U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday (Feb. 26) posted an AI-generated music video on his Truth Social platform, portraying what he envisions as the future of the Gaza Strip. The video, filled with extravagant imagery, is part of his broader plan to take control of Gaza and reshape it in line with his vision.
A futuristic yet bizarre Gaza strip
The AI-generated video depicts the Gaza coastline transformed into a luxurious destination, complete with promenades, high-rise buildings, and pristine beaches. However, the surreal nature of the video quickly caught attention, as it included belly dancers, a child holding a golden balloon shaped like Trump’s face, and a massive golden statue of Trump towering over the city.
In one particularly unusual scene, AI-generated billionaire Elon Musk is seen enjoying a local dish while dollar bills rain down around dancing revelers. Another moment in the video shows Trump himself dancing with a scantily clad woman, further adding to the spectacle.
The video ends with an image of Trump lounging poolside with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at a lavish resort labeled “Trump Gaza” in large golden letters. The accompanying song’s lyrics reinforce the theme:
“No more tunnels, no more fear, Trump Gaza is finally here Trump Gaza shining bright, golden future a brand new light Feast and dance the deal is done, Trump Gaza number one.”
Trump’s vision for Gaza: U.S. control and resettlement plan
Trump’s social media post follows his declaration during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, where he reiterated his belief that the U.S. should take control of the Gaza Strip. He stated that American troops would be deployed in the region if necessary to enforce his vision.
His proposal also includes a controversial resettlement plan for the two million Palestinians currently living in Gaza, suggesting they should be relocated to neighboring countries. The idea, according to Trump, would bring “peace and prosperity” to the region while allowing for new development under U.S. oversight.
Netanyahu responded positively to Trump’s idea, saying it was “worth paying attention to” and that American control over Gaza “could change history.”
Global outrage over ‘forced transfer’ proposal
Trump’s plan has sparked international outrage, with several countries condemning his approach. Critics have labeled his resettlement proposal as a “forced transfer” and an “unacceptable issue,” warning that it would violate international law and further destabilize the region.
Diplomatic leaders and human rights organizations have also expressed deep concerns over the potential humanitarian consequences of displacing millions of Palestinians from their homes. The United Nations and various Middle Eastern nations have strongly opposed any attempt at forced relocation, calling for immediate clarification from the U.S. administration.
As Trump continues to push his Gaza vision, the world watches closely, with reactions ranging from alarm to outright rejection. Whether his proposal gains traction or remains a controversial footnote in Middle Eastern geopolitics remains to be seen.
