Meet the Crypto Conmen Running Trump’s Gaza ‘Peace’ Board | w/ Muhammad Shahada

Trump’s Gaza “Board of Peace” scrapped its own roadmap to bend to Netanyahu’s demands — and within days of Hamas signing on, Israel resumed airstrikes on Gaza that killed at least 18 Palestinians. Muhammad Shahada, a visiting fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations, joins Rania Khalek and guest host Amanda Yee to break down how Israeli demands for “proactive operations” turned a workable deal into a trap. From Jared Kushner to Steve Witkoff (to King Midas himself), the Board of Peace is run by conmen and fugitives — including Ron Tankman, the former Israeli intelligence official now pushing a Trump-branded cryptocurrency to replace Gaza’s entire financial system. Plus, how Muhammad Dahlan’s political reemergence and the UAE’s surprising shift on Hamas could reshape regional politics ahead of November’s elections.

Shahada also explains why political competition ahead of Israeli elections in October may accelerate violence across Gaza, Lebanon, and the West Bank; and why even Israel’s “left” is led by a general who has openly discussed starving Gaza and refuses to walk it back.

“Donald Trump has this golden Midas touch of excrement. Anything he touches turns into feces.”
