Episode notes
Deal Was Rewritten To Favor Israel
- Jeffrey D. Sachs says the Trump-Gaza agreement is effectively a Trump-Netanyahu deal changed to favor Israel and announced unilaterally.
- He argues the deal preserves Israeli control over Gaza and lacks genuine Arab agreement.
Negotiations Won't Create A Palestinian State
- Sachs states Israel will not negotiate a Palestinian state and Netanyahu declared "never a Palestinian state" at the UN.
- He says the U.S. veto, not Israel, blocks Palestinian statehood in the UN despite global recognition.
Stabilization Force Could Mean U.S. Occupation
- Sachs interprets the "international stabilization force" as likely involving U.S. troops and preserving Israeli security control over Gaza.
- He warns the plan effectively surrenders Palestinian claims and maintains Israeli dominance.
