Episode description

"The US will take over the Gaza Strip and we will do a job with it too. We'll own it.”

US President Donald Trump has just announced his intention to expel all Palestinians from Gaza and claim ownership of the land for the United States.

To forcefully and permanently exile more than 1.7 million people to neighbouring countries would have huge implications for global community – and potentially Australia, as a key ally to the USA. Has the world just witnessed the end of the two-state solution?

In this special breaking news episode of the Briefing, Bension Siebert speaks with Chair in Global Islamic Politics at Deakin University Greg Barton to get his immediate reaction, and explain what this means for the Middle East, the world and Australia.
