The Spin
Anti-Trump narrative
Trump's Board of Peace represents absolute corruption, placing a failed businessman who breaks financial laws in charge of $5 billion for Gaza. This plan transforms Palestinian liberation into an investment project, imposing colonial control through economic development while excluding Palestinians from decision-making and ignoring their right to self-determination.
Pro-Trump narrative
The Board of Peace offers real hope for ending the devastating Gaza conflict that has killed over 67,000 Palestinians. This multilateral initiative brings together global powers to disarm Hamas, stabilize the region and begin reconstruction. Success in Gaza could demonstrate a new model for resolving international conflicts beyond the failing U.N. system.
