“I think President Trump’s proposal is the first new idea in years and it has the potential to change everything in Gaza.” Netanyahu said it was described as the “right way” to the future of the region.
According to Netanyahu, Trump’s plan does not involve U.S. military intervention, but provides Palestinians with the opportunity to temporarily relocate while Gaza undergoes reconstruction.
“Trump is all saying: “I want to open the door and give them an option to temporarily relocate when we rebuild the place.”Netanyahu explained.
“Trump never said he hoped the U.S. military would do the job. Guess what? We’ll do this,” he declared.
Netanyahu believes that Trump’s approach marks a counter-argument to previous failed strategies.
“The same old, the same old, the same old – We leave, Gaza is occupied again by the terrorists used by these terrorists as bases to attack Israel…it will not go anywhere,” he said.I think we should pursue it. ”
However, he acknowledged a key challenge: ensuring a host country willing to accept displaced Palestinians. He also said that any Palestinian who wishes to return to Gaza must “reject terrorism.”
For Palestinians, the idea of being forced to leave Gaza has caused painful historical memories of Nakba in 1948, a massive displacement that took place during Israel’s creation.
Netanyahu opposes concerns, believing that allowing Gaza people to leave is humanitarian.
“Everyone describes Gaza as the world’s largest open-air prison,He said. “Let them go out and let them leave. It is not forced expulsion, not ethnic cleansing, but lifting people from all these countries and all these kind people are talking about open air prisons. Why do you put them in jail?transparent
