| Report: Jared Kushner behind Trump’s plan to take over Gaza |
| 2025-02-06 |
| [IsraelTimes] Former White House senior adviser Jared Kushner was reportedly behind his father-in-law US President Donald Trump’s plan, announced yesterday, for the US to take over Gaza and clear it of Palestinians. Kushner was involved in crafting Trump’s prepared remarks that he made alongside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House, Puck news reports, citing an anonymous source familiar with the matter. Netanyahu had not requested that Trump pursue such a plan ahead of time, Puck adds. Kushner appeared to hint at the entire idea in a speech he gave last year. “Gaza’s waterfront property — it could be very valuable, if people would focus on building up livelihoods,” Kushner said during an event at Harvard. “It’s a little bit of an unfortunate situation there, but I think from Israel’s perspective, I would do my best to move the people out and then clean it up,” Kushner added. “But I don’t think that Israel has stated that they don’t want the people to move back there afterward.” Related: Jared Kushner 12/19/2024 IDF orders evacuations in central Gaza amid reports of imminent hostage deal Jared Kushner 12/09/2024 Saudi royal says Israel ‘genocidal,’ hopes Netanyahu will be brought before ICC Jared Kushner 12/06/2024 Trump taps businessman and former Abraham Accords negotiator as hostage point-man, and more noms |

| #1 Trump is a billionaire real estate developer. I doubt second fiddle came up with the plan. |
