People will have ‘no alternative’ but to leave territory after destruction left by Israel, US president said in Fox interview

Summary

Donald Trump stated that Palestinians displaced by Israel’s military actions would not have a right to return to Gaza under his plan.

Instead, he proposed resettling them in Egypt and Jordan, despite both nations rejecting the idea.

Trump suggested creating permanent refugee communities funded by the U.S., calling Gaza a “real estate development for the future.”

His proposal has drawn condemnation from Arab nations and legal experts, with the UN warning it could constitute ethnic cleansing and violate international law.

Israel’s far-right settlers welcomed the plan.

    Biden suggests to move Palestinian to Egypt and Jordan as early as October 2023. So did previous US administration it goes back to 80s.

    Saying the quite part out load is what is different now and the Democrats pretend they are upset while Both Kamala and Biden saying their proud Zionist.

    What is now different is that Trump want the place for himself not for Israel nor the US.

      Bidens suggestion was explicitly about allowing Palestinians to flee into Egypt short term instead of being forced to flee repeatedly within the country.

      Trying to equate the two is quite disingenuous.

        Buddy, they’ve never been allowed back before. Why would the Isrealis allow them back now?

        Just how gullible are you? When has any expulsion or relocation of Palestinians out of a territory ever been temporary? Biden isn’t a complete moron. He would know as well as anyone that there is no such thing as a temporary relocation of Palestinians.

          People don’t follow news and ignore it then come back making statement that proven wrong and shove it in everyone face.

          Reality every person who read history or watch news knows for fact that when it comes to Israel US position has been consistent.

          Blaming Palestinians who said “fuck this party that want our vote and continue to kill our families” even though it has proven they reason Kamala lost is Economy.

          Continuing this fake narrative outright racist at best.

          Reminds me how they kept downvoting people who dispute the numbers of people killed in October 7 which, also proven to be around 800 at best and proven the Israel ordered their soldier to use the Hannibal directive of bombing vehicles regardless who is inside.

            Yup. This is way too consistent not to be getting pushed from somewhere. Literally every bit of Gaza news is just a bloody rag to be used to blame the left to these guys. It’s getting disgusting. And they’re alienating people instead of bringing them together

        If you actually believe they would have been allowed back after, I have a Riviera to sell you.

        Biden (and Trump’s) proposed plan all line up pretty nicely with these leaked documents from the Israeli government. https://www.972mag.com/intelligence-ministry-gaza-population-transfer/

        The document unequivocally and explicitly recommends transferring Palestinian civilians from Gaza as the desired outcome of the war

        The transfer plan is divided into several stages. In the first stage, action must be taken so that the population of Gaza “evacuates south,” while the air strikes focus on the northern Gaza Strip

        The document also says that the United States should be enlisted in the process to exert pressure on Egypt to absorb the Palestinian residents of Gaza, and that other European countries — particularly Greece and Spain — as well as Canada should help absorb and settle the Palestinian refugees.

        The Intelligence Ministry document states that Egypt will have an “obligation under international law to allow the passage of the population,” and that the United States can contribute to the process by “exerting pressure on Egypt, Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE to contribute to the initiative, either with resources or with the absorption of displaced persons.”

        The disingenuous is your statement saying they will be allowed back, how about move them back to their home that they cannot return to since 1948 aka “right of return” ? or moving them to housing options in west bank ? why Egypt? why Jordan?

        why would Egypt send their military and build a wall across the border when Biden admin suggested that? Israel was planing that before October, On June 2023 their prime minister goes to UN and draw a pipeline on a map across Gaza. Making it clear they want to annex it. Do you think the US weren’t aware of it? Do you think Egypt who warn Israel about October didn’t pass the info to the US?

        Do you really think people don’t read history or know what is going on to believe outlandish statement that Biden will move them to Egypt, drop the equivalent of two nuclear bomb on the region, then build it up, then bring people back?
