaration for Human Rights.

An ‘international force’ will not allow for “humanitarian aid” to enter Gaza, or for Gaza’s reconstruction and rebuilding — except as property developers Trump/Kushner see fit. Lame duck or not, no doubt Trump will consider this resolution to be a huge win for his and Jared Kushner’s agenda. Thus Jared Kushner will have far more than an Albanian island to notch his gun with.
It’s somewhat surprising that Russia and China allowed this resolution to pass, by abstaining. Especially for Russia. Because if an “international force” does deploy in Gaza, Trump will use that eventuality as a basis to argue for the same deployment in Country-404. Did the Russian leadership contemplate that? I’d say doubtful.
The irony is astounding. Of the 140+ resolutions passed versus Israel with regard to its occupation of Palestine, Israel has not ever complied with a single one. Most notably. Israel has not ever complied with conditions set for its member nation status in the United Nations.
Once again, Palestinian people are subject to imperial hubris, rule, and domination. A now- fading recognition of the murderous horrors done to them by fascist aggressors, many of whom call themselves “Jews” – is indeed fading in the public consciousness, which exposes a true murderous darkness at the heart of our civilizational whole.
Of course this development did not occur within a vacuum. The Fatah-led Palestinian Authority and other Palestinian factions have long been pressured by Israeli/US financial influence — and internal corruption — to cave to Western demands, regarding Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territory.
But several Palestinian factions have resisted decades-long western corruption. Most notably Hamas. Hamas provided educational, medical and support resources within Gaza, and is dedicated to the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination. But for anyone in the west to suggest or acknowledge that truth will only result in accusations of antisemitism, by the world’s perpetual victims… and the morally corrupt.
As for Trump, even though a ‘lame duck’, the Crooks affair at Butler – likely with the complicity of the FBI – taught Trump that he is as expendable as JFK, and Trump must 1000% tow the trillionaire line — or else.
