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.

What's the end goal here, cause another 9/11 so he can declare martial law?

A gift to Netanyahu for intentionally delaying the ceasefire until after the election to help Trump win.

End goal is for kushner to develop sea front properties and make money. Already announced last year.

I said something similar a few months before he got into office, got down voted to hell.

Trump seems to practicing a classic example of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brinkmanship

Not sure if purposefully or just accidentally.

I called it. Powers that be want that beachfront property.

Long story short, when people are hungry and broke and without a place to live, they become desperate, but then when you do something that really makes them angry. They stop being desperate and they start becoming violent. Not just people in the Middle East mind you I’m talking all people from British colonists to French students yelling about revolution all the way down to Germans, who survived the World War I only to see part of their country, giving away the treaty of Versailles. 

 Donald Trump‘s plan is just asking for further acts of terrorism against America and our interest overseas

I feel sorry for any service member who is killed because Donald Trump wants to build another hotel that will inevitably go bankrupt

Not surprising to say the least. Just have to wonder how bad will it get.

Edit: well that didn't take long. https://www.reuters.com/world/trump-gaza-ceasefire-should-end-saturday-if-hostages-not-released-2025-02-10/

Lmao. Enjoy Dearborn, Michigan. When he kicks you out, you can join them in limbo.

"But if the Dems ran a better candidate...."

"But Harris didn't even stop in Dearborn, so it's her fault not ours"

"Sure, everything Trump says is a lie, but at least he stopped here to lie to our faces. It's the dem's fault."

"One of Trump's first acts last time was a Muslim ban, but I can't be arsed to remember that far back"

"I had to vote for this otherwise the dems wouldn't learn anything"

"we just had to teach the DNC a lesson at the polls during that specific election!!!"

But if the Dems ran a better candidate…

This is completely valid criticism. Stop pretending it's not. The DNC is in the habit of specifically going out of their way to choose unpopular pundits, and that's not voters fault.

Voting for Trump, or not voting is their fault...

This was literally Bidens plan as well.

You can have fun laughing at people that didn't want to vote for someone directly responsible for killing their families (as if you'd be different at all), but don't do it because you think this is something worse that Trump is doing that Biden wouldn't.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I mean Jordan said recently that they'd consider pushing refugees across their border an act of war. Trump's "plan", if it can even be called that, doesn't include a realistic way to bring about all this. I think I represent a good number of Muslims when I way: Fuck him, but it ain't happening.

Wonder where all the people that fall for the Russian propaganda on Kamala are?

Probably found another single issue to base their entire political identity around. I know a lot switched over to the Gulf of America outrage.
