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.”

    “Other people didn’t care, so I didn’t either” is not the robust self-defense you think it is.

      Worse than “didn’t care”… it’s more like “caring about how to make their lives worse”…

        I still don’t know why you think this is any sort of self-defense, but okay. Fine. You didn’t want to make their lives worse, you just didn’t give a fuck about them at all. You hero.

          Im actively involved in indigenous projects for the indigenous people.

          I helped a Black woman win a Dem primary, only to have the Local Dems back a Reich Winger in a write in ballot.

          But, yeah, I don’t care about them. K.

          I’m not the one sending jackboot thugs into their community… that’s the local dems.

            I see no reason to believe any of that when you have told two very obvious lies about me.

              Okey doke. In reality, your only solution to any problem is “Vote.blue no matter who”.

                You keep telling lies about me and I have no idea why. What do you hope to accomplish?
