President Trump says the US will take over the Gaza Strip WASHINGTON — President Trump proposed a US takeover of the Gaza Strip Tuesday — shortly after proposing removing “all” Palestinians living there.
“The US will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job with it too,” Trump said at a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“We’ll own it and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on the site, level the site, and get rid of the destroyed buildings — level it out and create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and housing for the people of the area.”
Trump said that the roughly 2 million Gaza Strip residents would be relocated to neighboring countries.
“Just can’t go back. If you go back, it’s going to end up the same way it has for 100 years,” he said at the press conference.
Trump said he would deploy US troops to the territory “if it’s necessary.”

Wow!
First time I thought Trump was LYING! How could he POSSIBLY take over The Gaza Strip??
That’s going to be interesting.
Marshall Plan for the Middle East. He thinks WAY out c of the box.
Did we take over any land in the Marshall Plan??
ay first i thought i saw Bibi smirking when Pres Trum said that- but Bibe then said that he and Pres Trump ‘had been discussing” the issue- and then said that Pres Trump has visions that no one else has had and sees the world in a unique manner-
I’m not sure I want the US to hold territory in the Middle East.
Who will take the Palis? They cannot live peacefully. Even the women and children are quarrelsome.
Has Trump been snookered?
Common sense solution.
THIS IS THE LORD’S TIME FOR WORLDWIDE REIVIAL.
Is anything DJT does not interesting? Lol!
Not going to happen. No one wants them.
Candice Owens is going to have a sroke.
Let the Romans do it.
The Romans now how to bring order.
Let’s face it, they’re the only ones who could in a place like this.
Plenty of room for illegal immigrants
That is proably Trump’s point.
We won’t own it. Perhaps think of it as post ww2 Germany or Japan. We’re going to help Israel “build back better” in the area.
You’re right about that!
