Or how about we give it to Russia in exchange for Crimea and rest of Ukraine's things.

Or give it to the Inuits? They might like a little warmer environment.

Move whole of Brussels (landmass included) there, making it the new EU headquarters?

Make it the first country run completely by AI? (seriously speaking, this would probably work way better than what has been tried before)

ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES

Palestine should extend to its internationally recognized borders as anything else is just an unsustainable non-nation, and thus nothing more than theatre and rewarding the Israeli fascists who have doing the "colonising" all these years and their fascist parties in government who right now are activelly commiting Genocide.

Further, Israel should be under Economic Sanctions from the EU until it complies.

This "international protectorate in Gaza" is just bullshit diplomatic cover for the genocidal actions of Israel - akin to "kill as many as you want and we'll calm down the rebelious feeling of the survivors in there afterwards" - that just endorses the status quo built by the Israeli fascists (thus rewarding them) and no doubt comes from the usual inept (or worse) politicians over there like Ursula van der Lyen who has never held a post were she didn't screw things up, in Germany or abroad.

This shit is like the Americans spewing their bollocks about "humanitarian pauses" whilst their government calls anybody critical of Israel "an anti-semite", parking 2 aircraft carriers in the region to "support Israel" and working on approval of a couple more billions for that country while it purposefully bombs civilians, only at least the leaders of the United States Of America aren't anywhere as stupid as wanting to put their own countrymen on the ground to sanitize the fast growing bloody pile of bones Israel has been raising in Palestine.

It's disgusting to watch this kind of sleazy diplomatic provision of covering to the genocidal fascists in Israel - invariably accepting of the very reshaping of Palestine that those fascists have imposed by violent means over the years and against UN resolutions and activelly refusing the possibility of sanctions against these specific genociders, quite a contrast to what was (deservedly) done with Russia after it invaded Ukraine.
