The U.S. military has stated it is willing to consider "all options" for Gaza following President Trump's declaration that he wants the U.S. to take control and redevelop the war-torn region. This announcement was made by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth before his meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the Pentagon.
Trump's Shock Proposal Sparks Global Condemnation
President Trump's proposal to seize Gaza and transform it into the "Riviera of the Middle East" has triggered international criticism, with many labeling it as "ethnic cleansing." The plan involves U.S. forces taking over the enclave and relocating millions of Palestinians to Egypt and Jordan, although the White House clarified that no commitment to deploying troops has been made.
Fractured Reactions to Trump's Plan
Trump's ambitious plan, which could take decades and cost billions, has divided opinions in Washington. While Republicans have largely supported the President's policies, some are distancing themselves from the Gaza proposal. Legal questions also remain regarding the U.S.'s justification for assuming control of the territory.
Israeli PM Netanyahu's Response
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu commended Trump for his fresh approach and innovative ideas, stating that the President was "thinking outside the box." Despite criticism from allies, Trump maintains that the plan has widespread support.
White House Clarifies Stance on Troop Deployment
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt emphasized that Trump has not committed to sending U.S. troops to Gaza as part of the rebuilding process. The focus is on ensuring stability in the region and temporarily relocating Palestinians in order to facilitate the enclave's reconstruction.
