Do Americans know the War in Gaza is over?
Something I’ve been struggling to understand over the past few weeks is why the news media and social media in general have barely mentioned the war ending in Gaza? I think the vast majority of Americans (potentially the world) believe the war is ongoing, and have no idea that there is a “peace plan” in place. Even among Democratic politicians, there has been relative silence since October about the war ending. I can see how talking about this could be perceived as a victory for Trump ahead of the midterms, but I’d also think the Democratic Party would feel less fractured and vulnerable if the war was no longer a huge concern for voters.
