Phony US Plan to Rebuild Gaza

Phony US Plan to Rebuild Gaza

by Stephen Lendman (stephenlendman.org - Home - Stephen Lendman)

An alleged Trump regime plan to rebuild Gaza, spearheaded by Zionist ideologues Jared Kushner and Jason Greenblatt, doesn't exist except in name only.

US regimes focus on mass slaughter and destruction, not humanitarian aid and reconstruction - unless profits for corporate predators are involved.

US-led forces raped and destroyed Mosul on the phony pretext of combatting ISIS Washington supports. The campaign ended in July 2017 - most of Iraq's former second largest city turned to rubble.

Pleas by residents for reconstruction help went unanswered for the past year - none forthcoming from Washington and its imperial partners in high crimes.

The same is true about Raqqa, Syria. US-led terror-bombing raped and destroyed the city, countless thousands massacred as in Mosul. The stench of rotting corpses beneath rubble permeates both cities.

Nine months after fighting ended, Raqqa remains shattered. The Trump regime refuses to provide reconstruction aid. Little or none is forthcoming so far.

Gaza is the world's largest open-air prison, two million residents held hostage to Israeli viciousness, suffocating blockade in place for 11 years, the world community doing nothing to end the suffering of its beleaguered people.

The Trump regime pretends to have in place a reconstruction plan for the Strip. Like Israel, it wants Palestinians divided and self-determination the way it's supposed to be prevented, Israel maintaining control.

A so-called Kushner/Greenblatt plan to rebuild Gaza is pure illusion. Tackling a dire humanitarian crisis anywhere isn't in the vocabulary of these and other Trump regime extremists.

In response to ongoing Israeli state terror on the Strip, falsely blamed on Hamas, Kushner and Greenblatt threatened to abandon the illusion of a Gaza reconstruction plan. 

A real one doesn't exist, not now, earlier, or intended ahead - only continued isolation and brutalization of long-suffering Gazans.

The infamous Ziofascist duo blamed Hamas for Israeli high crimes, for deplorable conditions enforced on two million Gazans with no relief in prospect - not by Washington, the Jewish state or international community.

On Sunday, Kushner disgracefully turned truth on its head, saying "Hamas has driven Gaza to a state of desperation," adding: "Provocations will not be rewarded with aid."

Kushner and Greenblatt are Ziofascist ideologues, militantly opposed to Palestinian rights, supporting whatever Israel does, no matter how harsh and unlawful.

Trump's so-called "deal of the century" peace plan is another mirage. His Jerusalem declaration and one-sided support for Israel against fundamental Palestinian rights killed it.

Decades of occupation harshness with no prospect for ending it undermines any chance for conflict resolution.

So does a longstanding US/Israeli alliance against fundamental Palestinian rights - the Trump regime more hostile to them than any of his predecessors while pretending otherwise.
