Middle East: U.S. President Donald Trump insists on a plan to displace Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to Egypt and Jordan.

A few days ago, the American website "Axios" reported that Trump had a phone call with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, during which they discussed the plan to evacuate Palestinians from Gaza. However, the Egyptian press—especially pro-Sisi media—did not highlight this news, raising many questions about the lack of attention to such a significant development that has occupied global discussions.

The Egyptian writer Jamal Sultan believes that Egypt’s silence regarding this phone call is evasive and raises concerns about what is happening behind closed doors. He particularly notes the timing of Trump’s call with Sisi, which was followed the next day by a meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Trump in Washington. Their discussions reportedly covered several issues, including Gaza, prisoner exchanges, a ceasefire, the status of the Strip, and forced displacement.

Evidence that this is serious includes statements from U.S. officials echoing Trump's remarks. For example, Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Danon, has expressed concern over Egypt’s growing military arsenal, urging Washington to reconsider its arms supply to Cairo. He questioned, "Why does Egypt need all this military equipment?"

There is no doubt that the forced displacement of Palestinians is an extension of Trump's so-called "Deal of the Century," which took three years to develop by a specialized team under his administration. The plan was designed to nullify the Palestinian refugees' right of return and to marginalize this right through American-Israeli maneuvers.

Trump's plan did not stop at denying Palestinians their right to return; it also sought to expel the remaining population and carve out Egyptian and Jordanian lands in illegal steps that violate international law and state sovereignty. The goal is to eliminate a unified Palestinian state while expanding the Zionist dream of a "Greater Israel," which includes ambitions of occupying Syria under the pretext of military operations like "Project Arrow of Bashan" and advancing a strategic initiative called the "David Corridor."

Sayyed Abdulmalik has pointed out that the Israeli occupation believes it has a clear opportunity to expand in Syria due to the lack of resistance to its advances. He also explained that Israel refers to its military actions in Syria as "Operation Arrow of Bashan," a name tied to an ancient Jewish myth that claims southern Syria and northern Jordan as part of an ancient Jewish kingdom.

Meanwhile, researcher Hashim Wajih al-Din argues that Trump's statements about displacing Palestinians to Egypt and Jordan confirm Washington’s determination to enforce Israel’s goals through war and blockade. The main objective of the war on Gaza, which lasted 15 months, was to expel Gazans and eliminate Palestinian resistance. However, Israel failed militarily due to the resilience of Palestinian fighters and the local population, forcing it to accept the conditions of the Palestinian resistance.

Dr. Mahyoub al-Hassam confirms that Trump has repeatedly urged Egypt and Jordan to accept the relocation of more than 1.5 million Palestinians from Gaza. Trump has insisted over multiple days that these countries will eventually comply. This, according to Hassam, suggests that Cairo and Amman may have already signaled some level of willingness, either explicitly or through indirect indicators during the war.

Evidence of this alleged agreement includes reports from news agencies that Egypt has imported a large number of prefabricated housing units and tents into Sinai, possibly preparing for an influx of displaced Palestinians.

Hassam also points to Jordan’s role in defending Israel by intercepting Yemeni and Iranian drones targeting Israeli territory. Additionally, both Egypt and Jordan have allowed the continued flow of weapons and supplies to Israel, with reports indicating that Egyptian ports facilitated arms shipments to Tel Aviv.

Moreover, resistance groups and their regional allies will likely oppose any forced relocation of Palestinians. The failure of Trump’s previous plans, including his original "Deal of the Century," suggests that this new displacement proposal will also face fierce resistance and could ultimately backfire on Washington and Tel Aviv.

Some analysts believe that regardless of Egypt’s or Jordan’s stance, the displacement plan will not succeed because Palestinians themselves will resist leaving their land. The Gaza war has demonstrated that even after immense suffering and massacres, Palestinians remain resolute in their determination to stay.

Ultimately, many observers believe that Trump's strategy is not only about displacement but also about reshaping the region’s political dynamics to benefit Israel while keeping Arab regimes under Washington’s control. However, just as previous American-Israeli plans have failed, this one may also collapse in the face of Palestinian resistance and regional opposition.
