Palestinians are missing from Trump and Witkoff's Gaza dream | David Hearst | MEE Opinion

In this opinion video, David Hearst, editor-in-chief of Middle East Eye, examines the remarks of Steve Witkoff, Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy, during a lengthy interview with Tucker Carlson. Hearst argues that Witkoff’s vision for Gaza is not based on justice or Palestinian rights, but on real estate and regional control - what he calls an imperial plan built on the ruins of war. Witkoff spoke of Gaza as a development opportunity, ignoring Israel’s destruction of the territory and dismissing Palestinian claims entirely. He floated ideas like moving Gaza’s population abroad and rebuilding the strip as a commercial hub - without addressing occupation, siege, or displacement. According to Hearst, Witkoff’s role is not that of a mediator, but of a messenger for a regional order dominated by Israel and financed by the Gulf. Hearst warns that this vision, backed by Trump and Netanyahu, is detached from regional realities and risks triggering broader unrest. With Arab public opinion inflamed and regional leaders seen as either powerless or complicit, the legitimacy of regimes aligned with the US is weakening. What Trump and Netanyahu are building, Hearst argues, is not peace - but the foundation for a larger regional conflict. Support stories that matter.
