Donald Trump has said that Palestinians have “no alternative” but to leave Gaza due to the devastation left by Israel’s war on Hamas, in effect endorsing ethnic cleansing of the territory over the opposition of Palestinians and the neighbouring countries.
Speaking as he prepared to host Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, on Tuesday, Trump repeated the suggestion that Gaza’s population should be relocated to Jordan and Egypt – something both countries have firmly rejected.
Trump claimed Palestinians would “love to leave Gaza”, telling reporters: “I would think that they would be thrilled.”
The UN and aid organizations of course don’t publicize their inability to distribute aid inside Gaza. They will always blame Israel. However there are also statements by aid organizations and UN that they can’t distribute because of armed groups.
COGAT are the ones actually checking and counting all the trucks going into Gaza. Aid organizations only count their own trucks, so their numbers are always too low. Commercial trucks have been going into Gaza all the time as well.
