Mustafa Barghouti, the general secretary of the Palestinian National Initiative, reacts to US President Donald Trump plan to forcibly expel Palestinians from Gaza so Washington can "have" the enclave.
In a wide-ranging interview, Barghouti also speaks about how ethnic cleansing has accelerated in the occupied West Bank amid rising settler attacks.
He draws on the history of the conflict to show how Israel has always intended to ethnically cleanse historical Palestine completely.
Despite this, Barghouti remains defiant and says that Palestinians would rather “die” than be forced to leave their homelands, again.
