    Like if they weren’t denied basic rights and locked up in a ghetto for decades to be indiscriminately murdered by Israel as they colonise Palestine?

    If only…

        Sorry what does that mean? Nearly half of the Jordanian population are ethnically Palestinian.

        I have seen this argument before. Could you explain what you mean by “them” and what you mean by Jordan not accepting them?

          As in, the country of Jordan does not let them in because they can’t handle a sudden influx of 2 million people?

          Think I’ve also answered the question as to how this would likely go, though.

            Jordan has opened its borders to Iraqi, Palestinians, Syrians, etc. They have a general policy of taking in refugees. I don’t think Jordan does a good job treating those refugees well, but it’s almost a diplomatic certainty that Jordan would let them in.

            So what exactly are you basing your opinion on?

            What do you think removing peoples from their land is?

            Your solution is for them to leave their homeland before they’re killed. That’s ethnic cleansing by result.

              Being forced to go somewhere isn’t ethnic cleansing. Killing people is. You’ve got the wrong definition of ethic cleansing.

                Forced deportation/resettlement is absolutely a form of ethnic cleansing, by definition.

                    Hypocrite? The fuck are you on about? Yes, Israel is engaged in ethnic cleansing. Has been for decades.
