President in effect endorses ethnic cleansing of territory before hosting meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu

Donald Trump has said that Palestinians have “no alternative” but to leave Gaza due to the devastation left by Israel’s war on Hamas, in effect endorsing ethnic cleansing of the territory over the opposition of Palestinians and the neighbouring countries.

Speaking as he prepared to host Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, on Tuesday, Trump repeated the suggestion that Gaza’s population should be relocated to Jordan and Egypt – something both countries have firmly rejected.

Trump claimed Palestinians would “love to leave Gaza”, telling reporters: “I would think that they would be thrilled.”

    I’m “sour” because I had to flee the country because people like you cared more about a genocide on the other side of the planet than the genocides that were going to start (and now have started) domestically.

    And people like you still obviously don’t care about them. Some are denying they are happening or will ever happen.

      Look, principally I agree with your comments under this post, but this one was more miss than hit. The “genocide on the other side of the planet” is no less meaningful than your domestic ones.

        Are you fucking kidding me? Two additional genocides is not a bigger fucking deal than one already happening?
