lol....

I do think the US will, for the most part, be supportive of Israel.....until they’re not. Biden sure didn’t do them any favors.

Trumps trying to bring less war to the world as when he was in charge before....he’s mopping up the deck Biden left.

Agree, this is a fascinating administration & unbelievably they are just starting.

Of all things possible…no one saw this coming… (apparently) there were no leaks.

The Riviera of the Middle East.” Trump’s Gaza initiatives are bold, innovative and represent a completely new approach to not only stabilizing, but completely transforming this volatile strip of land.

Viewing this through the lens of Vietnam, Iraq, or Afghanistan is a mistake. I don’t quite yet know how to label it, but it isn’t nation building. It isn’t regime stabilization. It goes beyond sending peacekeepers and/or creating a buffer zone. And it isn’t altruistic. It’s important to view this through an America First & Foremost lens.

Nah…not a neocon, and I am a credible poster who knows how to not tell others to “shut up” simply because I believe differently based on evidence. I also know how o not resort to name calling.

My post came from a 2,770-word essay I did to see if the Charles Krauthammer article below made sense. Well, I covered the first 90 years of the 20th century and decided it did. The hatred precludes any moderate Arab you might meet in this country from having influence and pretty much guarantees their assassination in Gaza.

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: Palestinians don’t want peace with Israel— ever (You get redirected to the place below)

Krauthammer on Israel-Palestinian peace talks: 'The answer's always no'

As Golda Meir said, “We will have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us.”

And where are you going to put all the Palestinians? NOBODY wants them. They just create problems wherever they go.

It’ll be his carrot to the Saudis. US takes it over but the Saudis build and develop it using Saudi/Arab money. And normalize relations with Israel in the process and with other Gulf Arab states, further isolating Iran

Agreed, prefect Trump plan. We pay Egypt to take all the Palestinians and keep them over there and maybe in Libya. Could ship some to live in Syria, Iraq or Iran, maybe Afghanistan

He’s shaking the box to get everyone to start thinking out of it.

An amazing, out of left field idea.

Would never happen with anyone in charge other than Trump.

The bottom line: Much of what President Trump said would take years, or is fantastical, but the underlying message is clear: The 2 State Solution is kaput. The Palis forfeited there right to a State on October.7th.

I think it is a great idea and I think he has a good solution not based on past failures. It might just be a no go zone for everyone, therefor a buffer zone for Israel. Better than the fake we need money then give it to the terrorists we have been doing for 50 some years

Hamas will cease to exist in Gaza within 6 months.

The Israelis have been doing their best to exterminate Hamas since shortly after Oct 7 2023. They're still there, and I don't believe they'll be gone in 6 months.

We kept hearing stuff like this about the Taliban 24 years ago. We need to stay out of this conflict.

Awesome idea, though I wonder how many divisions it’ll take.

The alternative view: Oct. 7 was allowed to happen/abetted as the pretense to clear out and take over Gaza, worth billions and billions and billions by both land and sea.

Gaza forfeited any sympathy on October.7th. Netenyahu has been way too soft.
