He Was a Blackwater Mercenary. Here’s Why He’s Worried about the Board of Peace
Jared Kushner has a scheme to profit off world peace — and Gaza is the testing ground.
There’s a web of private equity billionaires with ties to Israel and shadowy corporate armies who stand to profit off never-ending conflict.
We investigated Trump’s Board of Peace.

Amazing how conveniently a war ravaged area is evaluated at 10s of billions in net worth after the fact.
Coincidences always work out perfectly for these same groups of ppl! Its as if they have an otherworldly level of intel or smth.

It's OK. It's been "Squirreled away ", for safe-keeping so it's earning interest while they await the conflict to become settled… then they'll move the money across to its new home at the Gaza development group (which is highly-corrupt and guilty of stealing these unimaginable amounts).
It's OK, for private commercial operators to have a personal interest in these projects in developing nations like Gaza. It's only OK, though, when they keep it honest.
It's possible to stay honest in managing this much of "Other people's money"… it's just extremely challenging to keep it honest.
Good luck ('n I mean it).

All you see happening here was stopable. How. Don't ever a allow Republicans to stop the very that agencies that monitor these netherious things from happening. Regulatory agencies using Regulations to monitor these pricks from enacting these schemes and grifts. If you haven't noticed. I'll enlighten you. You voters put the very people in office that destory these guardrail agencies. You allowed them to dismantle these agencies. A corrupt 6 on the Supreme Court are just doing the job they were placed there to do. Strike down any laws standing in the way of the wealthy. Now what ya gonna do? Sit on your asses and allow these pricks to rule over you? I seem to remember at the very start of this nation beginning our forefathers took a stand against this type of bullshit tyranny. It's a lot more complicated now. But it's still doable.

The year is 3050, Israel & Palestine are still at war. Congratulations humans, you've accomplished nothing in hundreds of years. Keep thinking you'll change anything though, your naivety is almost admirable. See what happens when you let religion and politics control you? GG human, you tried.

Land theft and genocide. I think we've seen this before in Germany. It's time for new nurenburg type trials. Problem is the people are cowards and won't act.
