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.”

    Option one will do a bad thing (with chance of opposing)

    Option two will do a bad thing and burn your house down and remove option 1 permanently.

    Option 3 is an illusion that enables option 1

    OOH, I CHOOSE 3 SO I CAN BE SPECIAL AND BLAMELESS. It didn’t do a bad thing!

      I have heard your perspective before. It’s disingenuous framing and discounts all democratic power of the people to abandon parties that don’t serve them. It’s nothing but a form of trained self-subjugation for the masses that absolutely neuters any opposition to the ruling class.
