The Gaza Board of Peace has been named

Looks more like a gang who will tear the Palestinian lands to pieces.

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c9vx7kn33elo

With the US president as chair, the founding Executive Board will oversee the work of a committee of technocrats tasked with the temporary governance of Gaza - and its reconstruction.
Each member of the executive board is expected to be in charge of a portfolio that will be "critical to Gaza's stabilisation", the White House added. But it is not yet clear who will be responsible for which priorities.
No women and no Palestinians have been announced at this top level, but the White House said additional members will be announced over the coming weeks.
Donvict is Chairman

Secretary Marco Rubio.
Steve Witkoff.
Jared Kushner.
Tony Blair.
Marc Rowan.
Ajay Banga.
Robert Gabriel
The cynicism here is breath-taking

Not a one of them has any interest or intention of statehood for Palestinians. Leaders in the Middle East need to step up and help the Palestinians, as do leaders around the world, or there will be no more Palestinians. Under Netanyahu, Israel has turned into the Evil Empire.

He didn't want to announce this part too soon - it might look unbalanced. as if it's needed.
