Trump’s “vision” for Gaza isn’t innovation—it’s ethnic cleansing repackaged as real estate. Bulldozing 2.3 million Palestinians into Jordan and Egypt isn’t diplomacy; it’s demographic erasure straight from the 1948 playbook. The Nakba never ended—it’s just getting a facelift with billion-dollar bribes and glass skyscrapers.
Jordan’s king plays along, mouthing empty platitudes about “stability” while his country drowns in refugees. This isn’t peace—it’s a land grab. Gaza isn’t a “diamond” to polish. It’s a graveyard of stolen homes, and Trump’s “Riviera” fantasy is just settler colonialism with a timeshare brochure.
Could have had Biden/Harris….but they bad. Let’s vote for the other guy to teach them a lesson.
Ya I’m bitter
Think the main point was, "let's not, as a population, vote for ANYONE who commits genocide." But noooooo. That was too much to ask.
Then I guess you have no vote option on this one. Just a choice on bad or worse.
First, our entire system is made up. The fact that we've spent centuries entrenching traditions and imaginary institutions around it has no bearing on the fact we could collectively throw it out tomorrow. Second, there were options besides D and R in the election, regardless of whether or not the population collectively chopped its own dick off and decided not to vote for any of them out of paralyzing fear of the other party winning.
