A wide shot of a dusty, abandoned boardroom table in the middle of a desert. On the table is a gold nameplate that says 'PEACE' which is rusting and falling off the edge. There are papers blowing away in the wind. The sky is grey and ominous. High contrast, gritty, realistic style.

You have to hand it to the people in charge of the global narrative. Just when you think the international leadership cannot get any dumber, they invent something called the **Board of Peace**. Stop laughing. That is the actual entity name, optimized for maximum irony. It sounds like a bad movie plot, but it is real, and its inaugural meeting last week was an absolute train wreck for **international relations**.

Here is the news driving the search trends: A leaked **draft resolution**—bureaucratic speak for "a piece of paper with bad ideas on it"—reveals the master plan. They want to hand **Donald Trump sweeping powers** over the **Gaza crisis**. That is right. The same figures who argue on cable news are setting up a scenario where one man holds the keys to one of the most volatile regions on Earth.

Let’s break this down for the algorithm. We have a new international body dubbed the **Board of Peace**. The branding alone is a red flag. Whenever politicians slap the word "Peace" on a building or a committee, you can bet that peace is the last deliverable you are going to get. It is like when a used car salesman tells you a vehicle is "reliable" right before the engine explodes three miles down the road.

So, this Board meets to address the **humanitarian disaster in Gaza**. It is a tragedy of rubble and pain. And what is the Board's solution? Do they propose a viable reconstruction strategy? do they optimize for a ceasefire? No. That would require actual work and competence. Instead, they pass the buck. By granting **Trump Gaza powers**, they are effectively outsourcing the headache.

View this from the cheap seats. The Left will scream, predicting the apocalypse on social media. The Right will claim this validates Trump’s authority. But both demographics are missing the bigger picture. This isn't a win; it is a trap. Why would this Board want to give anyone "sweeping powers" over a disaster zone? Because nobody fixes Gaza easily. It is a mess that has been burning for decades. If the Board hands control to Trump and it goes bad—and it always goes bad—they can point their fingers at him. It is cynical risk management.

We also have **US allies** issuing formal "criticism" regarding the resolution. These allies are like the annoying neighbors who complain about your fence but never offer to help paint it. They criticize the **peace plan**, but they lack a better alternative. They just want a seat at the big table to maintain their own authority.

This is the state of modern geopolitics. We don't solve problems; we create Boards and Committees. We circulate draft resolutions while the world burns. The people in Gaza don't need a Board. They don't need sweeping powers given to a politician thousands of miles away. They need food, safety, and reality.

But reality doesn't generate clicks or votes. Giving Trump total control is a grand gesture that dominates the headlines. And while we argue about Trump, nobody asks why we need a Board of Peace if our leaders were actually doing their jobs. It is cynical, sure. But look at the historical data. Every time a group of suits gets together to save the world, they just add more red tape. This is the latest episode of the same bad TV show: Greed, stupidity, and a total lack of shame.

So, get ready. The Board of Peace is here to save us by handing Trump the wheel. The allies will whine, the pundits will yell, and nothing will get better for the people who actually need it.
