The American president proposes to take charge of the band and to reinstall the Palestinians, which caused indignation.
US President Donald Trump says the United States should take over, shave on the ground and redevelop Gaza.
He also reiterated a proposal to force 2.3 million Palestinians in Egypt and Jordan by force.
The president made these comments and other controversial comments at a press conference at the White House, where he welcomed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
His remarks have been described as dangerous, irresponsible, absurd and equivalent ethnic cleaning.
So, is this boastful deactivated – designed to make the headlines and attention – or Trump believes that his plans are realistic?
