"The United States will establish a dialogue between Israel and the Palestinians to agree on a political horizon of peaceful and prosperous coexistence," says the new plan that promises peace in Gaza; However, hundreds have already been killed in the Strip in the few days since the agreement, hundreds who join the nearly 70,000 that the intervening, colonial, and Zionist state has claimed since October 7th, 2023, just counting since then.
There is talk of a zone free of terrorism and radicalization, of not threatening its neighbors, of amnesty for war criminals and of a temporary transitional government, in which these criminals will not be able to participate in any way, of surveillance and supervision by a new international body.
It is October 2025, all this is mentioned, and they are not talking to Tel Aviv, but to Gaza, where, for Western powers, the criminals are, those who need to be monitored, the terrorists and radicals, who, paradoxically, are once again the ones who account for most of the deaths among their own people.
José Martí insisted that to be radical is to go to the root, but the gentlemen who formulate these cardboard pacifications and who tread on such different roots, who dream of such different branches, do not care and like to play with the word, as if its meaning were equivalent to that of extremism.
In today's world, being radical is as "simple" as confronting these people and their project for the future, which includes your land but not you; it is as "easy" as opposing their continued humiliation, theft, or murder of you. In José Martí's sense, that is what it means to be radical. These guys, however, call you radical to accuse you of being an extremist, like the master who curses—and punishes—the horse that cannot be tamed; like the master who curses—and punishes—the dog that does not follow him.
The plan, which Donald Trump boasts of having authored, has more gems: it alludes to the disarmament of "Hamas and other factions" of the resistance. The same man who promotes that the citizens of his country be armed to the teeth to defend themselves against crime, especially among school children, now proposes peace to the Palestinian people in terms of surrender.
And that is not going to happen, because the Palestinian people have already learned, with the "grace" of decades, that when they have no means of defending themselves, it is not exactly common criminals who come and steal their homes and land.
While promising multimillion-dollar investments that will build the "New Gaza," the plan is optimistic and generous, assuring that, along the way, "the conditions may finally be right for a credible path to self-determination and statehood for Palestine."
A peace that does not recognize or address the underlying problem, that does not prevent some from continuing to treat others as second-class citizens, that erases with a smile and meager promises an entire genocide, not a two-year episode, but a systemic one that has lasted for decades, that does not guarantee sovereignty... such a peace is not peace.
