Table of Contents
Washington,D.C.– February 10, 2025 – In a recent interview broadcasted by Fox News, former U.S.President Donald Trump proposed a controversial plan to resettle Palestinians from the Gaza Strip in the United States.The proposal comes amidst the ongoing ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, which has seen Palestinians returning to their homes in northern Gaza.
During the interview, Trump emphasized the uninhabitable conditions of the post-war gaza Strip, stating, “The Gaza Strip is not suitable for living, and Palestinians do not have the right to return to the local area. They should move to the United States to create a safe community away from danger.”
Trump detailed his vision for these communities, saying, “We will build lovely communities for 1.9 million people.A safe community may be 5,6,or 2.” He further elaborated, “But we will choose a little further from where they are to build a safe community, where they are out of danger. Simultaneously occurring, I will have that. Think of it as a future real estate advancement.”
When asked by Fox News host Bret Baier if Palestinians have the right to return to the Gaza Corridor, Trump firmly responded, “No, they won’t, because they will have better homes, much better.In other words, I’m talking about building long-lasting homes for them, because if they have to return now, it will take many years to do so, and it’s not suitable for living there.”
Trump also mentioned the potential timeline and international cooperation for this proposal, stating, “It may take a few years to achieve. I’m talking about starting construction, I think I can reach an agreement with Jordan, I think I can reach an agreement with Egypt. We’ll give them a year, in billions of dollars.”
The Ministry of Health of the Gaza Corridor under Hamas reported on February 8 that the war between Hamas and Israel, which began in October 2023, has resulted in at least 48,181 deaths in the Gaza Strip. The ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel, which came into effect on January 19, has not prevented the continuous increase in the death toll as bodies are constantly found under the rubble.
ABC News reported that Trump will meet with King Abdullah II of Jordan at the White House tomorrow. Jordan firmly opposes the U.S. proposal to accept more palestinians.

Interview with Dr. Mahmoud Al-Sharif, Middle East Affairs Expert
Dr. Mahmoud Al-Sharif is a well-respected Middle East affairs expert and a Senior Editor at World-Today-News.com.
Proposal Overview
Dr.Al-Sharif: Dr. Mahmoud, can you share your initial thoughts on Trump’s proposal to resettle Palestinians in the U.S.?
Dr. Mahmoud Al-Sharif: Certainly. President Trump’s proposal is quite controversial. It suggests that the Gaza Strip is uninhabitable and Palestinians should be moved to the United States for safety. This is a significant shift from traditional resettlement policies and could have profound implications for both regions.
Conditions in Gaza
Dr.Al-Sharif: How do you see the current conditions in Gaza influencing this proposal?
Dr. Mahmoud Al-Sharif: the conflict between Hamas and Israel has left Gaza in ruins. the Ministry of Health reported at least 48,181 deaths, which highlights the urgency of the humanitarian crisis. The proposal to resettle Palestinians reflects the sheer scale of destruction and the need for a long-term solution beyond temporary fixes.
International Cooperation
Dr.Al-Sharif: Jordan and Egypt have been indicated as key players in this plan. Do you think these countries will readily cooperate?
Dr. Mahmoud Al-Sharif: It is uncertain whether Jordan and Egypt will fully cooperate. While President Trump expressed confidence in reaching agreements with them, their stance could impact the feasibility of this proposal. International cooperation is critical for any prosperous resettlement program, and any resistance from these neighbors could complicate matters.
domestic Response and Opposition
Dr. Al-Sharif: What do you see as the biggest challenges from a domestic perspective?
Dr. Mahmoud Al-Sharif: The biggest challenge will likely come from domestic opposition. While the proposal aims to create “lovely communities” for Palestinians, the reception in the United States might potentially be mixed. Public opinion will be crucial in determining the success of this plan, and significant support from the American public will be needed.
Potential benefits and concerns
Dr. Al-Sharif: What are some potential benefits and concerns related to this resettlement plan?
Dr.Mahmoud Al-Sharif: On the one hand, this proposal could provide a sustainable solution for those displaced by the conflict. However, concerns include the practical implementation, cost, and integration of such a large number of individuals into American society. Moreover, the ongoing tension between Israel and the Palestinian territories adds complexity to this proposal.
Summary and Outlook
Dr. Al-Sharif: what is your overall outlook on the proposal and its potential impact on U.S.-Middle East relations?
Dr.mahmoud Al-Sharif: The proposal is ambitious and complex, requiring significant international cooperation and public support. While it has the potential to provide a lasting solution, the challenges are considerable. it underscores the need for a comprehensive approach to resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, moving beyond instantaneous solutions and focusing on long-term peace and stability.
