    The ICC has no enforcement power. Trump wants to dismantle the ICC.

    Palestinians would be given land equivalent to Gaza adjacent to the West Bank. They would be happy to move there.

      It’s fine not knowing how the ICC works, but who gives a shit if Trump wants to dismantle it? Unless you mean that the ICC has no jurisdiction on US citizens (no matter where they are in the world) unless they have committed crimes of atrocity, so Trump and Netanyahu may try to make him a US citizen again (3rd time is a charm), but his war crimes would likely overrule any help that the US tried to give him, also, Trump only really has 3 years left in office. It would take him longer than that to dismantle them. He has already sparked a massive movement towards EU digital sovereignty after he imposed sanctions and blocked the ICC judges cards and (allegedly) ordered microsoft to disable their emails.

      There is no point in you repeating “Palestinians would be given land equivalent to Gaza” etc. Unless you are going to say how you plan on making this happen.

        Trump has Israel’s back. That is what has emboldened Netanyahu in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon.

        Palestinians would leave voluntarily for equivalent land adjacent to the West Bank. If they prefer to stay in Gaza, fine, but then they would be separated from the West Bank.

          Its common knowledge that Trump is watching Israel, and they are in turn helping in the middle East, but so what?

          Trump may have, the rest of the world might have been backing them to a degree but the genocide is too much. Trump is an idiot and the rest of the world already know it.

          HOW WOULD YOU GIVE GAZA TO ISRAEL? Repeating that they would leave voluntarily is bullshit.

            Remember what I said. If they don’t want to leave fine. However, Palestinians would now live in two separate territories.

              They already do. So you have no idea how it would be implemented.

              If they would go voluntarily, why haven’t they already?

                Did you read my proposal? In exchange for Gaza going to Israel, an equivalent piece of land adjacent to the West Bank would be given to Egypt. Palestinians would be happy to move there because they will now be next to the West Bank which some of their relatives probably live.

                  It’s a proposal, yes. But I asked how you would go about executing it.

                  I wouldn’t be banking on too many hoping to see their relatives, as Israel has killed most of them. So you would have a large amount that will want to stay where their relatives were killed, where their neighbours were tortured etc. The alternative is asking them what was all of the killing for. For nothing? To move anyway? I seriously doubt it. That is obviously apart from all of the other reasons.

                  I have no idea where you are getting “Palestinians would be happy to move there” from.

                  But, I’m still wondering how you would expect to execute this.

                  is it the same plan as Israel? Just keep killing them all and move the remaining (they would undoubtedly prefer to kill them too), or are you planning on asking them?

                    This is my proposal again. . Egypt will be given the West Bank enlarged by land equivalent to the Gaza Strip. In return, Israel will be given the Gaza Strip and land at least 3 times larger than the West Bank in the Sinai Peninsula. Some of the land will be adjacent to water so Israel can build desalination plants. The Sinai is inhospitable, and Egypt doesn’t have the technology to develop it, but Israel does. With its new land, Egypt can give it to the Palestinians, make it a state within Egypt, or whatever it wants.

                    Palestinians in Gaza would move to the new territory adjacent to the West Bank. The purpose is to have Palestinians live in a contiguous area. The new area could connect to the Mediterranean Sea so the Palestinian area wouldn’t be isolated from Egypt. If the Palestinians in Gaza prefer to live in Gaza, that’s fine but now there would be two areas where Palestinians live.
