00:00Trump's also said that Palestinians should relocate to neighbouring countries like Egypt and Jordan for refuge

00:07Instead of returning home, but both Hamas and the Palestinian authorities have condemned this idea and Jordan and Egypt

00:15Have also rejected it. Is this a concept that's supported by Netanyahu's government?

00:21Well, I think Trump is being practical

00:24Gaza needs to be rebuilt and it needs to be rebuilt by people who are not jihadi terrorists and who are going to

00:30Create another arm of the Islamic Republic of Iran. In order to do that

00:35First of all physically, logistically, it would be much easier if there weren't too many people there in order to rebuild quickly

00:43And secondly to make sure that you can flush out the jihadi terrorists

00:47And so I think it's it's actually Trump being very practical and honestly any conflict in the last

00:53Few decades the neighboring countries have always taken in refugees and we have in a situation where Egypt that borders

01:01Gaza hasn't taken any refugees during the war. They could have taken the women and the children in they could have put them temporarily in

01:07Sinai until the war is over, but they've done none of it. In fact, they simply

01:12reinforced the border by making it even harder to get through
