""People are lining up and treating this the way they treated reconstruction in Iraq," says Aram Roston, whose latest investigation for The Guardian US looks at how the company behind the notorious Florida immigration detention jail nicknamed "Alligator Alcatraz" has been involved in rebuilding plans spearheaded by Trump's so-called Board of Peace."
""It plays this key role in picking the targets that are chosen by the military for destruction.""
"For us here in Gaza, this "ceasefire" is a fiction. The bombing has continued as Israel moves its Yellow Line."

Rubble and reconstruction work are being eyed by U.S.-based contractors positioning for lucrative rebuilding contracts tied to a Trump-backed ceasefire plan and a so-called Board of Peace. A firm linked to a notorious Florida immigration detention jail is reported to be involved in those rebuilding plans, drawing parallels to postwar reconstruction in Iraq. Separate reporting highlights the CIA's role in selecting targets for U.S. military strikes on boats in the Caribbean.
