I was going to take a step back, let others come here and offer their thoughts but I simply cannot stand on the sidelines in light of the latest arrogant, heartless, travesty from this President- owning Gaza, and calling it the Riviera of the Middle East after he gets done with his building, etc.
The utter audacity of this President to play God with people’s lives, in our America and around the world, is unbelievable.I used to love the word audacity, as in Obama’s “audacity of hope”. Well,there is no hope here; it is a word that this current President has no understanding of. One of the most fundamental rights of people is to live on the land that they choose, THEIR land, 2 million Palestinians should not be moved somewhere else.
This morning, I’ve read many news sources on this heartless Gaza proposal. Besides the illegality of such a move, here, from BBC news, world views of the Gaza proposal:
“In addition to Egypt and the Palestinian Authority, the international community has roundly condemned Donald Trump’s comments on a possible US “take over” of Gaza.
Many officials are stressing the importance of a two-state solution in the region:
The UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy reiterates the country’s commitment to a two-state solution. “We must see Palestinians live and prosper in their homelands in Gaza and the West Bank,” he tells reporters on a trip to Kyiv.
The foreign ministry in France releases a statement repeating its opposition to “any forced displacement of the Palestinian population of Gaza”, and says the territory should not be controlled by a third party. It says a two-state solution is “the only one that can guarantee long-term peace” for Israelis and Palestinians.
In Russia, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov says that a settlement in the Middle East is only possible by implementing a two-state solution, according to Reuters news agency.
Meanwhile, the Saudi Arabian foreign ministry says it “rejects any attempts to displace the Palestinians from their land”. It adds it would not establish ties with Israel without the creation of a Palestinian state.
Both China and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese back the need for a two-state solution.
Turkey’s foreign minister says any plans leaving Palestinians “out of the equation” would result in more conflict.”
The Guardian summed up this President’s philosophy with these well chosen words: “Welcome to Trumpworld, where the developer-in-chief sees dollar signs in the rubble of Gaza.”LikeLike

there’s so much to understand. what is most disturbing to me in the moment is the lack of response from the People…Israel’s and our congress (half of it) …that there is no outcry
here in response to his expressing this intent…which then puts us as complicit. We are rapidly becoming a country
that cannot be trusted.LikeLike
