Israeli settler leaders have welcomed President Trump’s call for Palestinians to be removed from the Gaza Strip, which would amount to ethnic cleansing, and are calling for his plans to be implemented.
On Tuesday, Trump had called for Palestinians to be removed from Gaza “permanently” before announcing a plan for a US “takeover” of the Strip. The White House walked his plan back slightly, saying the idea was for “temporary relocation,” but it’s unlikely Israel would let Palestinians return.
According to The Times of Israel, Israel Ganz, head of a settler Group known as the Yesha Council, said Trump’s plan amounted to “declaring an end to the Palestinian dream to destroy Israel through Gaza or the establishment of a Palestinian state in the heart of the land of Israel.”
Ganz said Israel would “adopt Trump’s vision today, and translate it into action” and called for the plan also to include the Israeli annexation of the Israeli-occupied West Bank. President Trump said on Tuesday that he was making a decision on the potential annexation within the next four weeks.
Itamar Ben Gvir, a West Bank settler and leader of Israel’s Jewish Power party, said he would rejoin the Israeli government if Trump’s plan is implemented. Ben Gvir quit Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition government over the Gaza ceasefire plan.
“I haven’t sewn a new ministerial suit yet, but there is no doubt that the chances of Jewish Power returning to the government have increased,” he said. “The ball is now in the hands of the prime minister. As soon as we start and there is an intention to implement it – I’m back.”
Ben Gvir is a major proponent of Gaza and the establishment of Jewish settlements in the Strip. Nachala, another settler organization, called for the building of settlements if Trump’s plan is implemented.
“On the assumption that Trump’s declaration about transferring Gazans to other countries is translated into practical action, settlements should be quickly built across the entire Gaza Strip,” Nachala said.
So excited that Gvir might rejoin the government–not.
Need to open a bottle of champagne and pure it on his head…!
And by "bottle of champagne" we mean "flask of champagne", and by "flask of champagne" we mean "flask of hydrofluoric acid".
(I chose HF because it's a particularly vicious acid, and the only one I ever worked with that is sold with its own antidote supplied.)
Ben Gvir, Ben Goeth Away…Ben Cometh Back ?
Author, you are a liar. Trump did not call for ethnic cleansing.
This is a problem Trump inherited from Crook Biden. Did you ever criticize him?
Trump said the Palestinians could come back. He said he wanted them to have productive jobs, the zionists would hate that.
There is no such plan or declaration from Trump as you claimed.
Be careful…!
Yes I agree.

Are you serious? He criticized Biden constantly.
There is no such plan or declaration from Trump as you claimed.
Other than him saying it.
You have never really listened to Trump or watched his actions, it's all "Trump is the best, the savior of mankind" kind of a thing.
No, I don't have TDS since I voted for the guy in 2016. Too many things he did and did not do but promised, made me realize that a lot was nothing more than smoke and mirrors. But now this time around he is actually becoming dangerous for America adn the world. Don't get sidetracked about some of the good things he is doing, that is necessary to put the followers to sleep or keep them in the cheering section.

I think Trump Derangement Syndrome is, and might always have been, a clinical diagnosis of Trump's cult voters.
It’s both.
I've said my Carolina Panthers could win the Super Bowl this month. COULD.
Does not mean they will, or that any actual detectable possibility exists.
Final President Trump offhandedly said the Palestinians COULD come back. All that's required is for the hateful, genocidal Apartheid State of Israel to suddenly and profoundly alter the core and all extraneous tenets of State policy towards "those non-human animals" the ASI leaders despise so openly. Easy peasy.
"Did you ever criticize him" Either you are joking or you neve read DeCamp's columns last year. Which is it?
Evil supports evil…!
"I haven’t sewn a new ministerial suit yet…"
Is…is that A Thing that Israeli cabinet ministers do ?
Or is that some weird local idiom ?
