President Donald Trump says he’d like to see Arab nations increase the number of Palestinian refugees they are accepting from the Gaza Strip — potentially moving out enough of the population to “clean out” the area to create a virtual clean slate.

“Something has to happen,” Trump said. “But it’s literally a demolition site right now. Almost everything’s demolished, and people are dying there.” He added: “So, I’d rather get involved with some of the Arab nations, and build housing in a different location, where they can maybe live in peace for a change.”

    The so called Palestinian refugee camps ins Jordan look and operate like normal towns.

    Having been there and seen them, no they are not. In addition, Palestinians in Jordan do not have the same rights as Jordanians.

    I’m sure some would prefer living in Jordan.

    You have just breezed past the point that Jordan has one of the highest percentages of refugees in the world, they are not a rich country, and the fact that some colonialists want to dump more on them is a crime.
