Donald Trump's suggestion he could take over Gaza casts a shadow on hopes for a two-state solution. 

The President said today Palestinians could be resettled and the US could redevelop the territory.

Israel's Prime Minister says the idea is worth paying attention to.

"It doesn't seem like Mr Trump is actually applying too much thinking about how tensions in the region can be resolved - as opposed to transplanting them elsewhere."
