Military officials expressed doubts in secret meetings about Trump’s plan to displace Gazans and its feasibility.

Officials said they want to solve Gaza’s problem without further accusations of war crimes against Israel.

Officials stated that Trump’s plan’s success depends on Gazans’ willingness and a country accepting them.

ISRAELI PM NETANYAHU:

Thank you, President Trump, for the bold executive order regarding the ICC.

Trump’s order will defend America and Israel against the corrupt, anti-American, and anti-Semitic ICC.

The ICC has no jurisdiction or basis to wage a legal war against us.

Trump’s executive order protects the sovereignty of America, Israel, and their brave soldiers.
