Systemic Analysis of Gaza Disarmament Plan: Unpacking Power Dynamics and Historical Precedents

The Board of Peace's plan for Gaza disarmament overlooks the root causes of the conflict, including decades of Israeli occupation and blockade. This approach neglects the historical context of Palestinian resistance and the role of international actors in perpetuating the cycle of violence. A more effective solution would involve addressing the systemic inequalities and power imbalances that have led to the current situation.
