Last Post: Donald Trump has Gaza map to nowhere

If nothing else, Trump’s suggestion on Gaza’s potential as a Riviera highlights what could have been had funds not been diverted to tunnels and armaments.

Thank you, Chief Justice Andrew Bell. With people like you in our judiciary, there is hope (“Judge blasts Musk, anti-Semitic surge”, 7/2).

When is Prime Minister Anthony Albanese going to tell us if re-elected what Labor intends to do? He seems to take great delight in telling us what he thinks Peter Dutton is going to do. Or is he practising to be opposition leader after the next election?

President Donald Trump’s Gaza plan has next to no chance of going anywhere. A bit like all the plans and ideas we have seen for Palestine over the last 70 years.

The terrorists are clearly terrified of Trump’s Gaza proposal. What better endorsement could there be. Yes, it will need some tweaking, but he is surely on the right track. Good old-fashioned leadership has returned to the world stage.

The US President is moving at an astonishing pace. His critics can’t keep up. No sooner do they digest one policy and start framing arguments against him than the Trump caravan moves on to the next issue. Who can predict what will be next?

Not one commentator I have read has identified what could possibly be the main reason for Trump’s proposal for the Gaza Strip. The US would do anything for a full-sized naval, air force and army base in the eastern Mediterranean, even if Trump has to rebuild Gaza.

The US President is fixated on fentanyl smuggled from Canada despite the figures being relatively low and certainly significantly so by Mexican smuggling figures. Yet, somehow the number of Americans who are private gun owners seems not to be a problem for the President despite increasing numbers of shootings deaths each year.

Donald Trump has been involved in New York real estate for many decades, and those wondering what he means about Gaza should consult a dictionary for the meaning of an ambit claim.
