Nuts
#Trump said on Sunday he is committed to buying & owning #Gaza, but could allow sections of the war-ravaged land to be rebuilt by other states in the #MiddleEast.
"I'm committed to buying & owning Gaza. As far as us rebuilding it, we may give it to other states in the Middle East to build sections of it, other people may do it, through our auspices.
But we're committed to owning it, taking it, & making sure that #Hamas doesn't move back."

Ezzat El Rasha, a member of the #Hamas political bureau, condemned #Trump's remarks on buying & owning #Gaza….
"Gaza is not a property to be sold & bought. It is an integral part of our occupied Palestinian land," & #Palestinians will foil #displacement plans, Rashq added.
Trump has spoken of permanently displacing Palestinians who live in Gaza & would create a "Riviera of the Middle East."
Trump last week floated the idea of the #US taking over Gaza & engaging in a massive rebuilding effort.
#Trump’s statement was vague on the future of #Palestinians who had endured over a year of bombardment by #Israel in response to an Oct 2023 attack by Hamas.
…It was unclear under what authority the #UnitedStates would take claim of #Gaza. Trump's announcement drew immediate rebukes from several nations.
Earlier Sun, #Israel President Isaac Herzog said #Trump was set to meet w/ #Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah el #Sisi & possibly #SaudiArabia Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman #MBS….
The comments, delivered in an interview w/ #FauxNews, came in response to a question about Trump's recent proposal to take over & develop #Gaza.
Herzog did not say when or where the meetings would take place, nor did he discuss their potential content. He also noted Trump is due to meet w/ #Jordan's King Abdullah….
…#SaudiArabia has flatly rejected #Trump's #Gaza plan, as have many world leaders.
#Jordan's King Abdullah plans to tell Trump during their planned February 11 meeting in Washington that the proposal is a recipe for #radicalism that will spread #chaos through the #MiddleEast ‘ jeopardize the kingdom's peace with #Israel….
What do normal American people think when the hear this?
@mastodonmigration I have no idea.
@Nonilex @mastodonmigration I consider myself normal. And I agree. It’s nuts. All of its nuts. And quite honestly worse than I expected.
@mastodonmigration Well, I am not sure if I’m normal lol, but I think it is disgusting. And I wonder why people did not know who he was (based on his words and actions) BEFORE these latest despicable comments (that he has said numerous times at this point). Instead, many voted for him.
The Saudis must be so happy they've dumped so much money on Trump et al right about now.
trump's Gaza "plan" (ie extermination and ethnic cleansing of Palestinian civilians) is just a logical continuation of the genocide that #GenocideJoe started. The main difference is that trump is too stupid and incompetent to hide it behind a thin veil of humanity.
trump is doing a good job of uniting Arab nations together to fight his plan, also forcing EU politicians to condemn it. The "antisemitism" smear campaign used by the terrorist state of isreal is finished.
#Gazagenocide
"Trump has spoken of permanently displacing Palestinians who live in Gaza & would create a "Riviera of the Middle East.""
This has been a Jared Kushner (and the Saudis, although they're pretending shock right now) wet dream for years and years
#Kushner is the real backstory to #Trump's recent hallucinations about occupying #Gaza
@Nonilex It's looking like no Palestinians are being consulted in these genocidal negotiations
@Nonilex He then added that the Palestinians could live there but I’m sure that’s nonsense unless they have lots of money to shell out for those luxury condos he wants to build
@Nonilex If anyone is paying to rebuild Gaza, it should be the Saudi’s.
@Nonilex Sounds more like a business deal than a political move.
