Trump’s statement: What is behind his plan to take over Gaza?

US President Donald Trump’s surprising statements (Tuesday) on his plan to take over the Gaza Strip and transfer its residents to Arab countries, disclosing as part of a wider strategy, according to experts interviewed by Maariv. The program, which left the Israeli delegation shocked by euphoria and surprise, reflects a planned move aimed at changing the rules of the game in the Middle East.

In his remarks in the White House, alongside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump presented an ambitious vision: “The Gaza Strip can be the Riviera of the Middle East” (similar to the French Riviera in southern France, known as a pampering resort with plenty of beaches – Jet.) He added to Gaza: “I see a long -term American ownership, it will bring stability.” During the party, Trump made it clear that he said “settlers in the Gaza Strip are a dangerous thing,” emphasizing that “the development of the Gaza Strip will not only be for one sector,” but for the benefit of the Israeli and intense population.

The factors that allowed a declaration

“This is a program that promotes in the US for over six months,” tells “Maariv” Dr. Kobi BardaA historian of American politics and ga-strategy from Holon Academic Institute (HIT). States that have seen in the not too distant past as obviously unreasonable (except for a number of minority groups in Israel), now seen as a bridal reality. According to Barda, such a surprising program is made possible, among other things, thanks to New Trump, which is called Barda as “Trump 2.” – as Barda’s new book – “Trump comes after two assassination attempts (and another attempt that the FBI stopped before performing), after almost convicted of charges According to Trump, they were “700 years in prison,” and with a sweeping victory in the election, so Trump walks around with a messianic feeling, “and as he said in his seventy speech -” God saved me to save the US. ”

Beyond this element, another component that led to such a surprising program is related to Israel, and the Minister’s Strategy for Strategic Affairs. According to Barda, there is no doubt that the achievement for Israel has been accepted a lot thanks to “the heat and the affection between Darmer and Trump, there are membership, which gives Dream better access to Trump as a significant player.” This is not only on the basis of being a graduate of one of the ivy universities, but as an Israeli ambassador to Trump, who visited news for mornings in the White House corridors, and near Trump.

Trump, Saudi Arabia and the new Middle East

Many commentators believe that one of President Trump’s main composers is the “chaos strategy”, in which by creating a great noise in the media thanks to his bombastic statements, Trump leaves the mess with his hand on top. In any case, the question arises, whether the announcements last night are empty statements whose purpose is no more than a mess of mess, which will make things clear to the assumption.

“This is not a policy of chaos, but a genius negotiation strategy,” explains “Maariv” Flor Nahum-HasanA special sending of the Foreign Ministry and a senior motion at the Misgav National Security Institute, adding: “Now Arab states should show Trump what they can do to be part of the solution, and not part of the problem.”

Trump’s declaration of Saudi willingness to give up the demand of the Palestinian state has encountered an acute response. “The kingdom’s position regarding the establishment of a Palestinian state is firm, resolute and undisputed,” the Saudi foreign Ministry announced. “It’s intriguing and surprising,” says Dr. Breda to Maariv, “when Trump says Saudi Arabia doesn’t really care about a Palestinian state and the Palestinian luxury in Gaza, Trump made a crazy Salman (Outing), but the denial of the Saudi in the morning, apparently they didn’t like it. And denied the contents of things. ”

Aspirations and long -term vision

According to Barda, in order to understand Trump’s moves in foreign relations, one must understand that what is most interesting to Trump – “Donald Trump.” Thus, behind the program declared last night, Trump’s ambition is also being credited with the Nobel Peace Prize. Albas Barda, Trump realizes that it is a complex event, and I deserve Trump, “and I know I will not get,” so he lowers expectations, but “there is no doubt that something that Trump is very want, he doesn’t stop talking about that Obama received, and he didn’t get” . Another aspect of the program specifically to build American buildings in Gaza.

Nahum-Hoshen emphasizes that “the Gulf states admire and respect Trump because they respect power. In the Gulf, he prayed that he would return, because he was the only one who understood the Iranian threat, which is a danger to all moderate Sunni Arab states.”

Regarding Qatar, Nahum-Hoshen repeats the point that “Qatar received a warning-will they continue to poison the world and fund terrorists, or they will be part of the solution? , And they – the Catars – objects in another and more attacker and status of honor in the West. ”

Breda adds: “The Catars have acquired an influence wherever possible. Therefore, it is not certain that Qatar will not have a role in the big plan that Trump presented, even though they were also shocked, and would have to re -calculate.”

In his speech in the White House, Netanyahu emphasized Israel’s military achievements, noting that “Israel has never been stronger and the Iranian terrorist has never been weaker.” He ended with a statement: “Not only will he win the war, work together, we will win peace.”
