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.

What's the end goal here, cause another 9/11 so he can declare martial law?

I said something similar a few months before he got into office, got down voted to hell.

A gift to Netanyahu for intentionally delaying the ceasefire until after the election to help Trump win.

Long story short, when people are hungry and broke and without a place to live, they become desperate, but then when you do something that really makes them angry. They stop being desperate and they start becoming violent. Not just people in the Middle East mind you I’m talking all people from British colonists to French students yelling about revolution all the way down to Germans, who survived the World War I only to see part of their country, giving away the treaty of Versailles. 

 Donald Trump‘s plan is just asking for further acts of terrorism against America and our interest overseas

I feel sorry for any service member who is killed because Donald Trump wants to build another hotel that will inevitably go bankrupt

Trump seems to practicing a classic example of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brinkmanship

Not sure if purposefully or just accidentally.

Lmao. Enjoy Dearborn, Michigan. When he kicks you out, you can join them in limbo.

[–] Count042@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 day ago

This was literally Bidens plan as well.

You can have fun laughing at people that didn't want to vote for someone directly responsible for killing their families (as if you'd be different at all), but don't do it because you think this is something worse that Trump is doing that Biden wouldn't.

I mean Jordan said recently that they'd consider pushing refugees across their border an act of war. Trump's "plan", if it can even be called that, doesn't include a realistic way to bring about all this. I think I represent a good number of Muslims when I way: Fuck him, but it ain't happening.

Not surprising to say the least. Just have to wonder how bad will it get.

Edit: well that didn't take long. https://www.reuters.com/world/trump-gaza-ceasefire-should-end-saturday-if-hostages-not-released-2025-02-10/
