Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst Marwan Bishara highlights how framing ethnic cleansing as humanitarian assistance to Palestinians is a profound insult. He emphasizes that the United States has empowered and enabled Israel’s actions through military, financial, and diplomatic support, and now seeks to justify the removal of Palestinians under the guise of aid. Bishara argues that this narrative is widely recognized as untrue, as the long-standing plan has always been to ethnically cleanse the Palestinian people. He suggests that the key question moving forward is whether the Trump administration is fully committed to this strategy or merely testing the waters to gauge reactions before proceeding, noting that six major Arab nations have already firmly rejected the proposal.
