Global Research Fundraising: Stop the Pentagon’s Ides of March

***

There is an area in the Middle East that has the potential to become a valuable piece of real estate. That area happens to be in the Gaza Strip in close proximity to the beach according to Jared Kushner, Trump’s former advisor and son-in-law who is married to his daughter, Ivanka was recently interviewed at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government which supports a program that is part of the Middle East Initiative. 

According to Kushner, the Gaza Strip’s waterfront property that borders the Mediterranean Sea can be considered prime real estate in the future. Kushner was asked by Professor Tarek Masoud who hosted the event,

“I mean you know obviously the reason they’re not you know for example the reason the Egyptians don’t want to take the refugees in addition to of course there being the domestic unrest that could result or the instability that could result but also there are real fears on the part of Arabs and I’m sure you talked to a lot of them who think once Gazans leave Gaza, Netanyahu is never going to let them back in”,

his response:

I am not sure there is much left of Gaza at this point. So, if you think about even the construct, Gaza was not really a historical precedent. It was the result of a war. You had tribes in different places and then Gaza became a thing. Egypt used to run it and then over time different governments came in different ways so you have another War you know usually when Wars happen, you know borders are changed historically over time and so my sense is I would say how do we deal with the terror threat that is there so that it cannot be a threat to Israel or to Egypt right, I think that both sides are spending a fortune on Military I think neither side really wants to have you know a terrorist organization enclaved right between them and Gaza’s waterfront property it could be very valuable to, uh if people would focus on kind of building up, you know livelihoods you think about all the money that’s gone into this tunnel Network and into all the Munitions if that would have gone into education or innovation, what could have been done and so I think that it’s a little bit of an unfortunate situation there but I think from Israel’s perspective I would do my best to move the people out and then clean it up but I don’t think that Israel has stated that they don’t want the people to move back there afterwards

In the world according to Kushner, Palestine never really existed, it is fictional, it became “a thing.” Kushner was appointed by Trump to manage the US government’s policy on the Israel-Palestine ongoing conflict paving the way for the “Abraham Accords,” a so-called peace deal between four Arab countries and Israel.

The accords was supposed to prevent Israel’s expansionist policies in Palestinian territories but that did not happen.  With Israel’s war on Gaza, its continued attacks on Syria and tensions rising on its northern borders with Hezbollah, it seems that the Abraham Accords is a complete failure.  In fact, peace was never an option for Israel, ethnic cleansing and stealing Palestinian land was and still is on their agenda.  

Remember, one of the first members of Kushner’s team for the “peace plan” was David Friedman, a defender of Israel and its war crimes is an avid Zionist and lawyer who supports Jewish settler movements in the occupied territories. As President, Donald Trump’s actions against the Palestinians showed the world his true colors when he appointed Friedman to become the US ambassador to Israel which would have made peace in the Middle East practically impossible. We must add that Trump also moved the US embassy to Jerusalem and cut funding for Palestinian refugees who are victims of Israeli war crimes.  Palestinians across the board rejected Trump’s Abraham Accords from the start and rightly so.

What Kushner said about Gaza’s land and what can be done about it is clear, get rid of the Palestinians and build new waterfront properties. Perhaps in Jared Kushner’s world, he and probably his father-in law who might occupy the White House once again, envision a future Trump tower to be built on the Gaza Strip as the genocide of the Palestinian people continues. What a sick world these people are living in.
