For two years, images of dead Palestinian children, flattened neighbourhoods and starving civilians flooded television screens and social media feeds around the world. What once shocked global audiences gradually risked becoming routine. The war in Gaza — from October 2023 until the ceasefire of October 2025 — left behind extraordinary destruction and an uncomfortable question: had mass suffering itself become normalized?
Is the world now witnessing, in near silence, the live-streamed genocide of the Palestinian nation simply because it feels powerless to stop it? Or because global attention has shifted elsewhere, particularly toward the US-Israeli confrontation with Iran? Whatever the answer, one disturbing reality has emerged: many governments appear willing to believe that Washington has genuinely pursued peace and reconstruction in Gaza, and that the issue is somehow moving toward resolution. This perception has been carefully cultivated through diplomatic language, media narratives and political manoeuvring surrounding Donald Trump’s so-called “Board of Peace” initiative — process critics argue relied less on transparency than on political deception designed to create the illusion of progress while the destruction of Gaza continued.
