Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the Tel Aviv regime is collaborating with Washington to identify nations willing to accept Palestinians who have been forcibly displaced from Gaza, thereby advancing US President Donald Trump’s contentious Gaza “takeover and own” scheme.
While addressing reporters prior to their dinner at the White House, Trump was asked about the status of his proposal to “take over” Gaza and forcibly remove the population of the Strip. He asked Netanyahu to respond to the question.
“I think President Trump had a brilliant vision. It’s called free choice. If people want to stay, they can stay; but if they want to leave, they should be able to leave,” Netanyahu answered. Gaza “shouldn’t be a prison. It should be an open place.”
The occupying Israeli regime has seized upon Trump’s plan for Gaza, presenting it as a chance to promote what it describes as “the voluntary migration” of Palestinians from the coastal sliver.
Critics and specialists have condemned the proposal as a means for the coerced removal of Palestinians.
“We’re working with the United States very closely [to] find countries that will… give the Palestinians a better future,” Netanyahu added.
Trump said he has had “great cooperation” from “surrounding countries” on the matter.
“Something good will happen,” he added.
Trump has openly expressed his desire to transform Gaza into what he refers to as the “Riviera of the Middle East.”
He asserts that the expulsion of native Palestinians is essential for accomplishing that goal.
In February, he stated that the United States would possess Gaza and undertake its reconstruction.
Trump proposed at the time that Jordan and Egypt accommodate the displaced Palestinians, but both nations categorically dismissed the notion.
Certain officials from the Trump administration allegedly deliberated on the possibility of providing financial incentives to “motivate” Palestinians to depart. These incentives might encompass housing assistance and monthly allowances.
However, despite these incentives, it is anticipated that Palestinians will not abandon their homeland.
Their comments were made following a security briefing by Israeli minister of military affairs Israel Katz, who stated that the regime aims to establish what he labeled as a “humanitarian city” atop the ruins of Rafah in southern Gaza to “concentrate the population.”
“Our objective is to encourage their emigration,” he said.
Katz affirmed Israel’s long-term objective, which is to enable the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Gaza.
He stated that Netanyahu is currently negotiating with third countries that are prepared to accept them. “The migration plan must be executed,” the Israeli diplomat asserted.
At least 57,523 Palestinians have been killed, mostly women and children, and another 136,617 individuals injured in the brutal Israeli onslaught on Gaza since October 7, 2023.
The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants last November for Netanyahu and former minister of military affairs Yoav Gallant, citing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the besieged coastal territory.

The Most Revolutionary Act 
Pingback: Netanyahu: Israel working with US to displace Palestinians from Gaza | Worldtruth
Am I the only one to realise that Israel has withstood it’s 78 years of Palestinian Occupation precisely because any direct attack against it would necessarily endanger the lives of Palestinians.
The obvious question that follows then, is what will become of Israel when the Palestinians are gone?
Israel is now one of the most despised countries in the world and it’s ethnic cleansing and more recent genocide of Palestinians makes it a prime target for all those the Zionist entity has angered, they are many.
As for the brazen and outright distortion of facts and reality with his “I think President Trump had a brilliant vision. It’s called free choice. If people want to stay, they can stay; but if they want to leave, they should be able to leave,” Netanyahu answered. Gaza “shouldn’t be a prison. It should be an open place.” how in the world does a death zone of such incredible brutality and cruelty make for a Riviera of the Middle East? As for Free Choice, I doubt that any indigent would wish to give up the only home they have known with generations going back nearly two thousand years, unless of course that home had been turned into a charnel house with the threat of more misery and suffering to come if they should choose to stay. How in the world did he come up with Gaza “shouldn’t be a prison” when it was his people, the Israelis, who made it a “concentration camp”? Unbelievable, but such is the bald hubris of this Israeli monster and others in the past.
Of course other countries like the US and UK will be waiting to get their sticky mitts on the Leviathan Gas and Oil Reserves, which will, once this evil plan is forced on the desolated Palestinians, enrich the thieving Israelis with nothing going to the rightful owners, as compensation for all the evil they have had to suffer. BP, British Gas, Exxon and all the other greedy corporations dealing with Israel on divvying up the Leviathan as they have the past 23 years can now claim to have the law on their side with the Palestinians gone.
Totally sickening.

I agree with you. That’s why Trumpty bombed Iran. Trumpty has brought the entire Arab world down on himself and Netanyahu. Now Bibi is quivering in his cowardly boots, and Trumpty is swaggering and claiming success.
We have our own problems in the US of A. As I’ve been saying for many years, we don’t need to be meddling in the world’s problems.

Yep, Dr. B. Thomas Jefferson was the first, I think. He paid Napoleon a hefty sum to buy the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. Napoleon was over-extended, in debt, after fighting all those wars. Remember that TJ was ambassador to France during the French Revolution in 1789. The US Constitution was ratified in 1787, and George Washington was president of the Continental Congress that passed it in 1787.

Wow excellent point, Susan, about the Palestinians serving as a protective force for Israel. I’m embarrassed to say it never occurred to me. There’s no question in my mind that Palestinian lives would be far worse in any of the hell hole failed states Trump and Netanyahu have in mind.
I feel sick, too. And helpless.
