Trump's Controversial Plan for Gaza Sparks Global Outrage

In a stunning announcement, former U.S. President Donald Trump proposed a bold plan to take over the Gaza Strip and transform it into the "Riviera of the Middle East." During a joint press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump outlined his vision to **displace over two million Palestinians** and develop the war-torn region into a luxurious tourist destination.

Critics argue that the plan would lead to a bloody occupation and further destabilize the already volatile region. Palestinian leaders have expressed revulsion, calling the plan a violation of international law and an attempt to erase Palestinian identity.

The international community remains divided on the feasibility and morality of Trump's vision, with many fearing it could ignite new conflicts in the Middle East. As the debate continues, the world watches closely to see how this controversial proposal will unfold.
