Blair and Rubio named on senior executive of Gaza 'Board of Peace'
The former UK prime minister and US secretary of state will sit on the "founding executive board", the White House says

I don't get it. I suppose it's from 1984; what was minilove and how does it relate to the headline?

In 1984, it is revealed that the "ministries of" are not ironic nor accidental - they did not become twisted versions of their namesakes. They are so named to intentionally destroy the thing they are named after.

Ergo, "Ministry of Peace"

Seems that the commenter suggests that calling it ‘board of peace’ is disingenuous.
