Times Of Israel: Israelis respond to Trump’s Gaza proposal with jubilation, disbelief, and dark humor
In Tel Aviv, giant billboards thanking Donald Trump appeared following his controversial statement that the U.S. would take over Gaza, prompting mixed reactions from Israelis. While some expressed excitement over the potential dismantling of Hamas, others were skeptical or horrified, questioning the feasibility and implications of such a plan.
The White House later clarified that Trump did not intend to permanently resettle Palestinians or commit U.S. resources for rebuilding. Opinions varied widely, with some believing Trump's proposal could lead to a positive change, while others viewed it as unrealistic and ignorant of the complexities involved.
Human Events: RABBI MICHAEL BARCLAY: Here’s how Trump’s plan for the ‘Riviera of the Middle East’ can be willed from dream into reality
The author outlines a vision for peace in the Middle East, emphasizing the need to eliminate Hamas and redefine Gaza as a prosperous entity, separate from the concept of a Palestinian state. The plan includes transforming Gaza into a resort destination and business hub, with international investment.
Challenges include overcoming entrenched narratives about Palestine and addressing the integration of self-identified Palestinians into neighboring countries. The author argues that with proper management and investment, Gaza could thrive, ultimately leading to a shift in regional dynamics and perceptions of terrorism.
