What about establishing a military base there.
In coordination with Israel, it would be pretty powerful.

Bring back Mercantilism!

Trump should back off this idea. Biden tried a venture capital partnership with Ukraine. And we all know how that worked out.

It’s amazing how many on here simply don’t get that part of it and knee jerking to “NO!”

Crazy is what it is. The president used the entire time with Bibi today talking about how unsafe Gaza is and the Palestinians need to be moved to a safe place - Indonesia if Jordan or Eygpt won’t take them..Now “we’ll” take over the strip???

I watched a lot of that briefing or whatever it was late this afternoon and Bibi didn’t get a chance to speak a word!!! He had to be wondering why he made the trip. The president just repeated what he said over and over - the same answer to every question asked - over and over...

Gaza may be the 57th state, after we absorb Greenland, Canada, and some other places yet to be named.

“It’ll be the Riviera of the Middle East,” Trump just said at the joint WH presser.

It appears Trump’s still listening to Jared Kushner.

If "take over" means they will come in, raze the rubble, dismantle the tunnels, regrade the land, rebuild the area to modern standards, and then turn the region over to the former residents, why not?

I don’t get it. Why commit to the danger and money it would when we’re reducing the size of government and retooling the military?

“We took over Afghanistan. Until we didn’t.”

You can thank Biden and Democrats for that.

I made a joke to my Mom beforehand saying that Trump was going to build a Trump Tower in Gaza, hey I was close LOL. We have tried everything else, when the Palestinian Authority controlled Gaza, a total failure, every time someone controls Gaza it fails and Hamas takes over, we can try something new, just as long as NO troops are involved..I am absolutely AGAINST ANY US troop involvement

Interesting. Removing the Palis needs to be done. If so, then it may work. They should never return there.

...we have to ship every Gazan to Syria, Iraq or some other Middle Eastern hellhole, repopulate it with Americans and turn it into an American territory.

That might actually work. But even so, I would rather see the Israelis do all of that work. We should not be there.

Let Israelis take all the criticism for the mass expulsion of the Muslim population in Gaza. That is the only solution that was ever going to, or ever will, succeed in bringing peace to the region.

Just like things have been for the last four millennia.

It’s a $hithole, but can be as beautiful as Tel Aviv.

If Trump knows anything, it’s real estate.
