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.”

    Oh we are absolutely doing ‘the first solution’, the ‘Madagascar plan’ for undocumented people right now. Ice is a modern day gestapo. We already are concentrating people in gitmo. I think concern for gay folk is a little overblown, right now. Trans people are obviously the next concern after migrants. These things are real and happening. It’s fascist shit. I don’t want this, I don’t know why you’re implying I don’t care.

      I don’t know why you’re implying I don’t care.

      Because I’ve literally pointed out multiple times that you have shown no compassion for queer and brown people and what they are facing and you refuse to show any. Over and over, when given the opportunity, you showed that you could not give less of a shit about them.

      Suddenly saying “I don’t want this” is not compassion. This has nothing to do with what you want.

      So I am doing more than implying you don’t care. You’ve been given ample opportunity to show you care and have not taken it.

          Yes. To the point that I have spent hours every week both trying my hardest to contact politicians on their behalf and finding Palestinians to talk to so that I can hear their problems and sympathize with them.

          And you have just squandered yet another opportunity to show you care about queer or brown people. Even if you claimed you cared at this point, it’s really obvious that you don’t.
