People will have ‘no alternative’ but to leave territory after destruction left by Israel, US president said in Fox interview

Summary

Donald Trump stated that Palestinians displaced by Israel’s military actions would not have a right to return to Gaza under his plan.

Instead, he proposed resettling them in Egypt and Jordan, despite both nations rejecting the idea.

Trump suggested creating permanent refugee communities funded by the U.S., calling Gaza a “real estate development for the future.”

His proposal has drawn condemnation from Arab nations and legal experts, with the UN warning it could constitute ethnic cleansing and violate international law.

Israel’s far-right settlers welcomed the plan.

    The Palestinian people who are not US citizens do not get a vote at all.

    Here you assume that there are no Palestinian Americans, very racist.

    Those that are US citizens chose to throw away their vote so they’re in the same camp as those who are not US citizens.

    Here you claim that Palestinians that didn’t vote for Kamala are US citizens, but you don’t consider them to be US citizens… more racism.

    Palestinian people who were US citizens chose the worse of the two options

    Here you claim that Palestinians don’t know what is best for them, which is more racism.

    the Palestinian people who were not US citizens had a vote here

    More racism by you attempting to claim that there aren’t Palestinian Americans.

    They do not have enough power, militaristicly speaking, to have autonomy over their own region, and are unfortunately at the mercy of Israel and their close allies (e.g. the USA right now), to control their fate/future.

    Weird how you could have voted for someone else that didn’t support genocide & unconditional support of Israel, which would have given them more autonomy but you chose not to.

    Palestinian Americans and allies who could have voted and chosen a less evil/less terrible path ahead, and they flubbed things in the name of making a point

    Weird how you claim to always know what is best for them. Just like the white man always knows what is best for African Americans. Very racist of you.

      This is an illogical misinterpretation. Consider a Venn diagram of Palestinians and US Citizens. The intersection is obviously not the empty set. That initial sentence you quoted is describing the set of Palestinians minus said intersection. You even betray your misinterpretation by quoting “Palestinian people who were US citizens” between accusations of racism.

      Much of the rest of your comment similarly falls apart from this illogical misinterpretation.
