Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision to join President Donald Trump’s Board of Peace signals more than a diplomatic gesture. It marks a strategic shift in how Gaza’s future and global conflict governance may be shaped outside traditional international institutions. Backed by Washington and aligned with Trump’s broader vision, the new body challenges the authority of the United Nations and introduces a leader-driven model of conflict management. Supporters see speed and control, while critics warn of power consolidation and pay-to-play diplomacy.

19 January,2026 09:12 PM ISTIsrael has formally objected to the composition of a newly announced U.S.-supervised Gaza peace board, triggering fresh diplomatic friction between Jerusalem and Washington at a critical moment in the conflict. The Israeli Prime Minister’s Office says the executive panel overseeing the Gaza peace plan was revealed without prior consultation, raising concerns over Israel’s exclusion from a process directly affecting its national security. President Donald Trump has described the board as a “new approach to conflict resolution,” inviting global leaders to participate in shaping Gaza’s future.
