Donald Trump has said that Palestinians have “no alternative” but to leave Gaza due to the devastation left by Israel’s war on Hamas, in effect endorsing ethnic cleansing of the territory over the opposition of Palestinians and the neighbouring countries.

Speaking as he prepared to host Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, on Tuesday, Trump repeated the suggestion that Gaza’s population should be relocated to Jordan and Egypt – something both countries have firmly rejected.

Trump claimed Palestinians would “love to leave Gaza”, telling reporters: “I would think that they would be thrilled.”

    So trump advocating for illegal immigration to Jordan and Egypt? Didn’t he just throw a fit claiming Canada and Mexico are supporting that to the USA?

      Canada is sending drugs or something, but conservatives have never cared about illegal immigration by white people. Latinos however are “different” and don’t belong here. Currently that means non-American Latinos and the US, but it’ll extend to Latino Americans in the wrong place within the US. It’s never been about citizenship.

      It’s simple: He can’t tell the difference between Palestinians, Jordanians and Egyptians, and therefore neither can they.
