Trump insists ‘everybody loves’ his plan for US to ‘take over’ Gaza amid global condemnation
Donald Trump has once again said that “everybody loves” his proposal for the US to take over the Gaza Strip, despite his shock announcement facing global condemnation.
“Everybody loves it,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Wednesday.
He refused to take further questions as he was overseeing the swearing in of the new US attorney general, Pam Bondi.
In a joint press conference with Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday, Trump claimed “everybody I’ve spoken to loves the idea of the United States owning that piece of land,” referring to the Gaza Strip.
That was one of the most unhinged Press conferences I have ever witnessed and coming from Trump that is remarkable.
Trump is a fanatical maniac and his first speech with an alleged war crime went about as well as you could expect, in that it became an immediate train wreck.
He’s insane.
Where the Zombie Jesus does America get off forcing an ethnic cleansing crime against humanity because Gaza is a waste hazard thanks to Israel’s Genocide?
Who disproportionately dropped 85,000 tonnes of bombs on the Gaza Strip since October 2023, (exceeding the amount of explosives used in World War II), that has made Gaza a giant toxic waste land?
The Israelis.
Who supplied billions in military aid including massive bunker busting bombs?
America.
Who has nearly 50 000 dead + 11 000 dead still under rubble plus 182 000 who have died because of secondary consequences?
The Palestinians.
The IDF and America cause the toxic wasteland that is Gaza and now wants to forcibly remove all 2 million???
Trump is not only talking about an ethnic cleansing of Gaza, he’s talking about the annexation of the West Bank as well.
I have said Trump is a fascist.
I have said his orange fascism is dangerously destabilising.
I have argued his evangelical support base believe in a literal interpretation of the Book of Revelations and believe if they start a war in the Valley of Armageddon it will trigger the rapture and these extreme Christians won’t stop until they get their war.
He is going to start multiple wars because he thinks God saved him.
We are so fucked.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
And again, we watch the international rule of law further disappear.
Meanwhile climate crisis continues.
Yes indeed. We are completely fucked.
The alternative? Doing what we have done consistently for the past 50 years and expecting a different result. No thanks.
Think of this as a negotiation that will develop over the next few months. The King of Jordan visits next week. Then there will be discussions with other regional players such as Egypt and Saudi Arabia in due course. It will require regional backing. It might happen or not but I suspect it will be watered down to a regional development plan with temporary displacement.
If Trump somehow solves the issue of Palestine in an unconventional manner you could almost put a fork in the establishment left. You might as well start chiseling on Mt Rushmore.
Anyway back to the popcorn moments that are likely to come out of the USAid investigation over the next couple of weeks. Would dare suggest there will be an avalanche of pleading the 5th very soon. Anyone in the NZ media going to investigate the veracity of the Auckland Uni allegations? Anyone?
Ok Frank move out of your home where maybe your family have lived (and now died ) for generations. Be annexed into a country forever refugees watching someone else clean up the mess left by the Israeli bombs with maybe your family members still in the rubble. No doubt then it will be handed over to your enemy to live in while you watch on . You think that will work.
Happy with Hitler, Kim Jong Ung and now Trump FTT?
We are 2 weeks into the 2nd Trump Presidency- how are you going to last 4 years?
Your knowledge of history is poor, the Trump plan is a continuation of what has been happening since 1948 and can only have the same result which is lots of angry people. The Jewish monopoly on the media is over and as more people learn the truth the worldwide support for Palestine will keep growing along with continued instability in Israel.
It’s going to take years to clear Pacific Palisades before they even start building there again but the US is diverting it’s resources to Israel? This is America second. Even if all the 20,000 building companies in Los Angeles went to work rebuilding the 10,000 burnt structures that would still take what, 4-5 years at the least? If only a fraction of these contractors can be used in a perfect scenario of resourcing and logistics, 10,000 contractors could take 8 years, 5,000 could take 12-16 years. And the Palisades is 1/6 the area of Gaza. A fair and equitable solution would be for the Palestinians to rebuild their own country with the assistance of the international community. They could erect temporary cities to house the population and workers (America could help with this because they are experts at setting up bases around the world with complete infrastructure) and rebuild their country as a beacon of hope, peace, ingenuity and resilience. And Israel could disarm, knock down the walls, and go have a beer and break bread with their brothers and sisters in the Gaza strip on any beautiful Mediterranean night.
