Our world is being shaped by powers and influences with extraordinary ability to decide who lives and dies. It's time to expose and end those powers.

President Trump's proposal to find a more humane solution for the remaining Palestinian population in Gaza has elicited an unprecedented level of support from the international community as alternative to Prime Minister Netanyahu's predisposition to clear the area completely of Palestinians through any means, replacing the local population with Israelis. It is becoming increasingly clear to President Trump that a majority of thoughtful Americans see the disproportionate suffering by the Palestinian civilian population in Gaza and favor a solution that recognizes their right to survive and live in peace on the limited space left to them after 78 years of Israeli occupation of their Palestinian homeland.
The Trump solution involves many billions of dollars in redevelopment funding to restore no only housing, but also commercial, tourist and industrial opportunities for the Palestinian people to develop their own economy. With one of the largest natural gas reserves in the Mediterranean right off shore, Gaza has a resource that could provide jobs and ongoing economic opportunity for the civilian population and also a means to attract further investment from outside sources. However; the Trump solution does not seem to suggest that Gaza remain in the hands of the Palestinians, it suggests that the Palestinians be relocated to the Sinai or elsewhere in the Arab world. The enormous gas reserves would then fall into the hands of the Israeli government, and Netanyahu's Zionist vision of Israel as a completely homogenous nation will be one step closer to reality, with only Palestinian lands in the West Bank left to conquer and occupy. This begs the question: is Trump proposing this to provide an equitable solution for Palestinians, or to placate the Zionist hegemony controlling Congress and international finance? Is President Trump in charge of of our foreign policy, or is international Zionism the tail wagging the dog?
If the right to exist and raise your family in peace, and the American concept of private property are at all integral to our notion of equity, why would we presuppose relocation of an indigenous population from their historical lands as equitable? Didn't we already try and fail that experiment with Native Americans? Don't get me wrong; the right to buy and sell land or any other possession, when voluntary is as American as apple pie, but forcing someone to sell or relinquish their property rights through coercion or physical threat is both immoral and illegal according to national and international law…………especially when the coercing party gains like a fat hog. Historical evidence is clear; Hamas was created by Mossad to provide a foil to Palestinian unity during the first decade of Israeli nationhood and have been essential justification for IDF attacks against civilian targets for “shielding” Hamas or Hezbollah insurgents.
Since the creation of the Federal Reserve in 1913, there always seems to be justification for American political “solutions” that lead us to a consistent outcome; drawing Americans into wars and international intrigues that cost us dearly in both blood and treasure. We are in the midst of a new “war on terror” with Iran, purportedly to end their development of weapons capable of firing nuclear warheads at Tel Aviv, Brussels, and New York City. Hadn't we just sent “the most incredible arsenal of bunker buster bombs the world has ever seen” into Iran last summer to end that threat? And weren't we assured by President Trump and Defense Secretary Hegseth that our mission was 100% successful; destroying Iran's nuclear weapons aspirations for years? We are told that Iran and their radicalized theocratic government leaders have become the number 1 sponsor of international terrorism and the greatest enemy of Israel. I don't doubt that, but how much of that was preventable if we had done things differently and not taken sides from the beginning? Weren't Iran and Iraq both allies of the U.S. and stabilizing forces in the Middle East until we turned our back on the Shah under President Carter that consequently enabled the Mullahs, and weren't Bush #1 and 2 the Presidents that decided Hussein had to go…………even though he kept the Iranian Theocracy at bay? In the Middle East we have done very little right since the birth of the UN, globalism, the nation of Israel, the CIA and their illegitimate scion; Mossad.
Our “war on terror” and the destruction of the Saddam Hussein regime accomplished little beyond the permanent destabilization of the Middle East, a 20 + year occupation resulting in millions of new enemies for “the Great Satan”, America's loss of international prestige, and an enormous cost in human lives and national treasure. In fact, just about every nation building project and effort at regime change we have done in the Middle East or elsewhere around the world for the past 80 years has been disastrous for American self interest. How could we possibly think that somehow this time will be different? Our Founding Fathers were brilliant to suggest that we should have fair and open trade relations with all nations, and entangling alliances with none. That message rings more true than ever before.
That being said; I want to believe that President Trump is serious in his efforts to end war in the Middle East and provide opportunity and safety for Palestinians currently trapped in the Gaza hell-hole. However, I wonder if a major relocation plan will end the resentment that 80 years of attack, demonization, and suppression by the IDF have wrought upon the Palestinian people? I wonder if the Zionist leadership will ever be content until they own and control everything from the Nile to the Euphrates, to the exclusion of all other peoples and religions, as Netanyahu has postulated more than once? That being said; will there ever be peace in the world until we all learn from our past mistakes and quit trying to bully, buy, coerce, or demand friendship and cooperation from others.
The current unrestricted warfare campaign to destroy Iranian leadership and all offensive and defensive weapons systems in Iran by Israel and the United States is going according to plan……..at least as reported by mainstream media. The question becomes; will this make America, Israel, the Middle East, Europe and the rest of the world more or less safe if their objectives are accomplished?
Will this weaken or strengthen America's image as the last, best hope for freedom loving people around the world? I understand that President Trump has more than 80 years of incredibly corrupt and inept U.S. foreign policy to reverse from prior administrations, but wouldn't a racheting down of military committments and entangling alliances be a great place to start?
Wouldn't it be better to rebuild our stockpiles of military equipment, expend less of it, balance our budget and concentrate on strengthening the American economy for legal American citizens?
All people should have the right to live without fear for the lives of their families regardless their: skin color, religious beliefs, social status or nationality. Constant conflict has become normative behavior for a global elite that thrive on control and genocide to stay in power. It's time to return political control to average people who just want to live & raise their children in peace and love their neighbors. Genocide is wrong no matter whom is defining friend or foe.
