Washington DC:
More than a week ago, when the president of the United States, Donald Trump, called Gaza a demolition site after 16 months of assault and proposed “cleaning all that”, it was not clear how serious it was about the plan. But during his joint press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, it was deeply clear that these were some comments outside the whore.
The United States Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, also seemed to support Trump’s plan for an American acquisition of Gaza, saying that the Palestinian enclave must be free of the Islamist group Hamas.
“Gaza must be free from Hamas. As @potus shared today, the United States is ready to lead and make Gaza beautiful again. Our search is one of lasting peace in the region for all people,” said Rubio in a publication In X.
Gaza must be free of Hamas. As @Potus Shared today, the United States is ready to lead and make Gaza beautiful again. Our search is lasting peace in the region for all people.

Neither the president of the United States, nor his main envoy, Rubio, offered many details about the proposal, but Trump’s suggestion that the Palestinians should move to Egypt and Jordan was publicly rejected by the Palestinian leaders and those who lead the world Arab while they were convicted of human rights defenders for being so assigned to human rights defenders. An ethnic cleaning proposal.

What is Trump’s plan for Gaza?
“The United States will take care of the Gaza Strip, and we will also do a job with him. We will be responsible for dismantling all the dangerous bombs and other weapons on the site, leveling the site and getting rid of the destroyed buildings, of levels of levels , creates an economic development that will provide an unlimited number of jobs and homes for the people of the area, “said Donald Trump in his opening comments at the White House Press Conference with Natyenhyu de Israel on Tuesday.
He said that US officials are framing their call to “permanently” resettle “Gaza’s Palestinians as a humanitarian gesture, since there is no alternative for people who live there because Gaza is a” demolition site. “
The United States has supported a solution of two states between the Israelis and the Palestinians who would create a state for the Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza occupied by Israelis with Israel. Trump was asked if under him Washington no longer supported that.
“It means nothing about a state of two or one state or any other state, it means that … we want to give people an opportunity of life … because Gaza’s strip has been hell for the people who live there “Trump said without answering the question directly.
What will happen to the Palestinians living in Gaza?
The president of the United States said that Washington would ask other neighboring countries to attend the displaced Palestinians of Gaza. Since January 25, he has repeatedly asked Egypt and Jordan to do so, a proposal rejected by them and other Arab states. The population of Gaza before the war was 2.3 million.
“On the other hand, we must go to other countries of interest with humanitarian hearts, and there are many of them who want to do this and build several domains that will finally be occupied by the 1.8 million Palestinians living in Gaza, ending death and destruction And destruction and destruction frankly, bad luck.
Who will live in Gaza rebuilt by Trump?
“I imagine the people of the world who lives there, the people of the world,” Trump said when asked who imagined living in Gaza.
“The Palestinians too, the Palestinians will live there, many people will live there,” he added without giving more details.
Does Trump plan to send US troops to execute your plan?
When asked if Washington would send to the US troops to Gaza under his proposal, Trump said: “We will do whatever it is necessary. If necessary, we will do it. We are going to take that piece. We are. I am going to develop it, create thousands and thousands of jobs, and it will be something that the entire Middle East can be very proud. “
But can we execute Trump’s plan?
International law strictly prohibits any attempt to forcefully transfer to a population. Gaza was already the home of the Palestinians who fled or were forced to leave their homes in the wars that surround the creation of Israel. Trump’s proposed plan, if executed, would imply forcing these Palestinians in other parts of the Arab world or even beyond.
The proposal also completely eliminates any possibility of a future solution of two states, and would probably be rejected by the Palestinians and the Arab world as an expulsion plan aimed at ethnic cleaning of the Palestinians of their lands.
Arab leaders have already categorically rejected the ideas of the president of the United States. In a statement on Saturday, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, the Palestinian Authority and the Arab League, said that such a measure could “threaten the stability of the region, risk expanding the conflict and undermine the perspectives of peace and coexistence among its peoples, “according to a BBC report.
However, under the conventions of Geneva, the forced elimination of the population could be allowed in specific situations such as evacuating a civilian population when their security is at risk or due to imperative military reasons, and also by transferring prisoners of war outside areas Combat to internment facilities, provided that the appropriate conditions are met. However, the key principle of such elimination should be justified for convincing reasons related to military security or need and not used for discriminatory or punitive purposes.
Situation in Gaza
The military assault of the US ally. Uu. Israel to Gaza has killed more than 47,000 Palestinians in the last 16 months, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health, and has led to accusations of genocide and war crimes that Israel denies.

The last bloodshed in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict of decades was activated on October 7, 2023, when Hamas attacked Israel, killed 1,200 and took about 250 hostages, according to the many Israeli.
