    Why do they have to state it when they clearly aren’t?

      Because then it’s unsourced opinion/speculation. Bickering between Egypt and Israel aside, if Egypt unilaterally opened their side of the Rafah crossing, Israel has said they would not let refugees leave?

        Again, they don’t need to say it.

        They’re still stationed at the border between Gaza and Egypt. They could walk away and leave it up to Egypt.

        They aren’t.

        Because they don’t want anyone to leave.

        Actions speak louder than words.

          You stating it doesn’t make it true, that’s where evidence comes in. I can state that Egypt’s actions demonstrate the same, they could just walk away. And with just as much evidence as you provided.

          I understand this is your personal opinion, and that there is no evidence supporting your claims of Israel’s intentions to not let refugees leave, even to Egypt. I won’t be continuing this discussion with you.

            It’s not an opinion. It’s a fact. Israeli troops are stationed at the border between Gaza (not their country) and Egypt.

            They do not have to be there. Again, not their country.

              A “fact” you just can’t seem to source.

                  You know what, I’ll keep going :)

                  Quote where I said there aren’t IDF troops. Because it would be a shame if you were lying about what I said. This is where evidence (not opinion) comes in.

                    What I said is that they should be allowed to leave and they aren’t being allowed to because they can’t cross a border due to an invading force controlling it.

                    Israel is controlling a border that is not theirs to control. That is not in dispute. Therefore there is only one nation that has control over who gets in and out of Gaza. The idea that they would control the border and give freedom of passage is silly.

                    Have you seen a mass refugee exodus? Do you think Gazans want to stay there and die? Are you under the impression that Hamas somehow controls virtually the entire Gazan population to the point that basically none of them have fled?

                    This is ludicrous. You must just be trolling at this point.
