I agree this is delusional but it is endorsed by right wing members of the Israeli government.
Gideon Saar, Israel’s foreign minister, praised Trump for his “out of the box ideas” on Gaza, saying that the enclave “in its current form has no future.” Saar appeared to defend Trump’s contentious proposal that Palestinians leave Gaza en masse. “As long as people emigrate of their own free will — anywhere in the world — and there is a country willing to accept them, can anyone say that’s immoral or inhumane?” he said in Israel’s Parliament.
From here. There are others in Netanyahu’s government who are endorsing the idea of relocating Palestinians.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio and White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said he {Trump} only sought to move the roughly 1.8 million Gazans temporarily to allow for reconstruction.
Now you might think you remember this,
Trump, who said Tuesday night, “If we can get a beautiful area to resettle people, permanently
Same pattern as the first administration. Trump says something outrageous. Others come in to say what he really meant. It will be interesting to see when some start leaving because they can’t handle the craziness. A lot more true believers in the administration this time but some will not be able to deal with it.
Why wouldn’t he? He wouldn’t be the first nor the last leader to order a genocide. It’d be a way to make Trump happy, a lot of his own supporters happy, and to finally grab all that lebensraum at once.
Isn’t Andrew Jackson Trump’s second-favorite president? (Trump is his own favorite president.)
Okay. Let’s say it is. What, exactly, is it he’s negotiating?
Right. His stupid stunt with moving the US embassy to Jerusalem was the root cause for something in the neighborhood of 60 deaths. No telling how many people are going to die from this one.
Seriously. Have any of his announced policies or aspirations been anything other than something that is not (a) illegal, (b) cruel, and (c) likely fatal to marginalized people?
A pseudopod of a concept of an idea.
And apparently some right wing members of our government.
“We weren’t going to kill the Palestinians in Gaza; we just wanted to send them to live on a farm where they would run about in the fresh air and sunshine”
Israel is in a perpetual existential survival mode. They’ll do whatever it takes to survive, and that’s become especially egregious under Netanyahu which led directly to the Gaza crisis.*
As for “push[ing] the people out of Gaza”, mass deportations of Jews out of Germany and the occupied territories was the Nazis’ original plan. It was only after that didn’t work that the exterminations began. This is how genocides begin – one horrible, unthinkable idea that quickly becomes thinkable after all, and paves the way for normalizing an even more horrific one. This insidious escalation is the real menace of Trump.
* ETA: That’s not meant as a criticism. If your very existence is under perpetual attack, then you’re naturally going to be in a perpetual survival mode. This includes apparent overreactions to real or perceived threats. Nor is it meant as a defense of Netanyahu. He’s a real war hawk who totally went nuts over the Hamas attack.
He’s jumped so far out of the box that he landed in the lunatic asylum – a place chock-full of “out of the box” thinkers!
Just want to add, that first video is a textbook example of Christian anti-Semitism.
‘The Jews in Israel (and by extension all Jews) are not the Real Jews, Christians are!’
Yep. Biden really did all he legally could. Got two UN ceasefire deals, etc. But maybe he could have done a trump and stopped all aid to Israel- thereby losing the Jewish vote. lose/lose. Several poister here castigated Biden for that.
So to punish Biden for not doing stuff he really shouldnt do, they helped vote in trump- and surprise- the leopards really are eating faces.
Yep.
This of course will be a money sink and cause massive terrorist attacks on the USA and environs, it will cost more than Afghanistan, and get the USA hated even more.
However, I do have some doubts it will really happen.
