In Dearborn, a largely Arab American town where Trump made gains, his plan to take over Gaza is met with ‘disgust’

Summary

Palestinian Americans in Dearborn, Michigan, reacted with anger and defiance to Trump’s proposal for Palestinians to leave Gaza

Many likened it to historic displacement events like the 1948 Nakba, when hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were forced from their homes.

Many see it as supporting Israel’s policy of ethnic cleansing, while some Trump supporters argue he was merely “testing the waters.”

Activist Amer Zahr noted that many in Dearborn secretly voted for Trump but have since gone silent.
