The Spin

The usual critics are deriding Trump for his out-of-the-box thinking to bring a long-sought solution to the situation in Gaza. However, it's the most humane option available and might for once bring peace to this region of the Middle East.

18 months of war have not dissuaded the Palestinians of Gaza from wanting to remain on their homeland. Trump has no right to tell the people of Gaza where they should live, and his plans to move them would amount to ethnic cleansing and forcible displacement.

Metaculus Prediction

There's a 15% chance that the Gaza War will lead to a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict before Jan. 1, 2030, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
