Trump’s Gaza Riviera: Repackaging ethnic cleansing as coastal development
TEHRAN – President Donald Trump’s “Board of Peace” is being presented as a bold plan to rebuild Gaza and secure stability after a devastating war. With a $10 billion U.S. pledge and glossy presentations of futuristic cities, luxury hotels and a “Mediterranean Riviera,” the initiative is designed to project power and optimism. But beneath the branding and spectacle lies a project that advances U.S. and Israeli strategic goals while sidelining Palestinian rights and political reality.

Trump’s ‘Board of Peace’: A colonial blueprint for Gaza’s future
The Resist US-Led War Movement stands in resolute opposition to the Trump administration's attempt to repackage the genocide of the Palestinian people into a financial venture under its newly unveiled "Board of Peace." This so-called board, launched at the Davos summit, is a colonial blueprint for Gaza’s future, a direct assault on international law in an attempt to once again bend the world to the will of US imperialism.

Trump’s ‘Board of Peace’ for Gaza and the monetization of ruins
GOA — Gaza today is not emerging from conflict; it is still being crushed by its consequences. Entire neighbourhoods have been erased, civilians displaced en masse, famine conditions allowed to fester, and allegations of international crimes hang unresolved over the ruins. Any serious discussion of Gaza’s future would begin with a ceasefire, accountability, and the restoration of Palestinian political agency. Trump’s so-called “Board of Peace” begins elsewhere. It begins with money, authority, and control.

The new mandate of recolonizing Gaza: ‘Peace’ boards and the architecture of erasure
GOA — In the lexicon of modern geopolitics, language is rarely used to describe reality; more often, it is used to camouflage it. The emergence of proposals such as a "Gaza Board of Peace" represents a sophisticated linguistic pivot—a transition from the raw violence of military occupation to the sterile, bureaucratic violence of recolonization. By framing the administration of Gaza as a "peace-building" initiative, proponents are attempting to revive the Mandate System of the early 20th century, effectively stripping a population of its agency under the guise of humanitarian necessity.

Trump's ‘Board of Peace’ for Gaza: A blueprint for annexation and erasure
TEHRAN — US President Donald Trump’s announcement of a so‑called ‘Board of Peace’ for Gaza — featuring figures such as Tony Blair, Marco Rubio, and Jared Kushner — does not represent a genuine plan for peace. It is a detailed proposal for the international management of Gaza that ignores the core realities of the conflict and the people it claims to help. When scrutinized, the plan reveals itself as an attempt to impose a solution that serves the interests of the United States, Israel, and their allies, while sidelining Palestinian rights and agency.
