Donald Trump presented his surprising vision generated by artificial intelligence for Gaza, which includes casino hotels, huge golden statues of himself, and futuristic skyscrapers. This video, posted on his platform TruthSocial, shows a surreal world where extravagant elements blend, such as bearded dancers and an AI version of Elon Musk enjoying money falling from the sky.
The presentation takes place in the context of Trump’s plans to transform Gaza into “the Middle Eastern Riviera”. In the video, a Gaza devastated by conflicts, where an estimated 48,000 people have died, is portrayed as being rebuilt into a luxurious tourist destination.
“Una visión extravagante”
The 30-second clip begins with footage of Hamas fighters and children on a street full of debris, before posing the question: “Gaza 2025. What’s next?”. Then, it shows children running on a sunny beach and Tesla cars driving down a palm-lined avenue. In the middle of a street, a gigantic golden statue of Trump stands, while small statues of his figure are for sale in a hotel. Meanwhile, a child holds a huge golden balloon with Trump’s face on a road that could be in one of the most beautiful Italian cities or in Dubai.
In addition, Trump expanded his hotel chain in the area, with two Trump Gaza hotels illuminated with orange lights, where wealthy businessmen and tourists gather. Trump’s vision presents Gaza as an attractive tourist destination where residents and visitors would lead prosperous and enjoyable lives, instead of struggling in poverty against Israel. In the video, Musk also appears multiple times, showing an AI version of the tycoon dancing under a rain of money and enjoying a meal.
A Future in Reconstruction
Trump not only includes his figure in this fantasy; he also features Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, sitting next to him, both in swimsuits and enjoying cocktails by a hotel pool. The scene, although AI-generated, depicts both characters with prominent bellies, adding a touch of humor to the situation.
The video also features a series of futuristic skyscrapers and luxury yachts on the sea, while the soundtrack has an upbeat rhythm that repeats phrases like “Trump Gaza shines bright... Trump Gaza number one.” The lyrics include a message promising a bright future for Gaza, where there will be no more fear or tunnels.
Trump has described Gaza as a “sitio de demolición”, proposing that the area should be salvaged under U.S. control. His plan includes the relocation of two million Palestinians to neighboring Arab countries, as well as the complete reconstruction of the region. He stated: “We will be responsible for dismantling all bombs and other hazards on site.”
Reality continues to be more critical
Meanwhile, the situation in Gaza remains critical, with the recent Israeli bombings leaving much of the territory in ruins. Netanyahu is also working on a vision for Gaza, and it is believed that his ideas have influenced Trump’s plans. Trump, who has a history of interest in the Middle East, had already presented proposals to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict during his first term.
The recent presentation of his AI vision is not the first time this technology has been used to showcase the future of Gaza, as Netanyahu had previously shared his own development plans. The idea of displacing Palestinians has generated opposition in several Arab countries, and alternatives such as relocations to Ireland have been suggested.
This has led to diplomatic tensions, especially with provocative statements from Israeli officials claiming that nations like Spain, Ireland, and Norway have the legal obligation to accept the displaced. The complexity of the situation in Gaza continues as the world watches closely the proposals of Trump and Netanyahu, which seem to move away from a peaceful solution and towards a reimagining of the region that generates both interest and controversy.
