President Donald Trump says he’d like to see Arab nations increase the number of Palestinian refugees they are accepting from the Gaza Strip — potentially moving out enough of the population to “clean out” the area to create a virtual clean slate.

“Something has to happen,” Trump said. “But it’s literally a demolition site right now. Almost everything’s demolished, and people are dying there.” He added: “So, I’d rather get involved with some of the Arab nations, and build housing in a different location, where they can maybe live in peace for a change.”

      Most of the millions of Palestinian refugees living in Jordan were born in Jordan. They are descendants of refugees from 1948 and 1967. They live in regular housing. The so called Palestinian refugee camps ins Jordan look and operate like normal towns.

      To ask them to take on anyone else is beyond a joke

      Maybe the people of Gaza should be asked what they want. I’m sure some would prefer living in Jordan.
