The latest provocative move by former US President Donald Trump has left many questioning whether he has finally crossed the line with his words and actions.
Trump recently held up a "Board of Peace", claiming it was an agreement between Israel and the Palestinians, sparking widespread criticism from world leaders and human rights advocates. Critics argue that this stunt is a brazen attempt to present himself as a peacemaker and mediator, despite having long been known for his divisive rhetoric and lack of tangible achievements in this area.
"This has gone too far," said Amira Hass, a Palestinian-American journalist who has written extensively on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. "We need real action, not empty gestures and self-promotion."
Trump's attempt to impose his own vision for peace may have resonated with some of his hardline supporters in Israel, but it is unlikely to gain traction with most Americans or the international community.
The US has long been viewed as a key player in Middle East peace efforts, but Trump's presidency was marked by numerous failed initiatives and diplomatic faux pas. His continued meddling in regional conflicts and refusal to acknowledge Israeli-Palestinian human rights abuses have only exacerbated tensions in the region.
Despite the fervent opposition from many quarters, Trump remains undeterred, using his signature bombast to rally support for his "Board of Peace" project. This cynical ploy is nothing short of a masterclass in exploiting divisions and manipulating public opinion, but it also raises fundamental questions about the character of the man who once held one of the world's most powerful offices.
As Trump continues to push this agenda, many are left wondering: what's next? Will he attempt to impose his own brand of order on other flashpoints around the globe? The question hangs in the air like a challenge, as we wait to see whether the embattled former President has finally gone too far.
