“I would like Egypt to take people,” Trump said. “You’re talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing and say: ‘You know, it’s over.'”

“I would love for you to take on more, ‘cause I am looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now, and it’s a mess. It’s a real mess.”

“It is literally a demolition site right now, almost everything is demolished and people are dying there,” he said.

“So, I would rather get involved with some of the Arab nations and build housing in a different location, where they can maybe live in peace for a change.”

Him saying this doesn't make Egypt or Jordan any more likely to acquiese, right? Because we've heard this rhetoric for a year and a half now

[-] Gucci_Minh@hexbear.net 35 points 11 months ago

It actually would make Egypt and Jordan be mad at him since they hate the idea of taking in Palestinian refugees. Whether their own interests can win out over being American vassal states can only be speculated on though.

i am an egyptian taking this many refugees is an economic and social disaster for egypt it will also be seen as them giving up on the palestinian cause and would severely hurt the popularity of 2 already unpopular regimes

Jordan and Egypt should (and probably will) fiercely reject this idea, just like they did after Biden proposed billions for resettling Palestinians outside of Gaza. From Biden's ~$95B Oct 2023 funding request:

So we're just hearing something from Trump that Biden already proposed, but now it's an ethnic cleansing?

Ya nobody ever said that about Genocide Joe. Total double standard.

I think the aim of the Zionazis has been to force Palestinians into land they want as part of the Greater Pissreal plan. Then when the Palestinians try to return, resist, or get more likely false flaged, it gives Pissreal the excuse to attack Egypt and Jordan and then steal their land in the resulting conflict.

I believe the countries know this and is the key reason why they have been adamant in maintaining Palestinians stay in Palestine.

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:

We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.

  3. Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

  4. Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.

  5. Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
