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.
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.
