The two most obvious codes potentially breached by the Trump plan are the Geneva conventions – international treaties agreed in 1949 governing the treatment of civilians and military personnel during conflicts – and the 1998 Rome statute, which established the international criminal court to bring to justice individuals suspected of war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide where states either cannot or will not do so themselves.

U.S. President Donald Trump proposed on Wednesday a crazy, deranged, perverse and unfeasible idea that – by any legal definition – constitutes a crime against humanity on a historic scale: He would forcibly expel the 2 million residents of the Gaza Strip and build an American-owned Riviera for the world's wealthy on the ruins of their homes.

Iran has condemned Donald Trump’s plan to take control of Gaza and “forcibly displace” its residents, calling it “an unprecedented attack” on international law and the UN Charter.

Baghaei said that expressing such a thought was "astonishing and in line with Israel's targeted plan to completely eliminate the Palestinian nation," adding that the "claim of planning to own the Gaza Strip is an unprecedented violation against all the fundamental principles of international law and the United Nations (UN) Charter."
