Let’s suppose that Trump knows what he is doing, that the control of Greenland, Panama Canal and Canada is needed to win World War III, which has started, according to a believable column by George F. Will. That climate change, which Trump has previously called a hoax, has suddenly come alive in his Troy Donahue encased brain, and is now melting the ice covering of Greenland and Canada, exposing rare metals, oil and natural gas as well as opening new sea routes north of the Arctic Circle. Better to have the oligarchs of Musk and Trump, the MUMP Administration, digging for these resources than Putin’s. Better to have U.S. naval vessels filling those sea lanes rather than Russia’s or China’s. And better to have control of the Panama Canal to quickly move the U.S. Navy from ocean to ocean.

Let’s say that all worked out, and the United States wins WWIII.

But where does Gaza Strip fit in?

Will U.S. ownership of this beach front property help win WWIII? Will this help the United States, the Mideast or the world do anything at all?

First of all, the new landlord would have to clear out the present tenants. Some of them, the hostages, would gladly leave if they can be found. Alive. But the others on the property have no new addresses. Assuming the Palestinians eventually find a new home (Guantanamo?), then the clearing of the rubble, created by Israel using U.S. supplied bombs, rockets and drones, would have to be undertaken. Invest in heavy-equipment manufacturers as they ramp up production of bulldozers, front-end loaders, cranes and dump trucks to scrape away the war remains. Then the building begins, estimated by some to take 15 years. At that point, Trump would be starting his sixth term as head of the U.S. government, if it still exists. Or, he could step down, move to the Rivera of the Mideast and return to his former occupation as a casino owner where he has had so much previous success.
