US president says he wants people to move to neighbouring nations, after resuming shipments of 2,000lb bombs to Israel

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.

    People like you didn’t standup to stop genocide because the democrat thought rightly it is not an issue for you.

    Democrat refused to secure Michigan, or learn anything from Clinton loss, and hand everything to " a threat to democracy "

    Democrat did nothing to limit the influence of oligarchy on the state, and didn’t bother addressing basic stuff like raising minimum wage to an acceptable rate. And many other things.

    So you should direct your anger at the party that didn’t give a damn about " greatest threat to democracy"
