US 'wants countries to pay $1bn to stay on Gaza peace board'

Israel says they have not coordinated with the US over the structure of the Trump-backed Board of Peace.

Donald Trump wants countries to pay $1bn to be permanent members of the US-backed Board of Peace, according to reports.

The Board of Peace will form a key part of the Gaza peace process but a statement from the office of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said the US did not coordinate its creation with them.

Israel's foreign minister Gideon Saar would raise the issue with US Secretary of State Marco ‍Rubio, the statement added.

The Board of Peace, unveiled by the White House ‌on Friday, will be chaired by Donald Trump and tasked with supervising Gaza's transitional administration.

It would include 11 members who will be part of an executive board, plus additional members.

The US administration has reached out to around 60 countries to contribute $1 billion (£747 million) if they want their membership on the board to extend beyond three years, according to a draft charter seen by Reuters and first reported by Bloomberg News.

The executive board includes Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, despite Israel's opposition to any Turkish role in Gaza.

"Why are we paying for that shit hole at all?"

Short answer...Trump and Kushner have major business dealings with the Qataris, who have been leveraging that influence to use POTUS to put a leash on Israel.

Before Trump, a bunch of pro-terrorist propaganda had transformed the left into a bunch of anti-Semitic Israel haters who pressured the Biden administration to turn on the country after 10/7.

Basically we're living in the stupidest timeline possible.

"Basically we're living in the stupidest timeline possible."

Not yet, but we're getting there.

Also, Trump will eventually turn on Israel. 100% guaranteed.

Q: Have you invited Putin to be a member of the Board of Peace?

TRUMP: Yeah. He's been invited

Q: Any response to Macron saying he won't join?

TRUMP: Did he say that? Nobody wants him because he's going to be out of office very soon, so that's alright. What I'll do if they feel hostile, I'll put a 200% tariff on his wines & champagnes & he'll join, but he doesn't have to join, if he said that, you're probably giving it to me a little bit differently, but if he actually did say that...
