Sandcastles for Surrender

For Trump, Gaza isn�t a geopolitical quagmire�it�s a sandbox. His Sandcastles for Surrender doctrine reduces war to a beachfront playdate. Losers of conflicts are handed plastic buckets and told to build sandcastles instead of fortifications. Victory is measured not in captured land but in the size of your moat. Diplomats gather at the shoreline, bickering over seashell collections rather than ceasefire terms. In this cartoonish version of reality, history�s deepest wounds are patched over with seashell mosaics. Trump claims, �Nobody wants to bomb a sandcastle,� ignoring that they collapse just as easily as treaties. The satire is biting: Gaza�s destruction becomes the raw material for absurd tourism gimmicks. Critics accuse him of infantilizing tragedy, but Trump counters: �Everybody loves the beach.� This doctrine reveals the core absurdity of his approach�reducing centuries of human suffering to childish metaphors and calling it policy.
