On paper, it sounds serious. In reality, many see it as deeply ironic. The people invited make it look less like a peace effort and more like a gathering of global controversies.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"343\" data-end=\"561\">The board is meant to guide ceasefire talks and rebuilding efforts in Gaza. But there is a strange detail. Gaza is not even mentioned in the board\u2019s charter. That alone raised eyebrows. What followed made things worse.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"563\" data-end=\"609\">Trump\u2019s Board of Peace faces Global mockery<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"611\" data-end=\"893\">Trump\u2019s chosen members quickly sparked backlash. One of them is Vladimir Putin. He is accused of war crimes and faces international sanctions. Another is Benjamin Netanyahu. His name alone explains the outrage. Tony Blair is also on the list. He played a major role in the Iraq War.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"895\" data-end=\"1165\">The board also includes billionaire donors and former CEOs. None of them has a background in peace work or humanitarian aid. Not a single Palestinian leader was invited. No Arab state representatives are included. No Muslim majority country connected to Gaza has a seat.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1167\" data-end=\"1434\">To many, the list feels deliberate. It looks like power and loyalty matter more than peace. Online reaction was immediate. People mocked the board\u2019s name. One user renamed it the Bored of Peace. Another joked that the world is now doing group projects with dictators.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1436\" data-end=\"1655\">Others were more blunt. One comment said Gaza\u2019s future was being decided by warlords. Another asked why Putin was invited but Ukraine\u2019s leader was not. Many joked that Trump was assembling a war criminal superhero team.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1657\" data-end=\"1705\">Trump\u2019s conditions turn the Board into a power play<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1707\" data-end=\"1870\">Confusion disappeared once Trump\u2019s conditions became public. Every member must pay $1 billion to join permanently. Trump alone holds veto power over all decisions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1872\" data-end=\"2090\">Members can only serve for 3 years unless they hand over another $1 billion in cash during the first year. And the biggest shock came last. Trump plans to be chairman for life. Not just during his presidency. For life.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2092\" data-end=\"2308\">At that point, the goal became clear to many. This is not about peace. It is about control. Powerful figures with violent pasts rarely create peaceful futures. Still, Trump seems determined to push this plan forward.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2310\" data-end=\"2453\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">For now, the Board of Peace exists more as a spectacle than a solution. And the world is watching, confused, alarmed, and laughing all at once.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump has revealed a new foreign policy idea called the Board of Peace for Gaza.
