Earlier this month, the president said he favored taking control of Gaza and displacing the Palestinian population of the devastated seaside enclave. Over the course of several days, he repeatedly waved aside objections to the idea, including flat-out rejections from the leaders of Egypt and Jordan.
At the time, Mr. Trump said that he would be able to persuade the leaders of those two countries — and potentially others in the region — to accept the Palestinians through the force of his will.
“They say they’re not going to accept,” Mr. Trump said. “I say they will.”
But in a telephone interview with a Fox News host on Friday, Mr. Trump seemed to concede that his efforts at persuasion had failed and the refusal by Egypt and Jordan to accept displaced Gazans would make the idea unworkable.
I feel like this is an indicator that we’re expecting this cease fire to be a short one.
Well Israel dropped leaflets to move south, then continued to bomb the south. Now they have dropped leaflets to leave completely. Israel likely is going to slaughter anyone who stays there. When Trump came in he authorized 2,000+ pound bombs that weren’t previously allowed to be used in the civilian areas by the Biden administration. My guess is the ceasefire for them was just to buy time to stock up and ready the larger bombs for use, and give the people of Gaza a chance to get settled back in or leave. Now they dropped their pamphlets and we likely will see them level Gaza to its entirety. Unless N and T a different final solution.
Biden allowed the use of 2000 pound bombs on civilian areas. He stopped one shipment of them.
Yeah, I wish he wouldnt have allowed any of them to be sent, but his reasoning for stopping the shipment was fear of further use in Gaza. There really wasn’t any regulation on where they were being used it seems. He just decided to stop them being sent after Congress approved the sale of them. Then Trump said his view was I believe in Peace through strength, and started them being sent again
Expect to see a lot more of this from The Fanta Menace’s “Peace Plans”
All of this was just a distraction from what’s happening inside the US right now.
This is trumps “peace making” genius. Completely fuck one side over so they have to regroup and come back later to the surprise of no one.
It’s almost like the problems are bigger that even the POTUS. Who knew?
The Art of the Deal
And nobody ever considered Trump an artist.
Except of the con.
Was what I was thinking, but even in that aspect he lacks artistry, hrs a con man
Once again proof that there is no difference between Trump and Biden. Biden tried doing this quietly during Israel’s invasion of Rafah. Trump said the quiet part out loud.
Both times the plan halted because Egypt and Jordan refused to play along.
Once again proof that there is no difference between Trump and Biden.
Jesus Christ… 🤦♂️
ah you’re one of the fundamentalists that help get trump elected
So fucking stupid.
Evidence? Biden was a consistent albeit not forceful voice calling for restraint.
By bypassing congress to send bombs.
Biden was no doubt in Israel’s camp. However, he was still a moderate in that camp pushing for restrain, humanitarian aid, etc.
Trump has essentially been encouraging Bibi to take off the gloves and pound Gaza.
Different rhethoric. Same actions. Moderate genocide by the way.
Another reminder that Gaza looks the way it does 100% because of Biden. Nothing has happened under Trump so far except a “ceasefire”.
Nothing has happened under trump?
Did you forget Covid and the millions that died?
Fucking absolute idiot.
The cease fire was primarily Biden’s victory although really the war had reached a stage where there was a high chance it would have emerged without pressure.
The consistent pressure by the Biden administration also demonstrably forced Israel to show some restraint.
Estimates suggest roughly 50,000 Gazans died. An absolute tragedy but if Trump were in charge, I’d bet that it’ll be much higher.
No the ceasefire was all Trump. Biden did nothing to achieve it. It came directly after Trump sent Steve Witkoff.
Oh fuck off
