Theories?!? The words came out of his mouth! There is nothing theoretical here.
Analysis by Aaron Blake: President Donald Trump said that the United States “will take over the Gaza Strip,” will “own it” long-term and will redevelop it. The immediate question is, whether he’s actually serious.

Today in Milan, a student activist group hung a trash-filled effigy of Musk upside down on a gate outside of piazzale Loreto, where Mussolini's body was displayed in 1945.
They left the message: "C'è sempre posto a piazzale Loreto, Elon" (There's always room in piazzale Loreto, Elon)
