‘Such An Exotic Idea’: Brit Hume Breaks Down Trump’s Strategy To Neutralize Hamas

Veteran political analyst Britt Hume appeared on Fox News on Wednesday to discuss President Donald Trump’s strategy to address the enduring unrest in Gaza urged by extremist group Hamas.

Between exterior In his “special report with Bret Baier,” Baier said Trump’s approach could trigger important international and regional responses, asking Hume for his interpretation. Hume said Trump’s strategy could move his long-standing focus away from the two-state solutions. This is a concept that has been established for over 50 years.

“Exotic ideas like this, and it’s a brett, because obstacles are too many to mention, but it may never cross, but it had one notable effect, and it At least it has driven the debate, now we’re away from the idea of ​​a solution for two states that has been dead-end for over half a century,” Hume said. “Mainly because, while it makes all sorts of meaning on paper, Palestinians have never actually shown much appetite for this idea. Most of them want a solution from one state, and I don’t think Israel is part of that.”

As Hume said, Trump’s proposal aims to fundamentally change the situation by encouraging Palestinians to relocate or relocate on their own. This will turn Gaza into a viable and attractive destination.

“Trump offers something different. He turns the Palestinians away or leave and turn the place into something that you know and liveable and livable. I hope. I don’t know how far it goes, but I think they put some of the other countries in that position. They don’t like it, right? Saudi Arabia doesn’t like it, Egypt Not that, you know, they’re all complaining about it,” Hume said.

Hume noted that future meetings between Trump and King Abdullah in Jordan are important.

“Next week, King Abdullah of Jordan will meet with President Trump. It is clearly one of the countries that will bring Palestinians from Gaza. He met with Mahmoud Abbas today, the King of Jordan will do so And the question is whether this is a signal to Jordan, whether we can come up with something to Egypt. Otherwise, this is the backend,” Hume said. “Obviously, not just Democrat Capitol Hill, there were a lot of reactions, too. Yeah, yes. This idea was supposed to be filled with all sorts of resistance, and simply it was the box Because they’re far from it.”

At a press conference in the East Room on Tuesday, Trump said the US would “take over” the Gaza Strip to end the Israeli-Hama conflict. Speaking alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump characterized Gaza as a longtime “symbol of death and destruction,” but promised that the region would ultimately achieve peace.
