Amid all the hot air and narcissism that has accompanied Donald Trump’s appearance at Davos so far, especially the launch of the Board of Peace, the US team laid out some significant and concrete next steps for the future of Gaza.

First of all, the crossing between Gaza and Egypt is to be reopened for traffic in both directions next week for the first time since it was seized by Israeli troops in May 2024.

The announcement was made by Ali Shaath, a Palestinian engineer and former deputy transport minister who has been appointed the head of an interim Palestinian administration, the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza.

Jared Kushner also took part in the presentation and laid out an ambitious plan for the next 100 days, including the rebuilding of basic infrastructure - water, electricity, sewage, hospitals and bakeries.

The map completely ignored historical ownership rights of the Palestinians who have lived in Gaza for generations, but it will also alarm those in the Israeli government who are seeking to displace the Palestinian population altogether and build Israeli settlements on Gaza. Kushner’s plan makes clear Gaza would be Palestinian run.

No one should be surprised:

trump doesn't want Israel to have the land, he wants to control it via a Palestinian puppet to do real estate grifts.

Why always with the weakest possible messaging? Genocide. The word is: genocide. Not ’seeking to displace’. Good grief.
