"The US will take over the Gaza Strip."

Trump: "The US will take over the Gaza Strip."

Trump: "The US will take over the Gaza Strip."

End snip

News conference with Bibi.
I'm guessing this won't be to help the citizens of Gaza, but only to build Donald's shore facing hotel.

Who knew.

He also said he’s going to level it. I guess that’s step 1 for his golf course.

Trump is seriously not right in the head. He wanders around saying nothing but generic bullshit and ends with we are going to do a US military takeover of Gaza because it has been 'very unlucky'.

Bibi knows how to stroke the ego of the orange idiot.

You know, the one where Trump thinks he's the sovereign and our taxpayer dollars fund his family's wealth.

Why isn’t he being arrested? I can’t believe TSF would consider sending US troops to Gaza so he can build hotels and golf courses for himself and Jared. It’s obscene.

25 miles of more or less pristine real estate! Probably to be underwritten by Jared's Saudi investment fund and available through Eric's office, with suitable kickbacks to Bibi. Get 'em while they're hot! Well, not like today hot. Wait until after the Palestinians and unexploded ordinance get cleared. All oligarchs welcome.

41. Netanyahu: "You are the greatest friend Israel has ever had in the White House."
Wed Feb 5, 2025, 04:43 AM
Feb 2025

Netanyahu says that in his 2nd term, President Trump “picked up right where you left off” — bringing a hostage deal, revoking sanctions on settlers, pulling funding for UNRWA, and applying maximum pressure on Iran. “All this in just 2 weeks. Can you imagine where we’ll be in 4 years?”

“We’ve defeated some of America’s worst enemies,” Netanyahu says, referring to killing terrorists last year. He adds, “To secure our future and bring peace to the region we have to finish the job…I believe your willingness to puncture conventional thinking that has failed time and again, to think outside the box, will help us achieve these goals…You say things others refuse to say.”
Netanyahu also states, “Iran tried to kill us both…we’re both committed to rolling back Iran’s aggression in the region and ensuring Iran never has a nuclear weapon.”

Concluding his remarks, Netanyahu declares, “I think peace between Israel and Saudi Arabia is not only feasible, but it’s going to happen.”

"Trump: We are considering our position on Israel annexing Judea and Samaria. We will make an announcement about it soon. Trump said he will make a statement on the matter of Israeli sovereignty in Judea and Samaria in the next 4 weeks."
