| US national security adviser says allies encouraged to suggest own solutions to Gaza |
| 2025-02-06 |
| [IsraelTimes] US National Security Adviser Mike Waltz suggests that President Donald Trump’s plan to take over Gaza need not be the final word on the matter and that allies are encouraged to provide their own alternatives to rebuilding Gaza. “Everybody’s heart breaks for the Palestinian people across the region, and rightly so, but [Trump is] not seeing any realistic solutions on how those miles and miles and miles of debris are going to be cleared, how those unexploded bombs are going to be removed, how these people are physically going to live [there] for at least a decade, if not longer that it’s going to take to do this [reconstruction],” Waltz says during an interview with CBS News. “The fact that nobody has a realistic solution, and he puts some very bold, fresh, new ideas out on the table, I don’t think should be criticized in any way. It’s going to bring the entire region to come up with their own solutions if they don’t like Mr. Trump’s solution,” he adds. Asked whether it matters if the Palestinians might oppose Trump’s plan to remove them from Gaza, Waltz responds, “Of course it does.” “But one of the key points President Trump made last night was, ‘Tell me what real better alternatives they’ve ever been offered?'” He argues that what Trump is offering is far more enticing for Palestinians than their current situation in Gaza.

#3 It is the nature of Islam to dominate, not to be dominated, to impose its law on all nations and to extend its power to the entire planet. It is also interesting that the intention of Hamas Palestine to transform the entire world, including the US, into a Muslim slave empire has never generated similar outrage. |

| #1 Trump's proposal does substantially weaken the 'option' of returning to the status quo ante 2023/10/7 (including grift), which I suppose was the intent. |
