I thought he said they should move to Egypt and Jordan while Gaza was rebuilt.  The place is hardly livable now and will remain that way for a long time. 

He may have said they could, but did Egypt or Jordan say they could? These are sovereign countries. 

Egypt has a population around 120 million. Jordan has a population around 10 million. How will they absorb 2 million people? Where will they house them? And what will they do with this extra housing when they are gone. How will their infrastructure support them? Will new hospitals, schools, transportation systems, etc. be built for them? Do they get jobs with these new modern homes in beautiful communities? Do they pay taxes? Or do they get welfare? If so, who pays for that? Are they citizens? Can they vote in elections? And when Gaza is rebuilt do they move back in? For free? Or do they need to re-buy the buildings that got bombed out from under them? And where do they get the money for that?

Too many moving parts.   Need more details before someone can decide if the idea has merit or not.   From a very high level, it appears to have merit but the devil is in the details.

They can use their rocket and tunnel money for anything they need.

Same way we absorb biden’s 10+ million illegal aliens?   Forced taxpayer funding for crap most of the country does not support? Just a hunch.

Ypu both clearly have no answers. Not unlike Trump.

New rockets and tunnels.  That's what they are good at and know best.

People who tolerate me on a daily basis . . . they are the real heroes.

leve the israelis to get slaughtered. nice. 

There's a difference in funding a project of expansion with never-ending, no-strings-attached, weapons shipments and supplies and defending an ally country against invasion. 

If we turned off the money/weapon spout, Israel would be fine. We would still be there to protect them *if necessary.* They have nukes too. They're not a defenseless little lamb.
