As inadequate as President Trump's Gaza peace plan is, it does
offer a potential end to the genocide. And the fact that Hamas appears
to be accepting it, with qualifications, indicates that it is
something to work with. A potential sliver of hope.
Now is not the time to cynically sit back on our haunches,
pontificating on how everything is going to fail. That would be the
epitome of sadism against people who have suffered so much. Rather, it
is the moment to fully mobilize around the Oasis
Plan in the context of creating a new economic and security
order.
As Russian President Vladimir Putin told the Valdai Club on Oct.
2:
“Today’s world is an exceptionally complex, multifaceted system. To
properly describe and comprehend it, simple laws of logic,
cause-and-effect relationships, and the patterns arising from them are
insufficient. What is needed here is a philosophy of
complexity—something akin to quantum mechanics, which is wiser and, in
some ways, more complex than classical physics.”
Do not be a literalist pair-wise reductionist in this moment.
Remember that the future is not composed of a linear stacking-up of
“events” in chronological order, based on already existing
assumptions. The future exists in the imagination of Man, and the
present is formed by the future, not vice versa. So we must be aware
of the ugliness of the 20-point plan in all of its injustice, but
nonetheless fight for the potential that humanity intends.
