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.”

    Did any of the Palestinians ever regret all those kidnappings? It brought so much suffering, yet no word of regret and still some hostages remain.

      I heard a 5 year old girl who got sniped in the head by the IDF really regretted her participation on oct7.

        So, I am a sadistic monster for pointing out that kidnapping civilists and meístreating them instead of just getting rid of your extremist leaders led to the desaster. And not even showing regret and distancing yourself from those religious zealots doesn’t help, of course. But I am the monster, not the kidnappers. How dillusional are you???

          Do you hold the Israeli forces that hold hostage without atrial or any evidence of wellbeing to the same standard?

            Compare a photo of a IDF prisoner to a photo of someone who was held hostage by Hamas. And stop comparing hostages with prisoners.

              Israel makes wholesale use of administrative detention - holding Palestinians without charge or trial, for terms that can be renewed indefinitely. These detentions are based exclusively on secret information, preventing any meaningful judicial review.

              How do you define hostage versus prisoner when people are being locked up for indefinite periods of time based on ‘evidence’ that they, their lawyers or anyone outside the IDF are able to see?

                I don’t understand how this makes taking hostages and mistreating them by Hamas even remotely understandable let alone agreeable.

      The way Western media works, they could have expressed profound regret and you never would have heard about it. That is not your fault.

      They were for releasing their own hostages. And those Israelis opened fire on the busses carrying them and immediately went on a spree to arrest more people for no reason.

      Fuck you, Israel deserves whatever hell it gets.
