Trump Has a Cunning Strategy for Gaza
Join your allies in a mission to demolish a location, then make a swift return to reconstruct it. However, the initial step involves expelling all the locals and claiming the territory as your own – that seems to be the idea.. source:TROIB RTS

**Help your allies destroy a place, then swoop in to rebuild, but first kick out all the locals and annex the land – that seems to be the idea.**
What could Donald Trump and Bianca Censori possibly have in common?
Trump is the U.S. president and a close associate of Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a man wanted by the International Court of Justice “for the war crimes of starvation […] and of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts.” Censori is a highly visual artist and the wife of the publicly unstable rapper Kanye West.
Despite their seemingly disparate roles, both Trump and Censori have consistently engaged in provocative actions, often pushing the boundaries of what might be expected of them.
After her bold display of full frontal de facto nudity at the Grammys, it seems Censori is left with the option of live intercourse to maintain her shock value. For Trump, however, he recently delivered such a staggering act of shock that it’s hard to imagine how he could top it again.
During a visit from Netanyahu to Washington – marking him as the first foreign leader to visit officially – Trump declared that the U.S. aims to annex the Gaza Strip, ethnically cleanse its entire Palestinian population, and subsequently transform the area into a luxurious “riviera” of high-end real estate and businesses.
Meanwhile, the Palestinian victims of this plan would be de facto expelled to neighboring countries like Jordan and Egypt—both U.S. “allies” with their own explicit objections—except, of course, for Israel, which is effectively considered Palestine. One should note that Trump’s ventures suggest Gaza can indeed be rebuilt; the obstacle is not technical but political. He proposes revitalization only after a violent mass eviction, aptly described as the real estate-with-genocidal-oomph business model.
While Trump’s deeply troubling views on Gaza have garnered significant attention, there are two alarming scandals at play. The very act of receiving Netanyahu is offensive, regardless of whether the entire U.S. "elite" pretends this is normal or even worth celebrating.
Meeting the Israeli leader is a disgrace because Netanyahu is not merely the subject of an ICC warrant for war crimes and crimes against humanity. He is also one of the principal architects of Israel’s genocide against Palestinians, the forefront of an oppressive apartheid regime, and a warmonger involved in military assaults against neighboring countries through bombing, assassination, and direct invasion.
Israel stands out as the principal source of violence and injustice in the Middle East. Beyond that, its ongoing settler-colonial actions to dispossess, ethnically cleanse, and kill Palestinians consistently disrupt global stability.
Moreover, the reason American presidents should typically avoid careful association with Netanyahu—although they do not—is financial. Israel has executed the most successful foreign influence campaign in modern history, even eclipsing those of the U.S. itself. The American establishment has clearly been the primary target.
In a more ideal world, which seems distant, Americans would be resisting rather than celebrating Israeli leaders—perhaps organizing an AIPAC tea party—given how no other nation has done so much to undermine U.S. sovereignty and erode what little democracy remains. This is not a hidden conspiracy; it’s acknowledged, as the Jerusalem Post has recently celebrated Zionist success in profoundly affecting U.S. elections.
It's also widely recognized that Trump embodies this willing embrace of foreign influence among America’s elite. For example, Zionist mega-donor Miriam Adelson donated $137 million to his campaign, solidifying her family among his top supporters. Her backing of Israeli expansionist policies is well-documented. Since taking office, Trump has demonstrated he will repay those debts, such as sending 2,000-pound bunker buster bombs to Israel and lifting even the Biden administration’s weak sanctions against ultra-violent settlers in the West Bank, who are actively engaging in their own attacks against the local Palestinian population.
The overtly treacherous willingness of the U.S. elite to be swayed by foreign interests, particularly Israeli ones, is a clear indication of why, in a rational world, Israeli leaders would be met with widespread disdain from Americans.
The second scandal surrounding Netanyahu’s visit is Trump's initiative to continue the Israeli campaign of genocidal ethnic cleansing. It doesn’t matter that Trump feigns ignorance regarding the implications of his plan. His hypocritical invocation of “humanitarian” intentions to "save" Gaza’s Palestinians is, to put it bluntly, disingenuous.
The U.S. president has publicly revealed plans to engage in an illegal act under international law with Israel. This is not a new phenomenon, yet there are two noteworthy factors regarding Trump's current declarations.
Firstly, there’s the backdrop of extreme and deadly violence Israel has inflicted since October 2023. Trump continually references “1.7 or 1.8” million Palestinians living in Gaza. However, it is widely accepted that before the Israeli genocide campaign, Gaza’s population was at least 2.1 to 2.3 million. It is clear that Trump is aware that not just tens of thousands but hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have likely perished due to bombings, snipers, mass executions, starvation, and diseases exacerbated by the complete destruction of infrastructure. Such predictions were notably made by the esteemed medical journal *The Lancet* back in July 2024.
In light of this—and considering the long history of Israeli violence, especially the systematic devastation of Gaza since 2005—Trump's America now intends to reward these actions. All the Western rhetoric about not “rewarding the aggressor”? It appears to apply only when the aggressor is a “certifiable Israeli genocider.” In the immediate context, this American message can only encourage Netanyahu and his allies to abandon the fragile ceasefire, marked by ongoing killings.
This is troubling enough, but there’s also a broader implication: Israel relies on U.S. support for its extreme genocidal and wartime policies. What we're witnessing is a twisted collaboration: the U.S. initially provides Israel with everything necessary for the destruction of Gaza, which is then reduced to ruins, and finally, Washington “generously” suggests that the only method for restoring the land is through the complete dispossession of its Palestinian inhabitants. This represents a significant template for the whole world: create chaos first, then arrive to “save” the wreckage by claiming it. Should we allow the U.S. to succeed this time, it certainly won't be the last.
This leads us to one potential positive aspect of Trump's brutal approach: unlike his predecessor Biden, Trump is not even attempting to disguise his imperialistic intentions or his complicity with Israel. In contrast to the Biden administration’s nauseating hypocrisy in their collusion, Trump and his followers present a more straightforward agenda.
However, this does not imply that Trump's approach is morally superior. If you're still trying to identify fine distinctions between the vicious strategies of Trump and those of the Democrats, it may be time to reassess. The underlying malevolence stems from the same increasingly deranged U.S. establishment. Yet Trump's forthrightness may help the world recognize the pressing need to “balance” against Washington, which many view as the most dangerous rogue state on the planet. His unfiltered approach may facilitate acknowledgment of this fact: while multipolarity is essential, humanity must collectively work to contain and deter the United States—proactively.
