It is not a war crime unless force is used to move the Palestinians, and neither President Trump nor Israel has proposed forced transfers of the Palestinians.No thats not the arguments against the plan.
1. Its a war crime.
2. It will cause massive US casualties and stick our people in hell for decades.
3. Yes the entire ME will be angry. We might get an oil embargo again.
4. Neither Egypt nor Jordan will take them. Turkey, the Gulf States, and the EU will not take them.
There is no rational basis for believing incentivizing and facilitating the emigration of the Palestinian population will cause any US casualties.
The Arabs/Muslims are always angry about the existence of Jews and Israel, so nothing new here. The Arab states can't afford another oil embargo.
Pretty much everyone will take them. President Trump has not proposed to send shiploads of Palestinians under duress, but to facilitate the emigration of Palestinians as individuals. Before the war fully a third of the Gaza population would have left under this plan, and now many more Palestinians will accept a chance to flee war torn, devastated Gaza.
