Literally just ethnic cleansing.
This honestly sounds like a PR/propaganda move. An attempt to dominate the news cycle and provide cover for on-going corruption and oligarch take-over schemes.
The US president simply saying these words puts huge numbers of people in the middle east at risk. Even many of his own voters are shocked, because he promised America First. Just because there is a lot of shit happening, doesn’t make this any less fucked.
It was in no way my intention to downplay how fucked this is. I am just pointing out that it’s worth evaluating and countering agitprop methods.
Exactly. How do “journalists” hear something like this and not immediately ask “so what else did he do just now that we should really be covering”?
Steve Bannon has previously explained this very tactic of “flooding the zone” because the media are “lazy”. And journalists still let themselves get caught on this superficial grind.
Because as long as they get clicks, they don’t care, and anything with “Gaza” or “Palestine” in it will generate those clicks. Plus, running such stories is substantially less likely to result in someone lighting a fire underneath them then the other stuff they should be covering.
I don’t think so, I mean two things can be true at the same time but to me it sounds to his negotiating tactics. It’s frankly disgusting that he use this as a bargaining chip to do this but it seems like it might motivate Jordan/Egypt to lend humanitarian aid to rebuild Gaza to keep them out instead of the US covering all of it. Of course it should be Israel paying but that’s a long shot.
The negotiating tactic angle is also very realistic. But the point remains, the statement in of itself is agitprop initiative.
“Hitler wants Germany to ‘take over’ Poland and own it ‘long term’ with Jews resettled”
Just a matter of time till Trump resorts to just gassing.
Who said it wasn’t somewhere in project 2025?
Germany would happily dig up the old blueprints
AfD just found a new product we can export: Zyklon B.
Time to make Gaza great again, I guess.
