Let’s stop kidding ourselves

If in 2025 there are still people who trust the United States of America and hope that something good will come from it, then it means there is still a lot of work to be done.

Let’s stop kidding ourselves: what good has ever come from a country founded by criminals rejected by their homeland, who violently colonized a land that was not theirs, transforming it into a land of violence, abuse, corruption, invaded by the worst sects and immorality, which, as soon as it could, began to export its model to the rest of the world through wars?

How can we believe that the US will come up with a peace plan for Palestine and the Middle East?

Beyond the polemical tone, let’s try to reason logically and rationally.

The first fact that we can objectively assume is that none of the peace and ceasefire agreements have ever been respected in Palestine, so much so that since 1929 more than fifteen have been signed, demonstrating that one or two were not enough and that the conflict continually restarts. This indicates that the conflict cannot be resolved through international regulatory interventions, because wars, like it or not, go beyond the law.

In this regard, it is now clear even to the least experienced that international law has been repeatedly bent to suit the interests and favors of those in power, to the detriment of the weakest, manipulating it both in its application and interpretation according to convenience. International law is no guarantee of anything and protects nothing. In the name of international law, acts of oppression have been committed, and by virtue of international law, the presence or absence of a full-blown, announced, declared, and confirmed genocide has even been made debatable and subject to a vote, as if the death of thousands of people were a matter of democracy and not a fact, a crime against humanity that is self-evident and asserts itself for what it is.

Thirdly, the spectacularization of this peace agreement is what makes it so powerful and interesting, just as the massacre itself was spectacularized for the first time. The tragedy was echoed thanks to social media, and all the networks, in a unified manner, broadcast the horror, elevating it to entertainment. Once the daily injection of obscenity was over, it was necessary to move on to something equally spectacular, and since stories with happy endings attract more viewers than those with sad endings, the staging of ‘peace’ was put together, a word for which the West is very good at spending resources.

Everyone, absolutely everyone, except the Palestinians, was invited to the peace table. Those directly involved were not deemed worthy by the Western clique. This alone should make us think a lot about what is really happening, and not what the media wants us to see.

Donald Trump is the showman of the situation. In the end, with a superb strategy, the American president managed to regain credibility in the eyes of millions of people, ending up as a hero or a saint, so that they forget that he himself, with his government and his country, is the primary sponsor of the Palestinian genocide and many other wars and crimes (shall we have a chat about the list of his dear friend Epstein, Mr. President?).

The absurdity is precisely this: evil is passed off as good. The US comes out with a redeemed image. Once again, neocon messianism does not fail and deals a deadly blow to the minds of Western viewers, ready to accept any nonsense that comes out of American studios as mother’s milk.

Trump was greeted at the Knesset, the Israeli parliament, with a standing ovation worthy of the one Netanyahu received in Washington. The two understand each other and fit together perfectly. In his long speech, Trump had time to say just about anything, celebrating his political victories with such childish self-praise that it was indigestible even for the other Western and Asian leaders present. Because yes, of course there was the array of admirers/servants ready to applaud every sentence uttered by the blond-haired man, all rigorously selected for their devotion and ready to take their five minutes on stage to say their words of congratulations, competing to see who could make the best impression in front of their idol. An idol who wasted no time in reminding everyone of his love for Israel, the importance of converting to Zionist Judaism, first himself and then his daughter, and of supporting Israel as if it were his own life, whatever the cost—and the cost, even in economic terms, is indeed high. He even asked for forgiveness for Netanyahu, recounting his courageous deeds.

Trump did not miss the opportunity to humiliate and embarrass the leaders he likes least, confirming his gangster style, beyond any political and diplomatic decorum, as in the case of British Prime Minister Starmer, who was called on stage and then immediately seated without being allowed to speak. His rhetoric was made up of self-referential slogans that subtly targeted the least welcome people in the room. The true style of an elementary school bully, only with many billions in the bank.

They call it peace, but it’s war

We witnessed a macabre dance in which the Western elites celebrated, in fact, the accomplishment of their victory, even where they did not really win. What are they celebrating then? Simple: as they have always done, they are celebrating what they will do next. Guess what that is? War. Or rather, the war that goes by the name of ‘20-point peace plan’, where it is written in black and white that Palestine will become a five-star resort for the luxuries of the West and, of course, the untouchable holy Israel, to whom their god promised that land at the price of the blood of all its legitimate inhabitants.

There will be no peace. What they call peace is nothing more than an interlude between one massacre and another. Even with the possible fall of Netanyahu and his trial for crimes against humanity, the problem of Zionism remains, and it is America, a Zionist even before Zionism existed as a political movement, that is its primary supporter, just as it is America that holds the peace plan in its hands. Already in early November, after these few weeks of truce, it will be possible to observe the resumption of hostilities.

It is clear that the agreement involves negotiations and under-the-table guarantees that also benefit other actors in the region and that will have to be finalized over the coming months. The lives of Palestinians are apparently worth a lot because they become bargaining chips for foreign rulers.

Negative premises cannot lead to a positive outcome. If agreements have been respected to date, what can make us believe, in the absence of objective positive data, that this time the agreement will hold? Is it really not clear that this operation was fundamental precisely to deal a powerful blow to Palestine and the Axis of Resistance?

How much more blood of Palestinians, who are Christians, Muslims, and Jews, must be shed? How much longer must such a crime be committed as a human sacrifice before the other great powers intervene to say “enough!” to such horror?

From America First to Israel First: there will be no peace!
