Trump’s Gaza “Riviera” Plan

President Trump envisions transforming Gaza, devastated by war, into the “Riviera of the Middle East” with resorts, smart cities, and a high-tech hub. The U.S. would administer Gaza under trusteeship for at least 10 years, oversee reconstruction, and push a population strategy that incentivizes Palestinians to relocate to other countries.

1. U.S. Administrative Control

• Duration: 10–15 years of U.S. trusteeship.

• Scope: Manage clearing 50M+ tons of debris, neutralizing unexploded ordnance, and addressing environmental contamination.

• Authority: Trump said the U.S. would “own Gaza,” though aides later clarified there would be no direct U.S. troop or funding commitment.

2. Palestinian Relocation

• Mechanism: Offer financial incentives for Palestinians to “voluntarily” move to Egypt, Jordan, or other regions (Libya, Sudan, Syria, Somalia’s Puntland or Somaliland).

• Permanence Debate: Initially described as permanent, with Trump insisting Palestinians would not return. Aides later framed it as temporary.

• Destinations: Trump floated “six safe communities” or a “beautiful new land,” though Egypt and Jordan have rejected hosting.

3. Redevelopment Plan

• Economic Goals: Build resorts, harbors, an airport, and high-tech industries.

• Infrastructure: Rebuild Gaza’s collapsed water, sanitation, and agriculture systems, while surveying Hamas’s tunnel damage.

• Timeline: 10–15 years, possibly up to 25 given the scale (90% of Gaza’s population displaced, half of infrastructure destroyed).

• Inhabitants: Envisioned as open to “the world’s people,” though Trump has contradicted himself on whether Palestinians would return.

4. Security and Governance

• Hamas: Assumes Gaza is cleared of Hamas, though no strategy is offered for ensuring that.

• Military Presence: Trump first suggested U.S. troops “if necessary,” then walked it back. Security arrangements remain undefined.

• Humanitarian Argument: Trump claims Palestinians live in “hell” and would be better off relocated to “safe, beautiful communities.”

• Economic Promise: He calls it a chance to create “unlimited jobs and housing,” making Gaza’s coast a global destination.
