It shouldn’t shock anyone, this long into both of their careers, to learn that Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu are habitual liars. They lie, and they lie, and they lie, practically every time they make a public statement. There’s “no inflation” in Trump’s America, except there obviously is. Israel would never bomb a hospital on purpose, unless perhaps a “Hamas camera” was located there. The official stories grow more incredible by the day. So why, we might ask, do so many journalists and politicians still accept anything these men say at face value? And why are they acting as if a ceasefire and a peace process were happening in Gaza, when Israel’s bombing and killing is still raging on?
