For the first time ever, polls show more Americans support Palestinians than Israel, with majorities opposing U.S. arms shipments and the Democratic Party’s unconditional support for the Israeli state. Silverstein breaks down the IDF’s leaked internal report admitting failures in Gaza, highlighting poor strategic planning, ineffective operations, and the resilience of Hamas despite massive Israeli assaults. He also analyzes the so-called GREAT Trust plan— a postwar scheme framed as reconstruction but effectively a Trump-backed grift, offering Palestinians just $5,000 to leave while opening Gaza to luxury resorts, high-tech investments, and U.S.-administered “trusteeship” oversight, enriching private investors while displacing millions. We explore how these developments are reshaping U.S. politics, divisions within the Democratic Party, and the broader implications of it all.
