What do you mean? He's just going to get nominated for another Nobel Peace Prize for this!!! /s

It's worth nothing that forcibly removing the injured and starving will inevitably lead to some people being permanently "cleaned out".
GBR48
Why is the media not using the term 'ethnic cleansing', which is what Trump's plan is.

*worth noting

Expulsion people from their homeland, US really good at it, that just what happened to Indians people that currently reside in Oklahoma. Now US try suggest the same thing to those Palestinians, even those Palestinians already stay in their land long before SS Exodus that brought holocaust survivor arrived in Palestine port.

Ethnic cleansing. The last time the Palestinians left Israel they were refused to go back. 4 million refugees are living in other countries.

Send the Jewish Israeli people back to Europe.
Create a Palestine state and let that Government decide how many have "right of return "
GuruMick
UNRWA being closed by Israel in about 3 days.
That,ll help....
Aly Rustom
Exactly. And if Trump wants to do that, let the Palestinians come to the US.
You break it, you own it.

How many hundreds or thousands are buried under the destroyed buildings? It will take many decades to reconstruct Gaza back to the pre-war level.

Because of course something similar never happened as a result of every other Western nation and China/russia? Get real.

No, they’re right in their homeland
Oh, here we go with the dreaming again….

How many will perish on this journey?

Trump stated he wants to "clean out" Gaza. Take back the "Panama Canal." Take "Greenland" from Denmark.

"Homeland" is debatable, since historically both muslim Arabs and Jews lived in the Gaza area. The Jews were forcibly removed in 2005, leaving Gaza an ethnically cleansed muslim Arab area. Since then, the population has grown massively, partly by immigration from other Arab countries.
I do not know how any new population transfer would work out, what I do know is that Gaza deserves to be liberated from Hamas.

He said "buy" Greenland from Denmark. Not "take". Words have meanings.
In the event, I predict he will in the end buy Greenland, but not from Denmark, but from the Greenlanders once they declare full independence.

False. Not all muslim Arabs left. The remaining ones constitute about a fifth of the Israels population and have the same citizen rights as every other Israeli (with the exception of military service, which is voluntary for them).
False. Any remaining person who left the area at the time of the founding wars would be in their 90s today. There are very few left. What you call "refugees" are descendants of refugees, which probably most of us are. The idea that "refugee" is an inheritable status is new and is only applied by the UN to muslim Arabs who fled Israel. (Why that is should be debated).
You might want to check facts more often.

Trump means "take" even against the will of the Inuits. How do you put a price on a country rich in minerals? Trump will never pay a fair price. The Inuits won't declare independence while Trump is in office. It will take much longer than that.
GuruMick
Zaphod...,tis you who needs to "check facts more "
Consistently wrong, consistently repeating propaganda.
The "right of return " is a real issue , before the UN Courts who have ruled on this.
In your mind, Israel can do no wrong.
Well, that is wrong.
Zaphod

That is your attempt at mind-reading. Your Trump-whispering skill seems admirable, but the fact is he said "buy", not "take".
Facts matter.
Zaphod

Of course it is an "issue". A very important issue, as letting millions of self-declared muslim Arab "refugee" flood into Israel would be demographic end of the Jewish state.
Nothing I stated about the issue was wrong. If you think so, clarify.
wallace
1 dollar or $10 trillion.
The Inuits and their leaders have stated they want to be independent but not part of the US. Will Trump force them?
GuruMick
The "right " and their squarkee parrots use Anti Semiticism as a tool to push racism and Islamophobia.
Not falling for it.
Jews are not a caricature to be used for political purposes unassociated with anti semiticism
GuruMick
Zaphod...the world has seen what certain "identified states ", Jewish or otherwise, look like.
Apartheid South Africa.
Jews can live with Muslims if leaders push the idea.
Dont see why "Jews " need their own state, to the exclusion of others.
Ghandi said "if a Jew is born in France, he is French "
Religion shouldn't determine nationality.
Where should all the Zoroastrians go ?
Zaphod
wallace
No, he won't. And what the Greenlanders say at the moment is irrelevant, as Greenland is still Danish territory. Once they gain full independence, everything changes.
Facts matter.

Israel was created by the UN as one of the states for thew two Palestinian people, meaning Jews and muslim Arabs. That is a fact. You can think of it what you want, but the history of its establishment is on record.
Again, please state what you think I said about the muslim Arab population and about the inheritable "refugee" status is wrong in your mind.

Genocidal maniacs often use household phrases like, 'Clean Out', or 'Final Solution' instead of ones like 'Eradicate', or 'Eliminate'.
Makes 'murder' so much more palatable for their vicious followers.
iknowall
They also say "good morning", "how are you". So what?
Good that is not the case, as Trump is the leader of the biggest peace-loving country in the world and he is supporting another peace-loving country Israel, in trying to deal with genocidal maniacal leaders in Gaza who try to make mass murder more palatable for their vicious followers.
GuruMick
Iknowall and Zephod could connect with various UN and even Israeli human rights groups determinations on subjects you raise.
I am too tired for troll baiting

Truth is the greed of the usual warlords in Wall Street will always try to prioritize their economic interests over the human rights and indeed lives of the residents in Gaza, West Bank and indeed any part of Israel's illegal occupation.
That is what I call the moral authority of America and his main ally in Middle East
