Debate

Gaza: Humanitarian Situation

Contribution

Over the weekend, President Trump inserted himself into the debate on the future of Gaza and its people by saying, “You’re talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing.” Is it the Government’s view that he was talking about the forced displacement or ethnic cleansing of almost 2 million Palestinians from their land? If that is not the Government’s understanding of what he meant, what exactly is their interpretation of what President Trump said?
