    You know things have gone to shit when one of Hitler’s speeches not only becomes relevant again but literally describes the situation in facsimile

    A bullshit argument “Hen Mazzig” has. That land is owned by the Palestinians. They don’t want to leave, it is Israel forcibly removing people from their land, and then whining that the Palestinian’s friends won’t let them crash on the couch. They want to live in the land that they either bought or inherited from their family.

      Yeah thats the comparison between what he and Hitler are trying to do there. Just complain that they can’t empty a land of people born somewhere as easily and quickly as they’d prefer.

    Apart from the obvious, it isn’t even true that those countries (with the possible exception of Egypt, whose oppressive government defers to Israel and the US on all international matters) aren’t accepting Palestinian refugees.

    Hell, Lebanon is a country of 5 million people, of which an estimated 1.5 million are Syrian refugees and almost half a million are Palestinians. And that’s not even counting all the Lebanese people who are descendants of Palestinian refugees but no longer identify as Palestinians!

    Isn’t it that if they start accepting Palestinian refugees, they’re helping to empty Palestine and helping Israel take the land?

    Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi made his toughest remarks yet on Wednesday, saying the current war was not just aimed at fighting Hamas, which rules the Gaza Strip, “but also an attempt to push the civilian inhabitants to … migrate to Egypt.” He warned this could wreck peace in the region.

    … Their refusal is rooted in fear that Israel wants to force a permanent expulsion of Palestinians into their countries and nullify Palestinian demands for statehood. El-Sissi also said a mass exodus would risk bringing militants into Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula, from where they might launch attacks on Israel, endangering the two countries’ 40-year-old peace treaty.

    … But Arab countries and many Palestinians also suspect Israel might use this opportunity to force permanent demographic changes to wreck Palestinian demands for statehood in Gaza, the West Bank and east Jerusalem, which was also captured by Israel in 1967.

    El-Sissi repeated warnings Wednesday that an exodus from Gaza was intended to “eliminate the Palestinian cause … the most important cause of our region.” He argued that if a demilitarized Palestinian state had been created long ago in negotiations, there would not be war now.

    “All historical precedent points to the fact that when Palestinians are forced to leave Palestinian territory, they are not allowed to return back,” said H.A. Hellyer, a senior associate fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. “Egypt doesn’t want to be complicit in ethnic cleansing in Gaza.”
