It's Israel's plan of ethnic cleansing, always has been. Netanyahu was enabled, but it was always for Israel. The end goal was to "take over Gaza" as just announced. They're not doing it for Trump.

This whole "Trump Resorts" thing, whether people realize it or not, just serves to deflect blame and accountability for a genocidal state engaged in ethnic cleansing. As if the last nearly two years hadn't happened.
