Trump ignorantly demanding Egypt and Jordan break one of the ironclad laws of Arab bourgeois politics shows how much an unintentional wrecker of American empire he is
Egypt would literally rather invade Israel proper then accept even a 100,000 Gazans let alone half a million or whatever nonsense Trump has dreamt up
Sisi in the past has literally called the idea a "declaration of war on Egypt", when Trump speaks with Sisi I hope they piss each other off
I'm not too familiar with internal Egyptian politics, what are the implications of Trump pulling diplomatic and financial support for the current government? I recognize it as America shooting itself in the foot, but I don't see what any other leverage the state department could use.
Immediate Arab Spring, the country is a pressure cooker and it's gonna blow up eventually, but I doubt the Americans want to hand Hamas a massive rear base and Israel its greatest and most well armed enemy
On the flip side, the military will straight up put one in Sisi's head if he so much as signals acceptance of Trump's plan, Palestinian movement is the only true redline of the Arab comprador regimes and there is no compromise on it, they'd rather fight a hot war against Israel and the US
