The article discusses how President Trump has revolutionized political possibilities, extending beyond the traditional Overton Window to what is termed the 'Overton Vista.' This shift is exemplified through the context of Gaza, where typical diplomatic peace processes are criticized as ineffective and merely a façade, allowing diplomats and NGOs to profit while making little real change. The author argues that these cycles of ineffective interventions lead to recurring political crises, undermining genuine peace.
“The last week has totally reset my conception of what's possible,” emphasizing how Trump has drastically altered perceptions of political possibility.
Diplomatic efforts in Gaza are likened to a cycle of peace processing that ultimately fails, reinforcing the ineffectiveness of such interventions.
