What Trumps Peace?
Dear Israel, if you really feel you must enter into a relationship with Donald Trump, please go with your eyes wide open and maintain your dignity. And accept these suggestions.
Putting Trump on a pedestal is no way to build a healthy rapport. Stop feting him and his cohorts with blazing banners and signs. He is just a person, not yet your master.
Trump may seem to be that shining savior calling out from an ad on social media, but he exists solely for himself. You are feeding his already inflated ego, which is not helpful, especially if you are about to sign a ketubah.
Consider his current background. Here in the U.S., there is no peace, no serenity. Trump spends a lot of time thinking about retaliation and revenge. He is using our immigration agents (ICE), our military, and our justice department as arms of retribution against those he doesn’t like. For instance, he is running large immigration raids in Minneapolis (which enjoys its many immigrants), and when an observer was shot in the face three times point-blank, Trump ordered investigation of her spouse rather than of the agent who got in front of her and shot her dead as she tried to drive away. Further, Trump is investigating the governor of Minnesota for being against the raids in his state, and the (Jewish) mayor of Minneapolis because he doesn’t want the agents wreaking havoc in his city, throwing smoke bombs in neighborhoods with small children, tear-gassing babies, flash-banging or dragging from their cars passing citizens who are going about their regular daily business but happen to cross the path of an ICE raid.
Trump doesn’t like Minneapolis because it’s a Democratic city, and a sanctuary city. The agents go in blazing, with no warrants to arrest specific criminals, they simply demand to see “papers” of anyone who looks “foreign.” This is how Trump exacts retribution against a city that does not kowtow to him. Of course, this is just one example of his current temperament.
Do you understand what I’m saying? Or am I being too descriptive? You may see Trump as a fine suitor right now, but if you make one wrong move he might unleash hell upon you. He might proverbially lock you out of your house, or put a tariff on your daily bread.
I hear you saying, “I don’t care what else he does; as long as he’s good for the Jews, I want him!” – I can’t count how many times I’ve heard that incredibly short-sighted view. From my standpoint, I see nothing good for the Jews about him. But more than that, remember, we are supposed to improve the world for everyone, not just for ourselves.
Trump is a transactional individual, he will do what is good for him right now. Tomorrow he may change his mind, both about what he is doing and about what is good for him. Today he offers you a diamond, tomorrow he takes away your credit card.
Trump has released from prison many of those supporters who stormed the U.S. Capitol on January 6th. We ought to be concerned how many of them are White Supremacists. Look at the videos, find the symbols, certainly the Auschwitz shirt is clear. Trump set them free from prison, calling them patriots.
But you say you like him, despite his friends. You want him. Yet it gets much worse. Please, follow me.
Under the guise of taking control of Gaza – excuse me, of bringing peace to Gaza – Trump has put forth something called a Board of Peace. On January 19, 2026, NPR correspondent Daniel Estrin reported from Tel Aviv that the governing document does not mention Gaza at all. It sets up an international coalition – seeming to buck the United Nations – which would require a $1 billion buy-in from each member nation, and which would be governed by a board over which Donald Trump would sit as Chair with a lifetime appointment and sole rights to appoint the next chair. Gaza would presumably be the first effort of that board.
Again, Trump himself would be the Lord and Master for life, and would have the right to appoint his successor. Whether it does anything for Gaza or not, this effectively would make Trump the king of the world. He could direct the board to take any action he would desire to cause “peace” of which he now declares himself the sole arbiter. Maybe for peace, Gaza should become a Mediterranean resort, with Trump casinos? Fine! Russia will stop firing on Ukraine if half of the country goes to Putin? Make it so, O Board! The U.S. wants to own Greenland for peace? Done! How long until someone pushes for “from the river to the sea” and he responds, “Move the Jews!”
Of course, there will be all those billions of dollars which can be used to accomplish anything Trump orders. Maybe you want that kind of overlord controlling the world, controlling you.
On January 18, 2026, Trump said that he no longer feels like pushing for peace because he didn’t receive the Nobel Peace Prize. Therefore, he concluded, he could take Greenland by force. Peace to him is relative. This news comes exactly as he is setting himself up as global commandant, and you are being invited to the huppah.
Meanwhile, you, Israel, calmly put forth official objections to Turkey and Qatar being involved in the Board of Peace, because they support Hamas. That’s it? Israel, you are picking at nits! Israel should object to the entire effort. This is not only about Gaza! In fact, it is not about Gaza at all. It is about Trump being crowned king of the world.
You are objecting to pink and green flowers while you should be kicking the bum out.
Do you really want these “seven blessings,” a piece of this action? I don’t. And I don’t want it for you. No one should hold this kind of power, ever. Trump already has too much power. And you hold some of the power to stop it.
Maybe I give advice like a Jewish mother, but I am doing it in earnest.
If I were your mother, I would strongly advise against this relationship. Don’t pledge your troth, don’t glorify him, don’t get in bed with Donald Trump. Certainly don’t marry him.
We are suffering with him enough over here.
