Palestinians in Gaza say ‘Board of Peace’ will further occupation

💡Analysis & Context

The 'Board of Peace' initiative, despite its name, is perceived by many Palestinians as a thinly veiled attempt to normalize the occupation rather than genuinely resolve the conflict. This deep-seated distrust highlights the chasm between stated intentions and lived realities on the ground. This perception undermines any potential for legitimate dialogue, reinforcing the cycle of resentment and making true peace even more elusive for all parties involved. Watch for whether the 'Board' attempts to engage with actual Palestinian representatives or if it remains an optics-focused body, further alienating those it purports to help.
