BREAKING: Trump says he is pressing Jordan, Egypt to take in Palestinians from Gaza, floats plan to 'just clean out' territory

Palestinians in Gaza—like Palestinians in the West Bank and Israel—overwhelmingly trace their ancestry to cities and villages in the region that today comprises Israel and Palestine.
The idea that they are some kind of spillover from other countries in the so-called Arab world—that they are just interchangeable with other “Arabs”—is a false but routinely employed rhetorical device to erase their history on the land.
They are the descendants of Canaanites, Israelites, Phoenicians, and other ancient Levantine peoples. Their ancestry overlaps with that of their Jewish neighbors, but they are converts to Christianity, Islam, and other religions.

Any effort to force them out or to pressure them to leave under threat of force is simply ethnic cleansing.
