00:00In violation of Palestinian sovereignty, President Donald Trump affirmed that the
00:03United States will cease the Gaza Strip in order to rebuild it and its inhabitants
00:08will be displaced to neighboring countries. At a press conference with Israeli war criminal
00:13and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Donald Trump announced that the United States would
00:17assume a long-term ownership position over the Palestinian enclave. He also said that
00:23after a general demolition, he would rebuild the Gaza Strip to create economic development
00:28and jobs. His words, which flagrantly ignore Palestinian sovereignty and the right of this
00:33nation to have an independent state on its own territories, were applauded by Netanyahu,
00:38who stated that such a decision can change history.
00:45The U.S. will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job with it, too. We'll own it
00:51and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on
00:56the site, level the site and get rid of the destroyed buildings, level it out, create an
01:03economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and housing for the people of the
01:10area. He has a different idea, and I think it's worth paying attention to this. We're talking
01:18about it. He's exploring it with his people, with his staff. I think it's something that could
01:24change history, and it's worthwhile really pursuing this avenue. I think peace between
01:33Israel and Saudi Arabia is not only feasible, I think it's going to happen. I think if we had
01:40another half a year in your first term, it would have already happened.
