Donald Trump has suggested large numbers of Palestinians should leave Gaza to “just clean out” the whole strip, after ordering the US military to restart shipments of 2,000lb bombs to Israel.

The US president said he wanted Gaza residents to move to neighbouring nations, and that they could be displaced “temporarily or could be long-term”, after a phone call with Jordan’s King Abdullah on Saturday.

“I said to him: I’d love you to take on more because I’m looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now and it’s a mess, it’s a real mess. I’d like him to take people,” Trump said, when asked about the call.

He also suggested Egypt as a destination for Gaza residents, and said he would raise the issue with President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi on Sunday.

        Supplying the munitions for a genocidal carpet bombing campaign? That’s better?

      You keep asking like you WANT to know, but that’s just you sealioning like a good .ml chud.

      We all know what you’re doing and you’re detracting from any sentiment people outside your echochamber can form on your group.

      Personally I don’t enjoy genocide supporters so I’m going to tell you to fuck all the way off. You could suck start a shotgun for all I care 💁
