President Trump over the weekend controversially said he wants<\/a> Egypt, Jordan, and other Arab nations to accept more Palestinian refugees from the Gaza Strip, with\u00a0the goal of moving out enough of the war-torn area\u2019s population to “just clean [it] out” and create a virtual clean slate of the Palestinian territory<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n And there are huge gas reserves off the coast of Gaza<\/a>, and it was theorized early on that the attack was allowed to proceed by Israel’s government (allies warned them even) so they could use it as an excuse to clear the region out or at least rubblize it, which would also be prime real estate for development beyond resources. Also the theory is that Palestinians are such troublemakers that the rest of the Arab nations are content to let them be wiped out, as they just play lip service for their citizens empathetic to the Palestinian’s cause. And signs are Iran has been working with the west through back channels in wiping out jihadi troublemakers in Hezbollah and Hamas, as much a threat to them as Israel. Suffices to say, this is an OCGFC operation about resources and money, and more complicated than presented. And it would seem the Palestinians are refusing to go, and Trump just said they’re shipping the 2,000 lb bombs already ordered and held up by Biden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/geopolitical\/stunning-<\/a>i<\/a>mages-show-tens-thousands-gazans-returning-destroyed-homes-foot<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n By Tyler Durden<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the first time after nearly a year-and-a-half, tens of thousands of displaced Palestinians are returning to their homes in the northern Gaza Strip en masse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Photos and overhead drone footage reveal surprisingly large throngs of Gazan families returning to what are likely destroyed homes and communities on foot<\/strong>, sometimes carrying all possessions on their backs.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Al Jazeera is capturing many of these scenes, and spoke with some of the returning displaced. “We want to go see our family. I want to see my mother and father. We haven\u2019t seen them for 15 months. It\u2019s a long time,” Ahmad Adas, a young displaced Palestinian, told<\/a> the outlet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And 19-year old Mohammed Adas described, “I haven\u2019t seen my family for a year and a half. I\u2019ve been waiting for three days to go to my parents. We are tired. I want to go to Gaza City, we\u2019re not coming back here.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n The ceasefire has held after two rounds of hostage exchanges, and most of the displaced have been living in crowded and squalid tent camps <\/strong>or schools which have been turned into shelters.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n “Starting at 7 a.m., Palestinians were allowed to cross on foot without inspection through part of the so-called Netzarim Corridor, a military zone bisecting the territory just south of Gaza City that Israel carved out early in the war,” Times of Israel details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “Massive crowds of people carrying their belongings on foot stretched along a coastal highway in a stunning reversal of the mass exodus<\/strong> from the north at the start of the war,” the report continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What highways still exist are also packed with cars and traffic:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hundreds of vehicles are crossing from the southern Gaza Strip to the north after months of forced displacement. pic.twitter.com\/Ur0RiVEF4m<\/a> \u2014 Clash Report (@clashreport) January 27, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Regional war correspondent Elijah Magnier observes<\/a> that these are scenes of defiance which strike out against both Netanyahu and Washington…<\/p>\n\n\n\n “This is what a total defeat, not victory, of Benjamin Netanyahu looks like. Media reports the return on foot of tens of thousands of Palestinians from the south to the north of Gaza after 15 months of war through the ‘death corridor’<\/strong> called Netzarim via Al Rashid coastal road that opened minutes ago,” he writes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In some cases Palestinians have said they are motivated to return after Trump’s remarks saying Egypt and Jordan should just absorb all Gazans as the Strip is already destroyed.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u26a1\ufe0f\u2b55\ufe0f “Tell the whole world… We are ready to die in our land, this is the proof before Trump’s eyes”… “Tell Trump he’s dreaming if he thinks he will displace us to Jordan and Egypt” “Cars are allowed in through Salahoddine street after an inspection conducted by an American security agency. The Palestinians of the north are mainly 1948 refugees who refuse to leave Palestine and accept to live in a tent but stay. Israel can never defeat these people,” Magnier concludes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n President Trump over the weekend controversially said he wants<\/a> Egypt, Jordan, and other Arab nations to accept more Palestinian refugees from the Gaza Strip, with the goal of moving out enough of the war-torn area\u2019s population to “just clean [it] out” and create a virtual clean slate of the Palestinian territory<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 1 million human beings survived the genocide are returning to their homes in North Gaza.
