Netanyahu News | Netanyahu Backs Trump's Vision For Redeveloping Gaza
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has backed a proposal by Trump to relocate Palestinians from Gaza and turn the war-ravaged coastal enclave into a luxury waterfront development -- a plan that has drawn international condemnation and could further complicate fragile cease-fire talks between Israel and Hamas. Netanyahu said Israel was working "very closely" with the United States to identify countries that would be willing to accept displaced Palestinians from Gaza, and suggested that discussions with several nations were already "getting close" to fruition. Trump claims the U.S. has had 'great cooperation' from countries surrounding Israel, saying that 'something good will happen.' Netanyahu's comments marked the most explicit endorsement yet of a controversial idea Trump first floated earlier this year -- that Gaza could be emptied of its Palestinian population and redeveloped into what he once called the 'Riviera of the Middle East.'
