Hamas probably won't go for this as it still requires them to demilitarize and they, along with a lot of Palestinians in gaza, view that as a path to slow ethnic cleansing like what's happening in the west bank.

You'd think the "Hillary's gonna take our guns" Republicans would understand not wanting to surrender your guns and security to a government in general, much less one that's been trying to genocide you for decades.

I think there's a reason they might actually go for it.

If you give Gaza to Trump, Trump may feel the need to stick up "for" it. I don't know how likely that is, but clearly Palestine has exhausted all other options.

Given that Trump has publicly supported leveling Gaza and turning it into a luxury resort, I think it's very questionable what he would be sticking up "for"

The war isn't over and if anything this is just laying the groundwork to expand it

He is just explaining the thought process I think, not that it's a good idea.

When has Trump ever done anything with what he owns except drain it of all value and discard it?
