The proposal seeks to halt a devastating two-year conflict that has claimed over 66,000 Palestinian lives and left Gaza in ruins. While supporters hail the plan as a game-changer — a bold attempt to reset the Israeli-Hamas standoff — critics see it a dangerous gamble fraught with hazards and uncertainties. The plan also proposes deploying an International Stabilisation Force, composed of Arab and international partners, to the Gaza Strip. Unlike Trump’s previous “Riviera of the Middle East” vision, this plan explicitly states that Gazans would not be displaced. Notwithstanding its striking flaws, Trump’s plan is not completely devoid of merit.
