In a recent meeting with IsraeliPrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump proposed that the United States “takeover Gaza” and transform it into the “Riviera of the Middle East” by removingits Palestinian population. He reiterated that the residents of Gaza, which hasbeen devastated by 15 months of Israeli war and over 47,000 casualties, couldrelocate to Jordan or Egypt. However, both countries have opposed thisproposal.
Democratic Congressman Al Green fromTexas strongly condemned Trump's remarks, saying, “Ethnic cleansing in Gaza isnot a joke, especially when it emanates from the president of the UnitedStates, the most powerful person in the world.” He also criticized Israel'sPrime Minister for allowing such comments, affirming that he “should beashamed, knowing the history of his people, to stand there and allow suchthings to be said.”
Meanwhile, Jake Auchincloss, aDemocratic Congressman, slammed the proposal as “reckless and unreasonable,” pointingout that Trump's political motivations, often driven by a “nepotistic,self-serving connection,” could further destabilize the already fragileceasefire between Israel and Hamas.
In a similar vein, Senator Chris VanHollen condemned Trump’s proposal, calling it “ethnic cleansing,” and warningthat such actions could “give ammunition to Iran and other adversaries.”
Trump’s plan has also sparkedinternal debate within the Republican Party, with some expressing reservationsabout its implications. Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, a close allyof Trump, described the proposal as “problematic,” doubting whether theAmerican public would support sending troops to Gaza to implement the plan.
“It’s a demolition site.”
