Donald Trump has suggested large numbers of Palestinians should leave Gaza to “just clean out” the whole strip, after ordering the US military to restart shipments of 2,000lb bombs to Israel.
The US president said he wanted Gaza residents to move to neighbouring nations, and that they could be displaced “temporarily or could be long-term”, after a phone call with Jordan’s King Abdullah on Saturday.
“I said to him: I’d love you to take on more because I’m looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now and it’s a mess, it’s a real mess. I’d like him to take people,” Trump said, when asked about the call.
He also suggested Egypt as a destination for Gaza residents, and said he would raise the issue with President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi on Sunday.
You know, given his comments about it being prime real estate, I wouldn’t be surprised if the word “Strip” in the name evokes a sort of Vegas Strip and that’s what Trump is thinking. Nevermind that people fucking live there, to him it’s Jewish Vegas (or Atlantic City if you know Trump’s preferences).
It’s like those fairy tales Zionists try to convince you about that every belief system should seek their own nation. It’s easy to come up with free land when you have zero value for the people living on it.
Wouldn’t this backfire terribly for Israel. Palestinian armed groups could establish a strong foothold in Egypt access to a large area for military activities and a larger recuitement base?
Not really because they’ll just invade that too to make another “buffer zone” for the people they move into what was the Gaza strip.
Anyone thinking the destruction of Gaza ends this had better think again.
I mean egypt didn’t have to do anything for israel to to attack it in 67 . Israel will always find excuse to do so.
Oh, now this asshole is all for other countries taking in displaced migrants.
Oh no, he just wants them to leave, not to go to another country. They don’t live in reality.
Yeah, this is likely the truth; the guy can’t think two moves in advance on anything.
No, he doesn’t actually want any other countries to take them in. They should just leave their own country… He’d prefer that they simply walk into the Dead Sea so he doesn’t have to think about them anymore.
Democrats… “Palestinians should return to the rubble & sleep there like dogs! Otherwise, we can’t claim that Trump is the next Hitler!”
Yeah well see we talked to all the neighbors but they didn’t want them so unfortunately some of them may have gotten in the way when we bulldozed the site ready to lay the foundations for the new condos. /s
He should give maralago to the Indian tribe that used to live there.
Would that have been his brilliant plan for handling the start of Russia’s invasion into Ukraine?
End it in 24hrs means make Ukraine capitulate and reward Russia for all the bad behavior. Same with Taiwan. Same with Greenland.
Oh so an actual genocide. Curious.
Now with U.S.-approved ethnic cleansing.
Implying it wasn’t already one?
Gaza had a chance under Harris, yes Not anymore.
She campaigned on being exactly like Biden, how would they have a chance?
They had a chance under Biden. He was withholding large bombs and putting pressure on Netanyahu to end the conflict.
Now the bombs are being delivered and Trump is putting pressure on Netanyahu to finish the conflict.
Lol his one act of defiance was limiting the 2000lb bombs. Really worked hard there to stop it.
What pressure did Biden ever put on Israel?
jfc you’re really acting like massive explosive ordinance shipments being halted doesn’t have any impact so you can justify helping elect an actual genocidal fascist?
Oh, yes. I’m sure that he would’ve succeeded eventually. Just give him another 4 years…

Hey you’re cool with the current regime and like genocide! What’s it like being a genocide apologist?Edit: Taking potshots at people who I agree with and don’t deserve it is bad form.

In what way is saying it was already ethic cleansing and a genocide makes me a genocide apologist???
You know what? You’re right, I’m sorry. Taking out my frustrations with the current regime on the wrong target.
It’s okay. Completely understand. (and there’s actually someone in the comments who should take that advice)

Continued genocide. As advertised.

Do you believe what was happening up until now was not genocide? Because if you don’t then calling this an actual genocide makes it seem like you do.
Nonono, it’s only genocide if it comes from Republicans. Otherwise, it’s just sparkling ethnic cleansing.
Gaza would have had a chance… Now bye bye

How? Honest question.
USA withheld weapon shipments under Biden, and according to white house staff Biden would regularly cuss out Netanyahu over the phone for harming civillians.
Whether you believe it or not, the Biden admin was constantly trying to negotiate ceasefire, but when they presented their deal with hostage release as a bargaining tool in the UN it got vetoed by Russia and China.
Harry Sission is that you? The same White House staff that told everyone how young & dynamic Biden was. LOL!

You mean the one UN ceasefire that was just to allow Israel to regroup and rearm not actually move towards peace? That was also what 5 ceasefire resolutions after all the ones USA vetoed?
not include provisions supporting ongoing diplomatic efforts to secure a ceasefire - an element of the U.S. resolution. Washington has been working with Qatar and Egypt to try to broker a deal.
The Gazans aren’t going to leave, it is their land. What will Trump do? Biden already destroyed 60% of buildings, 92% of homes, 88% of schools, 68% of cropland, 68% of road networks, while only 50% of hospitals are partially functioning.
Gazans will rebuild with or without US support. The vast majority of the world recognizes their right to self determination. The US is the odd one here and with Trump at the helm it is increasingly isolated.
Native Americans suggest the colonizers should just leave America.
No way he convinces Jordan and Egypt to take even more refugees they’ve taken millions already.
You can expect everything from those dictators
Well, they’ll still figure out some way to cleanse gaza…
This is beside the fact that Palestinians don’t want to leave their homes.
Yes that also.
And that’s why Kamala’s stance on Palestine never bothered me.
I knew that as bad as it was, Trump would be worse.
I was right.
Oh sure, just take the Palestenians, and shove them somewhere else. Good, endless angry people consolidating on another territory.
clean like how? put the garbage and litter in appropriate places?
WHERE ARE ALL THE GENOCIDE JOE BOTS AT??? Fucking idiots, I can’t believe people got swayed by such obvious propaganda into not voting.
Native Americans suggest Americans should leave, “Just clean out “ the whole country, allow it to be rewilded and return to how it should be.
