Donald Trump has said that Palestinians have “no alternative” but to leave Gaza due to the devastation left by Israel’s war on Hamas, in effect endorsing ethnic cleansing of the territory over the opposition of Palestinians and the neighbouring countries.
Speaking as he prepared to host Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, on Tuesday, Trump repeated the suggestion that Gaza’s population should be relocated to Jordan and Egypt – something both countries have firmly rejected.
Trump claimed Palestinians would “love to leave Gaza”, telling reporters: “I would think that they would be thrilled.”

It’s different. Not “better”.
Not different. The Clinton admin invented the term whole cloth in order to not have to get involved in Rwanda.
It is not different. They used genocide to ethnically cleanse Palestine.
Please delineate the differences.
Nono you see, Trump loves Palestinians, he’s moving them to a safe space so they don’t get genocided again.
Their land? Well he will take care of it in the meantime… What a humanitarian guy! /s
People really seem to think there is some sort of major dividing line between ethnic cleansing and genocide and I do not get it.
The dividing line is how good your PR is.
While your equivocate, people are literally dying.
But as long as you feel ok.
That’s literally been the last year and you felt fine the whole time.
Please, tell me more about how I feel.
