Donald Trumps Turnberry golf resort in Scotland has been vandalized by activists in response to his recent statements on Gaza. The golf course in South Ayrshire, owned by the president, was targeted overnight on Friday, with activists painting Gaza Is Not 4 Sale in almost 10-foot-high letters on the lawn and damaging the greens, including the courses most prestigious hole, used in Open Championships.
Red spray paint was used to deface the clubhouse at the 800-acre resort. Palestine Action described it as a direct response to the U.S. administrations stated intent to ethnically cleanse Gaza.
Trumps recent comments include plans to clean out the whole thing and to turn the territory into the Riviera of the Middle East.
There was further outrage when the president posted an AI video on Truth Social, advertising his plans for the territory, which included himself and Israels president Benjamin Netanyahu, shirtless, drinking at the Trump Gaza resort.
