Donald Trump has suggested large numbers of Palestinians should leave Gaza to “just clean out” the whole strip, after ordering the US military to restart shipments of 2,000lb bombs to Israel.

The US president said he wanted Gaza residents to move to neighbouring nations, and that they could be displaced “temporarily or could be long-term”, after a phone call with Jordan’s King Abdullah on Saturday.

“I said to him: I’d love you to take on more because I’m looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now and it’s a mess, it’s a real mess. I’d like him to take people,” Trump said, when asked about the call.

He also suggested Egypt as a destination for Gaza residents, and said he would raise the issue with President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi on Sunday.

It was Israel’s plan yes, not official us policy like now.

[-] small44@lemmy.world 38 points 5 days ago

What would you make think biden or harris would have blocked such a plan?

[-] Glasgow@lemmy.ml 29 points 5 days ago

Because they already were. Only siths and maga deal in absolutes. Which are you?

[-] small44@feddit.nl 30 points 5 days ago

They never was. Every time the US say to Israel to not do something Israel does it and then the US give them more bomb and aids and diplomatic protection.

Can we keep this cringe Funkopop liberalism on Reddit please.

It’s called objectivity sweetie and I’m an anarchist ✌️

[-] kreskin@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago

you shouldnt start calling people "sweetie" or this devolves into a slapfight.
That what you want? To shut conversation down? And for an "anarchist" you sure are bending over to DNC corporatist hierarchy. Little bit suspicious.

[-] Glasgow@lemmy.ml 8 points 4 days ago

If you’re still playing the both sides cards this far into it you’re not capable of conversation.

And yep still an anarchist even though I’m rational and pragmatic.

The world judges who you are based on your actions, not what you'd prefer to be called.

[-] Glasgow@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

My actions are aligned.

Maybe he is someone who saw this last loss coming and sees further losses coming unless the dems can start doing the right thing again and adopting an actual effing platform that people will vote for. Remember doing the right thing? When did you abandon the idea of pressuring our leaders to do the right thing?

[-] Glasgow@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 days ago

Because it’s the cowards way out at the expense of the Palestinians. Doubt there’ll be much left by next cycle

[-] kreskin@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Oh?
So you're ready to disavow Bidens support for zionists and agree that it was and is wrong, and that we cant support anyone who does that anymore?

Welcome to the new democratic party, brother. Grab a shovel, theres a lot of corrupt DNC trash to haul to the curb for garbage collection.

[-] Glasgow@lemmy.ml 4 points 4 days ago

No that’s a daft thing to say. Learn some nuance.

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

You think Joe Biden who said that he was a fervent Zionist and that nobody in US history been more of an ally to Israel than him, and Kamala Harris who basically said she'd do everything he would have done, we're going to reign in Israel? Good Lord man there's a difference between optimism and naivete and you have crossed it.

[-] Glasgow@lemmy.ml 7 points 4 days ago

And yet, it got much worse almost instantly. Weird that.

Actually, yes. For the Palestinians anyway.
