Summary

Trump’s proposal for the U.S. to take over Gaza and resettle its Palestinian population was widely condemned by allies and adversaries alike.

Arab nations, including Egypt and Saudi Arabia, firmly rejected the plan, reaffirming support for Palestinian sovereignty. U.S. allies like Australia and New Zealand reiterated their backing of a two-state solution.

Critics, including Palestinian leaders and Hamas, denounced the move as illegal and destabilizing.

U.S. lawmakers also opposed it, with some calling it “dangerous” and “ethnic cleansing.”

    He ran out of political capital to stall when Hamas was offering him the hostages back, most likely.

    Same as trump caving with tariffs against Canada/Mexico once Canada/Mexico was trying very hard to remove the tariffs.

    There’s only so much stalling you can do when the opposition is trying desperately to make “peace” work.

    Bibi absolutely does not give a shit about the hostages. His actions have shown as much. He was already deeply unpopular in Israel before the war started, so I expect that he just ran out of political capital to keep his peers at bay.
