    I am always curious, why does Egypt not want to help Palestinian refugees? Or even allow then to travel through?

      Good question. The official position is that they would not be able to go back to gaza once the war ended. And therefore they would be helping israel in displacing the palestinian people of their lands.

      Plus, i suspect no one really wants 2M “permanent” refugees. On election season no less.

      Because then in 5 years israel would start attacking and creating “buffer zones” within Egypt until Egypt ceases to exist.

      Israel is like the Nazi’s in every single way. They want to keep expanding their lebensraum and genocide everyone who isn’t of their race.

      Deplacing the Palestinians would only worsen the problem because they are not the problem, israel is.

    So you support the displacement of the people of israel?

    1. Where to?
    2. Which people? Anyone who is an Israeli citizen?

      You know, when you advantage a hypothetical displacement over an ongoing one, the implicit argument is that Israelis are superior to Palestinians. You’re asking: wouldn’t it be horrible for the Palestinians to do to the Israelis what the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians?

      If you think it’s unfair to displace one oppressed people in favor of another, then yea, I agree.

        I think it’s unfair to expect a people to just belly up and die because Jihadists are using their own people as human shields. There have been over 7 times where the Palestinian people have had a chance to establish an actual state. They refused each and every time. So I’m struggling to see a parallel between what Israel is doing (defending its people) vs what you are suggesting.

      Ah yes, the millions of innocent palestianians that had their homeland taken from them and are now being bombed are literally just ask guilty as the people doing the invading and bombing. Very enlightened take.
