We Called It: Israel-Gaza Ceasefire

Kit Knightly

Eight days ago, in our third prediction for 2025 we said…

…the incoming Trump admin will be trying to score “peacemaker” points with a deal in Ukraine, that could extend to Israel-Gaza too. A negotiated release of all hostages is also possible.

We already predicted, in our first such article, that Trump was going to be sold as a peacemaker.

Well, just hours ago the news broke that Hamas and Israeli authorities had agreed to a six week ceasefire and exchange of hostages. You can read the full terms of the deal here.

Whitehouse spokesman John Kirby, speaking to the BBC, claimed the temporary ceasefire is only phase one and will allow time to negotiate phase two, which might see a “permanent end to the war”.

…and Donald Trump is already getting the credit.

Yes, it’s true Biden is still in office and his admin has claimed the credit for themselves…

but you’d be forgiven for forgetting that, since most of the press have.

The Independent headlines:

Trump credited for ceasefire breakthrough as US officials who resigned over Gaza war slam Biden’s inaction

Going on to say [emphasis added], “Officials said breakthrough came when Trump applied pressure on Israeli government, something Biden was unwilling to do”

This is furthering  the interesting  “Trump vs Israel” storyline that was set-up when it was reported Trump had “snubbed” Benyamin Netanyahu by not officially inviting him to his inauguration.

In that same vein the New York Times tells us that “the Israeli Right May Soon Be Disenchanted With Trump”.

The Atlantic agrees, reporting on

“How Netanyahu Misread His Relationship with Trump – The cease-fire in Gaza reflects another triumph for Donald Trump and shows Benjamin Netanyahu who’s boss”

In more general terms, Trump is getting kudos for the deal all over the media, even from traditionally hostile outlets.

The Financial Times:

Trump helped secure a Gaza ceasefire deal. Can it last?

The Economist:

After 15 months of hell, Israel and Hamas sign a ceasefire deal – Donald Trump provided the X factor by putting heat on Binyamin Netanyahu, who insists the war isn’t over yet

The Atlantic again:

Trump Made the Gaza Cease-Fire Happen

The Guardian:

‘A stern message’: how return of Trump loomed over Gaza ceasefire negotiations

Even CNN give him partial credit:

How the Biden and Trump teams worked together to get the Gaza ceasefire and hostages deal done

The cherry on top is that the deal is going to take affect on January 19th – the day before Trump’s inauguration – which means we might get some visuals of recently freed hostages in attendance (or something like that).

Won’t that be good PR?

Without being unduly immodest I have to admit we tend to get proved right quite a lot – but not usually as fast as this.

We all know the agenda-makers could have halted the slaughter in Gaza any time over the past months with just a couple of phone calls. But to them human beings are just NPCs in their grand plans and Great Resets and thousands of lives can be sacrificed without a second thought . It just wasn’t convenient for them to stop the killing – until now, when it suits the strange new narrative of The Donald as emerging Hero.

Is this really an end to the nightmare for the people of Gaza, or just another aspect of their continued exploitation by forces beyond their control?

Let’s see how this continues to pan out.

Not having been there to personally witness the destruction, and also understanding that Hamas was always in the pay of the Israelis, one has to ask if any of this is true? Has the entire area of Gaza been flattened, and if not then how much of it? Exactly how many Palestinians have been killed? Are the Palestinians cooperating in some Israeli dialectical formula of thesis (aggression), antithesis (resistance) with the preconceived solution to have the place rebuilt with gobs of foreign money and the place declared as a two-state area with Israel as dominant?
After 9/11, which was a joint US and Israeli job, that is the very scenario we should expect from these charlatans. Why not? Humans generally are very, very obtuse and so easily fooled. We have seen so much fake US-Israeli footage about the alleged atrocities by the Assad government in Syria in the past, that we know they are absolute masters in that kind of deception garbage. If the Israeli and Rothschild establishment already did privately opt for a two-state solution for the area and the West Bank but Israel in charge, then our knowledge of the culture is that they would not want to pay for it, and if they could orchestrate their resolve with the doomsday scenario of Zionist Nazi-like genocide with the threat of compete land clearances of the so-called “subhuman” Palestinians (taking a page from Hitler), then the rest of the world would most likely be sucked into believing they had an obligation to encourage and contribute to a more moderate policy of compromise, with the two-state solution, and support the Israeli dove faction. That way the banksters would get the green light to create gobs of QE currencies out of nothing, like with Covid, to pay for everything, including resettlements and all of the rebuilding and new construction costs. The Jewish families could continue with their resettlement plans in the area, and the Palestinians would share in the development plans with jobs doing much of the grunt work. First, of course, they would have to create the crisis, in order to engineer that very solution.
Without dramatically exaggerating the problem on the world stage as if all their differences were unreconcilable, and then saying, “Please don’t throw me into that briar patch” of a two-state solution, the Israelis and the Rothschild dynasty would likely have to finance the entire operation on their own backs.
Another scenario is that they did flatten the place and ruthlessly murdered some 100,000 people, in order to create the crisis for that same two-state solution which they simply do not want to pay for.
Not to discount the actual horrors and crimes against humanity (the actual extent we seem not to really know), but there is something very contrived and fishy in all of this.

It is Israel trying to score some points with the people by pretending Trump is not one of them. They did the same thing coming out against the Federal Reserve Act because they knew if they did, the people support it.

This ceasefire is only a pause of uncertain duration. Hamas has not been destroyed and it’s objective to annihilate Israel is not the least diminished. In the hostage handovers do they look like a spent force? The ceasefire will only be used, ironically funded at least in part by US “reconstruction” aid money for Gaza, to re-arm and rebuild Hamas’ military capacity for a next 7 Oct, which they have vowed to do.

the world Zionist power, at the head of financial capitalism. the supreme power. Wars, wars and wars that will reshape the world. End of democracies and constitutions. Digital slavery, slavery and that’s it

Stoltenberg is considered an expert on transatlantic strategy (specifically in connection with the Ukraine-Russia conflict), which may suggest that the elites behind the Bilderberg Group intend to prioritize military engagement, potentially through covert operations in connection with NATO. This assumption would seem to be supported by the fact that Alex Karp, CEO of Palantir Technologies – the AI giant aligned with US intelligence – serves on the Bilderberg board (with Palantir’s co-founder and key shareholder Peter Thiel). Karp, who not unlike his billionaire associate Thiel fancies himself as a visionary philosopher, has claimed that Palantir played a significant role in orchestrating ‘most of the targeting in Ukraine’.
https://thephilosophicalsalon.com/wargames-and-fartcoins-brace-yourselves-for-an-explosive-start-to-2025/#respond

Not only that, but here’s Palantir again:
Palantir supplying Israel with technology to help in war effort
After holding its first board meeting of the year in Tel Aviv, the US company announced the signing of a strategic partnership with the Israel Ministry of Defense
https://www.calcalistech.com/ctechnews/article/rymy7ret6and here: Tech giant Palantir to hold first board meeting of 2024 in Israel
-We stand with Israel. The board of directors of Palantir will be gathering in Tel Aviv next week for its first meeting of the new year. Our work in the region has never been more vital. And it will continue,”- the U.S. company announced
https://www.calcalistech.com/ctechnews/article/h14fcrz00t
It is interesting an old article from 2017
-The neo-fascist philosophy that underpins both the alt-right and Silicon Valley technophiles”, which discusses the links of some Silicon Valley figures to the “Dark Enlightenment,” a dark neo-fascist philosophy started by British academic Nick Land in the 1990s.
There are some consistent themes in the Dark Enlightenment, revolving around technology, war, feudalism, corporate power, and racism. “It’s an acceleration of capitalism to a fascist point,” says Benjamin Noys, professor of critical theory at the University of Chichester and author of Malign Velocities: Accelerationism and Capitalism .
Those who have studied Dark Enlightenment describe an almost cult-like vision of a dystopian future. “It is a worship of corporate power to the extent that corporate power becomes the only power in the world,” says David Golumbia, a new media professor at Virginia Commonwealth University. “It becomes militarized, and states break down. For some reason that’s difficult to understand, they seem to think these highly weaponized feudal enclaves would be more free than the society we currently have.”
The major proponent of the movement other than Land is software engineer Curtis Yarvin, who blogs as “Mencius Moldbug.-

-And while most Silicon Valley techies are unaware of and uninterested in Dark Enlightenment, there are notable figures and ideas that seem to share intellectual heritage and connections with the movement.
Venture capitalist Peter Thiel is a major backer of Yarvin’s start-ups and, as The Baffler reports, in 2012, Thiel gave a lecture at Stanford with distinct Dark Enlightenment themes. -A startup is basically structured as a monarchy,” he said at the time. “We don’t call it that, of course. That would seem weirdly outdated, and anything that’s not democracy makes people uncomfortable.-
https://qz.com/1007144/the-neo-fascist-philosophy-that-underpins-both-the-alt-right-and-silicon-valley-technophiles

-The future Reich that our children and grandchildren will see will have a much more definitive and total character than the one we knew between the 30s and 40s. The destructive power that technology puts at the service of humanity is destined to be unleashed because all of humanity today can be eliminated…. What matters above all is our inferiority in the face of the machines we have created. (Gunther Anders, Man is Antiquated, Turín, Bollati Boringhieri, 2007, vol. 1, p.57).

Except for the soldiers and civilians are slaughtered these wars in the Ukraine and the Middle East are totally contrived.

I so not pay any attention anymore to the official narratives spun by our governments and the ,mainstream media, but in tuning onto the internet I could not miss the following on MSM.

A major blow to Putin: Russia’s unexpected defeat
https://www.msn.com/en-ca/money/topstories/a-major-blow-to-putin-russia-s-unexpected-defeat/ss-AA1wWF1Z?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=53aaf156b32c45f3b41800ef210afa2a&ei=10#image=1

The alleged “blow” to Putin is that Zelensky has announced he was going to stop the flow of Russian natural gas from Russia through the Ukraine. Jimmy Dore picked up on this ludicrous announcement over a week ago, puzzling how such an “all-out” and “earnest” war by the Ukraine against Russia since February 2022, with an alleged over 600,000 Ukrainian soldiers slaughtered in the Russian “meatgrinder”, and all of those terrible and crippling sanctions of the US against Russia, and no one thinks of interfering with the vast array of Russian pipeline through the Ukraine to the EU and Turkey. Sure, lots of BS for our benefit about Nord Stream 2 but likely also Nord Stream 1 was left untouched and has also kept supplying the EU. Some war.

Trump as we know is another face for Zionism and as the international banking cartel controls Russia, the UK, the EU and the US, its pet Zionist tribe has been in total control of both the Ukraine war with Russia, the genocide in Gaza, and the fall of Syria. In their see-through plans, Trump is to be hailed as the great peacemaker, while the superpowers gobble up one smaller nation after another while rattling their swords in our faces and against each other.

33 Israeli hostages (of whom only 25 are apparently still alive), to be exchanged for 700 Palestinian prisoners. Works out as an exchange rate of 1:28

Similar to the ratio of Iraqis killed to US soldiers in the last US-Iraq war. Hence at least a level of consistency in the valuing of the lives of those little people in little nations when compared to those in the big nations

Was there a greater global reaction to a US inauguration than with Trump’s 2nd term? 

Long even before it even happened. Everyone maneuvering for that optimal future position.

Peace deals in the Middle East (with a suitable prelude to wider war with Iran). The banning of a social media platform TikTok. The IMF throwing wobblies over the global economic future. And yet, that complete non-reaction / muted response of the main opposition, the US Democrats (plus UK Wokerati) compared to his first term. Having seemingly conceded complete defeat.

Will the Trump bite prove as good as its bark? Time will tell. Perhaps the impact is already half-done. The threat of a future storm encouraging people to shut up shop regardless of whether the storm actually arrives…

I was extremely critical of the vast amounts of money being spent on Y2K. leading up to when the clocks changed at Midnight 1999. I wrote an article about this, a few months before the event and sent it to one of the main publishers of the computer press, using my own real name and real email address…

In the morning, I thought “Oh Shit”, if my Management Read This, I am almost Certain to get Fired….so I contacted the publisher / editor of the computer weekly magazine – Please do not publish this…He said what you wrote was Brilliant..Is it OK if I change your name…I said yeh OK (Tony Wilkes is not my name)

Then it came to the time, and I was working from home, naively thinking everything was going to be fine, at least for the computer systems, I was responsible for.

Thank You. You always seemed sensible on the rare occasions, I saw you interview people like CJ Hopkins on’t ‘inter web net / telly.

“We Called It: Israel-Gaza Ceasefire”

“In more general terms, Trump is getting kudos for the deal all over the media, even from traditionally hostile outlets..”

You are only a young lad…you should phone up, that Scottish Lad, and do a joint interview – maybe screened live by GB News if he hasn’t already got fired.

I usually like him, especially his soft Scottish accent, family projection and his innocence, deep knowledge and broadcast history of British History

and then he realises – WTF?????

This can’t be happening, but he knows it is.

That takes real courage – losing your income at the BBC

Whilst, I have done drones, and seen UFO’s they did not knock on my door and ask for a cup of tea… that was the Police. WTF do you want?

The London Standard
Jan 17, 2025
Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan has been accused of “stonewalling” questions about whether London has a problem with so-called “grooming gangs”.
His Tory rival Susan Hall made nine successive attempts at Mayor’s Question Time to ask Sir Sadiq whether there were gangs operating, or previously active, in the capital.
But Sir Sadiq repeatedly asked Ms Hall, the former Tory mayoral candidate, to clarify what she meant by grooming gangs, claiming: “I’m not clear what she means.”

Sadly true. Whenever I talk to someone face-to-face, I am so depressed by their rote repetition of media speak. As in “Oh you must be one of them anti-vaxxers/conspiracy theorists” etc. And I have found it’s utterly futile to engage them.
 
The dumbest of all are those who proudly announce theta they wouldn’t hesitate for the next vaccine – as if this was some indication of moral strength.
 
Truly, the propaganda department was entirely correct in its presuppositions of public behaviour. They could foresee the drones putting up their wretched rainbow frames on their Facebook pages: “I’ve had my vaccine and I’m such an insufferably pious prat!” etc.

It’s a good example of “begging the question”, of pre-supposing that there are artefacts of lunar landings to protect. There hasn’t been a single convincing image of said alleged artefacts produced by anyone in over half a century.

All we see of space, and satellites are enhanced “images” – not genuine photographs. And why is there no genine photograph of our Earth, taken from “space” with one of the “satellites” (ie high weather baloons).

First thing I did when I got to college, age 16, didn’t know anyone, was to join the Film Club…There were all these pretty girls and me, and we regularly went to the “art cinemas” in Manchester. My wife still does that in London.

They still won’t show even Any Warhol’s Flesh on TV.

Speaking of Trump’s narcissism, I’ve noticed a commentariat proto-trend forming in recent days: multiple comments scathingly insisting that Trump is absolutely not a narcissist.

Every comment I’ve seen so far seems based on YouTube pop psychology videos. The all cite an aspect of Trump that in their view refutes the narcissism charge– mostly that he demonstrates obviously genuine affection for his family (not to mention Big Macs), or manifestly compassionately “cares” about beleaguered victims of authoritarian violence. Narcissists aren’t capable of such affective behavior– case closed!

I wonder if they would similarly sternly reject synonymous attributes, e.g. “egotist” or “megalomaniac”. 🤔

I would say that whether or not he is a narcissist, egotist, megalomaniac, or just a bad golfer, Trump is not running the show.

He is one of the current front men running the show.

He is there because he serves a purpose. Among other things, stealing all the attention from the atrocities of the past 5 years, and the destruction of communities due to weather weaponization and geoengineering.

Just to name a few?

For all their prowess at attacking civilians or military infrastructure on the ground, the Israelis are taking very large casualties in Gaza from Hamas and made very little inroads into Southern Lebanon against Hezbollah. In addition, they have not subdued the Houthis who continually attack them and their tanker fleet besides the internal conflicts within the various Israeli political factions.

And reports of 20,000 wounded IDF from just the Gaza conflict:

Will the cease fire hold, will all the hostages be exchanged/released/returned, will the right wing Zionist zealots approve the deal, time will tell. Does this mean Israel is abandoning its Greater Israel agenda? Does anyone remember that Israel helped create Hamas as a counter to the PLO? What are the MIC/Deep State war profiteers power cliques saying about this? Does this mean the warmongers have repented and now they want peace?
Personally I doubt it.

This is furthering the interesting “Trump vs Israel” storyline that was set-up when it was reported Trump had “snubbed” Benyamin Netanyahu by not officially inviting him to his inauguration.

Worse than that, Trump also retweeted an interview with Jefferey Sachs, in which the latter called Nutty-yahoo a “deep, dark son of a b*tch.” Ouch!

I wouldn’t blow my horn just yet. For one thing, this is essentially the exact same ceasefire agreed on last May but which Prime Minister Netanyahu refused to accept at the last minute because Ben Gvir and Smotrich would have left his coalition – leaving him open to arrest since his government would collapse without these two..

For another thing, this “ceasefire” parallels the “ceasefire” between Israel and Hezbollah – which Israel violated over 1000 times before it was over.

For yet another thing, the actual ceasefire in November 2023 released both Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners. But most of the Palestinians were arrested again within days of being released.

In a word, this mess is a PR stunt – nothing more, nothing less. Israel is determined to force ALL Palestinians from Gaza and then to annex the West Bank and systematically eliminate all the Palestinians there as well.

The cease-fire sounds more like a bargain with the dedil.

After seeing what’s been happening since the ‘ceasifife’ with Hezbollah almost 2 months ago, what’s to be expected?

Nothing new, Bush & Cheney is former CEO of Halliburton, an oil-services company that also provides construction and military support services

The army or wars in others countries have all got a bad rep with the voters.

A private military company (PMC) or private military and security company (PMSC) is a private company providing armed combat or security services for financial industry which includes government interests

Wagner group · Olive group · Academi G4S Security 

We’ve seen the exact same play book before.

So what the average jo has forgotten is there is another army Outsourcing the war to private military contractors like blackwater or Bush and cheney owned Halliburton, royal family owned Serco, and the many different private armys who have contracts and many ex vets serve in them army’s.

PR will spin is as cease fire, or Trump has started no wars.

But the private army will continue doing it under private when the normal army’s are public.

Basic search online will show how much of the budget is spent Outsourcing to private military contractors.
