Trump’s plans to turn Gaza into a ‘Riviera’ were met with a split camp, with some praising his creativity, and others trying to return the focus back to the hostages. Following the unprecedented announcement by US President Donald Trump that he plans to take over Gaza for the near future, Israeli politicians and key figures have started expressing their views on social media.
Trump’s statements were made during an Oval Office meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu. The US president stated his desire to turn Gaza into a wealthy Middle Eastern oasis with significant employment opportunities. He also said he wished to relocate Gazan civilians to neighboring countries who would not “say no” to housing them.
National Unity chairman Benny Gantz said that Trump’s statement served as “further proof of the deep alliance between the United States and Israel.”
“President Trump has shown, and not for the first time, that he is a true friend of Israel and will continue to stand by it on issues important to strengthening its security.”
He praised Trump’s “creative, original and interesting thinking” circa his plans for Gaza and said these ideas must be considered alongside the war goals and the return of the hostages.
