Even before the bombs had stopped falling the ghouls had profited from the destruction of Gaza were gathering to figure out how they could further profit from its reconstruction. Cur Starmer was there to polish the Emperor’s shoes and compliment him on his fine new clothes, and incidentally see what PFI deals he could fix for British companies. He’s no preparing to emigrate – something that can’t happen soon enough after labelling a ban on a gang of football hooligans as ‘antisemitic’ while denying a visa to an 11-year-old Iranian table tennis champion. I’m afraid he’s losing what few marbles he has left, but he still has plenty of sycophants in his government.

Anyway buying beach front property in Gaza would be better off bathing in the most polluted beach in England after Israelis bombed a sewage treatment facility – it dumped tons of raw effluent into the sea which will take years to clean up.

The US/Israeli plan includes two conditions that they know won’t be fulfilled, leaving them an excuse to restart their aggression:

• Hamas must return several Israeli corpses buried under rubble as a result of Israeli bombing, it simply can’t be done in a limited time frame. A Turkish search and rescue team with heavy equipment from entering Gaza.
• Hamas must surrender all weapons or Trump will take them! This demand would leave Palestinians with no means of defence against Israeli aggression.

Israeli settlements in the West Bank will continue to expand. Ireland is about to pass a law banning all trade with the settlements, but it faces threats to Irish/USA trade relations if it goes ahead.

The award of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize licenses the use of the word ‘peace’ to mean whatever survives the Empire’s purposes, the arms trade will continue for ‘peaceful’ purposes.
