Ah yes, Trump's real reason for proposing this alongside the head of Israel, who is currently responsible for bombing Gaza into the wasteland Trump is referring to, is altruism for the Palestinians. Of course.

Also, you have not answered the colonialism question -- how is Israel building settlements on Palestinian territory and Palestinians systematically being driven from their lands by Israeli settlers not colonialism?
It's land theft. I know wokeys like you can't resist using words from the woke playbook. "Colonialism" is the latest effort from the Islamic extremists and they've successfully utilised the woke mind virus to embed it in the brains of their useful idiots.
FWIW I do not agree with the building of settlements in the WB and,
AGAIN, must tell you that I think all Israel settlers should be evacuated from the WB and the entirety of the WB given to the Palestinians. I also think the Gaza Strip should be rebuilt and the Gazans should return there. We should be trying for peace, not your anti-semitic whining.

Better they live in tents for 5 years, innit?
Then you people can moan and moan about the "dreadful situation" there.

Well we need to post here. Trump is using surprisingly giddy language for ethnically cleansing Gaza of Palestinians and re-developing it for his personal profit.
Wait for the follow-up where he withdraws the threat saying Hamas has agreed to the previous terms of the cease-fire deal.
This is a really transparent bluff, trying to play brinksmanship with the Saudis, Egyptians, and Jordanians. Hey, it worked in the Americas right? Or at least sort of. This kind of strategy only works until the first country calls his bluff.

Waa whaa.
I pray to God the next thing Trump says is we should all be breathing air and drinking enough water.

As truthful as:
"I DO want to remove all the settlers from the West Bank."

I see. So your logic is 'let the people who've been bombing the place to hell and back enter an alliance with another country to force the current settlers out and take ownership of it, on the pinkie promise they'll give it back to them (and everyone else in the world! for a reasonable fee!) once they're done with it'.
You're going to have to do a
tad better than that in the thinking department to convince anybody with two brain cells to rub together, SubEff.

Why does it have to be a pinky promise? Why can it not be the plan? When my house was built I lived in an apartment until it was finished. But it was always going to be mine.
Why do you always think the worst possible motives of everybody?

My dude, I've been saying this for the last 10 years.
Israel needs to stop stealing land from the Palestinians in the West Bank. And all of the settlers who have committed crimes need to be prosecuted. It's the biggest shame of Israel.
