After Trump-shared video turned Gaza into luxury resort, satirical retort brings Palestine to Mar-a-Lago

An Arab American community leader has created a satirical response to the “Trump’s Gaza” AI video that the US president shared on social media earlier this week.

The video posted by Trump appeared to depict a version of his controversial proposal for Washington to take over Gaza, relocate its residents and turn the enclave into the “Riviera of the Middle East.”

After the Trump-shared video appeared to bring Mar-a-Lago to Gaza, the Arab American community’s response brings Gaza to Mar-a-Lago.

The “Palestine’s Mar-a-Lago video was shared exclusively with The Times of Israel by a community leader who requested anonymity.

“The response jabs at Trump’s desire to impose an outside culture onto Gaza when he wouldn’t be willing to accept the same in his own home,” says the Arab American community leader.

Whereas “Trump’s Gaza” is played to techno music, the background music in “Palestine’s Mar-a-Lago” is oriental and offers a tour of the president’s luxury resort in Florida with what the narrator describes as “a twist.”

“It has been transformed into a vibrant celebration of Palestinian culture,” the narrator exclaims, highlighting the resort’s boasting of Palestinian flags, a statue of former Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat, and Palestinians too.

“This unique setting is not just about visuals. It’s a reminder of the resilience and spirit of the Palestinian people. It’s a mix of beauty, culture and a bit of political satire,” the narrator says. “Even [former UK prime minister] Boris Johnson had something to say, calling Mar-a-Lago ‘A fantastic place for Gazans.'”

“The opulence of Mar-a-Lago infused with the spirit of Palestine. It’s a unique blend that you won’t see anywhere else,” says the narrator.
