Hezbollah strongly denounced former US President Donald Trump’s call for the forced displacement of Palestinians from Gaza, describing it as “a blatant expression of racist, fascist ideology that threatens humanity at its core.”
In a statement issued on Friday, the group asserted that “the right of people to their land is a fundamental principle enshrined in all international laws and conventions—an inalienable right that cannot be revoked, violated, or relinquished under any form of coercion.”
US History of Settler Colonialism
The statement further criticized the “arrogance and delusions of grandeur” guiding US policies, arguing that Trump and his administration believe they can replicate “the dark history of the US’ founding—built on the organized extermination of Indigenous populations and the replacement of native peoples with settlers.”
Hezbollah warned that the same model is now being pursued in Palestine through forced displacement, stating that “after the US-Israeli war machine, backed by Western powers, failed to break the will of the Palestinian people, Trump and his allies now seek to uproot them entirely and hand their land to the Zionists.”
However, the group emphasized that “the resilience of the Palestinian resistance and the people of Gaza has proven that they will not be erased.”
‘What the Israeli enemy Failed to Achieve Through War, It Will Not Achieve Through Deception’
Hezbollah asserted that “what the enemy could not seize through war, it will not obtain through deceptive slogans about offering Gazans a ‘better life’ outside their homeland.” The party described Trump’s proposal as “a dangerous scheme that defies logic and nature, revealing the extent of ongoing conspiracies against the Palestinian people.”
Call for Unified Resistance
Hezbollah reaffirmed its belief that “those who thwarted the war of extermination will also defeat the war of ethnic cleansing.” The party warned that “Trump and his backers will come to realize that this sacred land will never yield to American madness.” It called on “all honorable people across the Arab and Muslim world, and beyond, to stand together in rejecting this disgraceful plot.”
Warning to Arab and Muslim Nations
Hezbollah urged Arab and Muslim countries to take concrete steps to counter “this colonial project,” warning that “if this scheme succeeds, it will bring catastrophic consequences—no independence, no resources, and no sovereign nations.” The party cautioned that “any leniency in confronting this plan will pave the way for the mass expulsion of West Bank residents and, eventually, all Palestinians in the occupied 1948 territories.”
‘Gaza Will Remain for Its People, Palestine Will Remain for Its People’
Concluding its statement, Hezbollah declared that “this latest aggression against Palestine and its people is doomed to total failure.” It stressed that “the Palestinian people, alongside all those who stand for justice, will remain steadfast in their land.”
The group asserted that “neither Trump’s power nor his conspiracies will break Palestinian resolve—rather, his plan will collapse, while Gaza and Palestine will remain in the hands of their rightful people.”
