The Trump administration is working on a plan to permanently relocate up to 1 million Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to Libya, five people with knowledge of the effort told NBC News.

The plan is under serious enough consideration that the administration has discussed it with Libya’s leadership, two people with direct knowledge of the plans and a former U.S. official said.

In exchange for the resettling of Palestinians, the administration would potentially release to Libya billions of dollars of funds that the U.S. froze more than a decade ago, those three people said.

No final agreement has been reached, and Israel has been kept informed of the administration’s discussions, the same three sources said.

Basem Naim, a senior Hamas official, said that Hamas, the U.S.-designated terrorist group that has run Gaza, was not aware of any discussions about moving Palestinians to Libya.

“Palestinians are very rooted in their homeland, very strongly committed to the homeland and they are ready to fight up to the end and to sacrifice anything to defend their land, their homeland, their families, and the future of their children,” Naim said in response to questions from NBC News. “[Palestinians] are exclusively the only party who have the right to decide for the Palestinians, including Gaza and Gazans, what to do and what not to do.”

Representatives of the Israeli government declined to comment.

Libya has been plagued by instability and warring political factions throughout the nearly 14 years since a civil war broke out in the country and its longtime dictator, Moammar Gadhafi, was toppled. Libya is struggling to care for its current population as two rival governments, one in the west led by Abdul Hamid Dbeibah and one in the east led by Khalifa Haftar, are actively and violently fighting for control. The State Department currently advises Americans not to travel to Libya “due to crime, terrorism, unexploded landmines, civil unrest, kidnapping, and armed conflict.”

Dbeibah’s government could not be reached for comment. Haftar’s Libyan National Army did not respond to a request for comment.

How many Palestinians in Gaza would voluntarily leave to live in Libya is an open question. One idea administration officials have discussed is to provide Palestinians with financial incentives such as free housing and even a stipend, the former U.S. official said.

The details of when or how any plan to relocate Palestinians to Libya could be implemented are murky, and an effort to resettle up to 1 million people there would likely face significant obstacles.

Such an effort would likely be extremely expensive, and it’s not clear how the Trump administration would seek to pay for it. In the past, the administration has said Arab nations would help with rebuilding Gaza after the war there ends, but they have been critical of Trump’s idea of permanently relocating Palestinians.

In recent weeks, the Trump administration has also looked at Libya as a place where it could send some immigrants it wants to deport from the U.S. However, plans to send one group of immigrants to Libya were stalled by a federal judge this month.

Moving up to 1 million Palestinians to Libya could put far more of a strain on the fragile country.

The CIA’s most recent publicly available estimate of Libya’s current population is about 7.36 million. In terms of population, Libya absorbing 1 million more people would be equivalent to the U.S. taking in about 46 million.

Precisely where Palestinians would be resettled in Libya has not been determined, according to the former U.S. official. Administration officials are looking at options for housing them and every potential method for transporting them from Gaza to Libya — by air, land and sea —is being considered, according to one of the people with direct knowledge of the effort. Any of those methods would likely prove cumbersome and time-consuming, as well as costly.

The plan under discussion is part of President Donald Trump’s vision for a postwar Gaza, which he said in February the U.S. would seek to “own” and rebuild as what he called “the Riviera of the Middle East,” two current U.S. officials, the former U.S. official and the two people with direct knowledge of the effort said.

To achieve his goal for the reconstruction of Gaza, Trump has said Palestinians there would have to be permanently resettled elsewhere. Trump’s idea, which blindsided some of his top aides, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, when he announced it, drew criticism from America’s Arab allies and U.S. lawmakers from both parties.

The U.S. and Israel in March also rejected a proposal from Egypt for rebuilding Gaza without relocating Palestinians.

The administration’s work on a Libya plan comes as Trump’s relationship with Netanyahu has become strained, in part because of Israel’s decision to launch a new military offensive in Gaza.

The Trump administration has considered multiple locations for resettling Palestinians living in Gaza, according to a senior administration official, a former U.S. official familiar with the discussions and one of the people with direct knowledge of the effort.

Syria, with its new leadership following the ouster of Bashar al Assad in December, also is under discussion as a possible location for resettling Palestinians currently in Gaza, according to one of the people with direct knowledge of the effort and a former U.S. official familiar with the discussions.

in other news, israel killed over 300 women and children in the past 36 hours - mostly by bombing their tents at night - then once again ordered gazans to death march to rafah, which they just completely depopulated and flattened:

[Israeli officials] said that the occupation would be permanent and the IDF wouldn't pull back even in return for the release of the hostages. The tactic will be massive destruction. As the IDF occupies Gaza, it will flatten all buildings, as it did previously in Rafah and in the northern Gaza Strip. The IDF is planning to displace close to 2 million Palestinians to the Rafah area, where compounds for the delivery of humanitarian aid are being built.

"We are demolishing more and more homes; they have nowhere to return to," Netanyahu said. "The only natural outcome will be a desire among Gazans to emigrate. Our main problem is finding countries willing to take them."

Netanyahu said humanitarian aid in Gaza would be conditioned on displaced Palestinians never returning to their homes. This proposal - punishing civilians by permanently expelling them from their neighborhoods—directly contradicts past Israeli military statements, which said aid distribution would allow family representatives to collect food and supplies on behalf of the displaced and return to their homes.

"Bring in the Jews of the United States—then we’ll hit two birds with one stone."

Those are people that moved in after the Jews were forced out of Israel by the Romans.

If American Indians were letting in terrorists and bombing the general public of the United States, what would happen?
That still wouldn't be equivalent because American Indians actually were here before everybody else.

Life won't be any better in Libya... smh.
It's counterintuitive for America too.

Libya is a hotbed for radical groups and terrorists. Sending a bunch of Palestinians who obviously have a grudge with the west there is like pouring kerosene on a forest fire.

It will only spawn the next generation of ISIS. Which will be angry radicalized enough to start attacking the west .


It boggles me that white people can arbitrarily create a country out of thin air for Jews, but they pretend that their hands are tied when it comes to Palestinians. They are more than capable of doing a Marshall plan for this population, and they have more than enough resources for economically setting them up so that they don't become a problem in the future for the west.
