Summary

Trump has reiterated his proposal for Palestinians in Gaza to relocate to Egypt or Jordan, framing it as a solution for safety and reconstruction.

The suggestion has been widely rejected by Palestinian leaders, Egypt, Jordan, the UN, and regional allies, who view it as undermining the two-state solution.

The remarks coincide with severe humanitarian crises in Gaza following 15 months of war.

Critics speculate Trump’s statements are aimed at supporting Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s far-right coalition amid political instability in Israel.

    So the question is, do those who didn’t vote democrat due to their Gaza stance feel better now?

      You do realize that Biden wasn’t much better, right? I am not an American, but pretty much with your duopoly voting system and the level of AIPAC influence over your politicians there isn’t much of a choice.

      Oh and for the record, I think Trump is worse than him in a lot of areas, but Biden wasn’t great either.

        … right, so the Gazans are basically where they were before (along with all the other Palestinians in the area, as well as all ajoining countries) but also we’re in a worse place domestically.

        So. Let’s ask again, those who didn’t vote Democrat due to their Gaza stance… do you feel better now? Your lives are almost assuredly worse, but at least you didn’t directly vote for someone who allowed genocide to happen.

        Our duopoly is due to First Past the Post voting. Ranked or Alternative voting would be better, but will take a while to implement due to First Past the Post voting.

    The time-honored US tradition of writing new chapters of genocide of Palestinians through the new president, regardless of party. Forced evacuation is ethnic cleansing. Ethnic cleansing is a fancy word for genocide.
