I believe what many are saying about Trump, that his prating on and on about invasion, expansion, etc., including in Gaza, is to distract from his systemic dismantling of U.S. democracy. Trump is much more focussed on ethnic cleansing in the U.S. than in the Middle East. His talk about Gaza has the added benefit for him of reestablishing the bonds between him and Netanyahu. I thought the wry smile on Netanyahu’s face when Trump was announcing his “vision” for Gaza was revealing. If distraction is indeed Trump’s ploy, the media, in the U.S. and internationally, have certainly taken the bait. Randy
