President in effect endorses ethnic cleansing of territory before hosting meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu

Donald Trump has said that Palestinians have “no alternative” but to leave Gaza due to the devastation left by Israel’s war on Hamas, in effect endorsing ethnic cleansing of the territory over the opposition of Palestinians and the neighbouring countries.

Speaking as he prepared to host Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, on Tuesday, Trump repeated the suggestion that Gaza’s population should be relocated to Jordan and Egypt – something both countries have firmly rejected.

Trump claimed Palestinians would “love to leave Gaza”, telling reporters: “I would think that they would be thrilled.”

      So noble that you don’t reject genocide on principle

      This kind of shit is why adults can’t take you children seriously.

      Do I actually have to type out the words “I AM AGAINST GENOCIDE” before you’re willing to allow your brain to take common sense into account?

      Like, how slow do you have to be to not grasp that being against genocide and choosing Harris over Trump to minimize the fallout are not mutually exclusive?

      Dipshits who sat out the election or voted 3rd party didn’t accomplish ANYTHING. They sat on the sidelines and cried like children while allowing the situation in Gaza to deteriorate to a maximum degree.
