Norman Finkelstein: Trump’s Gaza “Peace Plan” Is a Fantasy; with Marc Lamont Hill

Dr. Marc Lamont Hill sits down with scholar and author Dr. Norman Finkelstein, one of the world’s foremost experts on the Israel-Palestine conflict, to break down Donald Trump’s proposed Gaza “peace plan.” The controversial plan — which would place Gaza under a Trump-chaired “Board of Peace” — has been criticized for bypassing Palestinians and offering no real path to statehood. Finkelstein argues that the proposal “has no connection to reality,” exposing how U.S. and Israeli interests continue to shape the region’s fate while sidelining the very people it claims to help. Together, Hill and Finkelstein unpack what this plan means for Palestinians, the future of Gaza, and the global struggle for justice and sovereignty. Originally aired on UpFront, this conversation remains one of the most incisive analyses of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East - First published Oct 4, 2025.
