DeSantis says US shouldn’t take in Palestinian refugees from Gaza because they’re ‘all antisemitic
AP News ^

Posted on 10/17/2023 7:20:20 AM PDT by MNDude

Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis said the United States should not take in any Palestinian refugees if they flee the Gaza Strip because they “are all antisemitic” and he dismissed international entreaties for Israel to provide clean running water and utilities to the 2.3 million civilians in the territory.

DeSantis’ comments were a striking departure from the public stand taken by U.S. officials, including some of his fellow Republicans, who draw distinctions between the aims of the Palestinian people and those of Hamas. The militant group has ruled has Gaza since 2007 and launched an attack against Israel last weekend.

DeSantis’ endorsement of such tactics comes as he has advocated hard-line policies as a White House candidate. He suggested that not providing water or other services would persuade Hamas to release the hostages it has taken during its incursion

Hi.

“Hay alguna profesia que diga que “Estados Unidos” sera destruido desde adentro?”

No, but the entire north American continent is not mentioned in the Bible (Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth).

DeSantis is right.

No Palestinian refugees should be admitted to the USA.

They are an intrinsically hostile population from a culture which is incompatible with Western culture and seeks to destroy it.

How do we respond and have discussions here

You've cracked the code. These people do not want to have discussions, much less intelligent discussions. If they wanted to have intelligent discussions, they would make intelligent comments. They don't. They defecate childish insults. Childish insults, namecalling, and stereotyping serve their purpose of STIFLING intelligent discussion.

“The U.S. should not be absorbing any of those. I think the culture — so they elected Hamas, let’s just be clear about that. Not everyone’s a member of Hamas, most probably aren’t. But they did elect Hamas,” he said of people in Gaza.

While there may be exceptions to the rule (generally using the word "all" isn't wise imo) I think he's right here. Elections have consequences. They elected terrorists. They parade in the streets for terrorists. Their textbooks are written and approved by terrorists. They voted poorly. I haven't heard of Gazans taking to the streets demanding new elections or protesting Hamas rule in any way. I haven't seen potential Palestinian opposition figures exiled in another country calling for their ouster.

Maybe it's just lack of media coverage. But it's appeared to me that the civilians in Gaza never seemed all too upset about their terrorist leaders.

An interesting article about the Christians who want to stay in Gaza. Many think a one-state solution will be best which makes one wonder about their view of reality. Some seem to think that Israelis will discriminate against them, which is bizarre compared to what Muslims do to Christians. How many girls/women who are kidnapped for use as Muslim brides will it take for them to realize that Hamas isn’t worth living under?

Not only that, they’d be a huge economic burden.

Florida’s taken in more than their share of ‘immigrants’. If New York and Chicago want them, fine. But no, we’ve done our part in Florida.

I'm sure that the Retard-in-Chief has already imported several brigades of terrorists at the southern border.

No refugees in Jordan, no refugees in Egypt,” King Abdullah said at a news conference following a meeting with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in Berlin.

‘Meanwhile, Egyptian security sources have dismissed proposals to allow Gazans fleeing the conflict to enter that country, with one saying they would not allow safe corridors so as to protect “the right of Palestinians to hold on to their cause and their land.”’

About all one can do with the immature is to not bother to try to have a mature discussion with them and to ignore them until they have something rational to say.

Billionaire Leslie Wexner, who donates enormous amounts of money to fund hospitals, educational institutions, etc., just announced that he is cutting ties with Harvard over their irresponsible lack of real leadership in condemning Hamas for their unprovoked slaughter of hundreds of Israelis and their failure to condemn the student groups of antisemitic idiots for their cheering on of this event.

We’ve been headed that way for over 75 years. Don’t need prophecy to see that.

What’s wrong with what he said? It’s true

Truth hurts. Here's an idea: Why not ask the American people if they would like Hamas terrorists invited into our Country.
