Israeli lawmakers urge the West to accept refugees from Gaza, in WSJ op-ed
All Israel News ^ | November 15, 2023 | All Israel News Staff

In a jointly penned opinion piece published in The Wall Street Journal, two Israeli Members of Knesset recently urged Western nations to welcome Palestinian refugees from Gaza amid the Israel-Hamas war.

Israeli Knesset Member Danny Danon of the Likud party and opposition lawmaker, Knesset Member Ram Ben-Barak from the centrist Yesh Atid party stressed that the Hamas terrorist organization is ultimately responsible for civilian casualties and suffering among both Gazan residents and Israelis...

“Hamas’s unprovoked terrorist attack on Oct. 7 has endangered not only Israel but the more than two million people who live in the Gaza Strip. Although Hamas won 2006 elections in Gaza and took control of the area from the Palestinian Authority the following year, the group has said that it bears no responsibility for the people living there,” the two lawmakers wrote...

“Europe has a long history of assisting refugees fleeing conflicts. The wars in the former Yugoslavia displaced millions, most of them from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Germany, Austria and Sweden accepted large numbers. When the Kosovo war erupted, hundreds of thousands of Kosovar Albanians fled to neighboring Albania and the country now called North Macedonia.”...

“European countries including Germany, Sweden and France have provided refuge to Syrians since the civil war started in 2011. Between 2015 and 2016, Germany alone admitted more than 1.2 million refugees and asylum-seekers, about a quarter of whom were Syrian.”

Danon and Ben-Barak urged “countries around the world to accept limited numbers of Gazan families who have expressed a desire to relocate.”

Many Israeli right-wingers appear to support the relocation of some Gazan families overseas. However, some Arab countries have argued that Israel ultimately is seeking to expel the Arab population from the Gaza Strip.

The Catholic Church is doing it with eyes wide open, whereas most Born Again Christians stand strongly against it.

I don't know what most Born Again Christians are doing. I have heard that many Evangelical churches, like much of Christianity, has embraced feminism, BLM, CRT, and the LGBT agenda. Not most, but many.

The blame on Israel is the lefts fault. They made Israel look divided and vulnerable. The left is the same everywhere. Israel should not pawn them off on us.

Then they have apostatized. Also, Paul reprimanded Peter for not eating with Gentiles. The original belief was that Gentiles had to become Jewish to be saved. It WAS never thought that once Jews accepted YESHUA, they stopped being Jewish.

How do you say NO a hundred million times?!? We have thousands of illegals coming across our borders every week and you want us to take in your enemy’s refugees too? Tell the rest of the middle east they are their problem.

that Israel is sick and tired of these Fakestinian savages is very very very understandable. I don’t know why Jerusalem didn’t repatriate them back to their home countries long ago, by force if necessary.

but be that as it may,
there’s a reason why both Israel and the Arab countries don’t want these Satanic terrorists and their supporters anymore. NEITHER DO WE IN USA! Rather, we want to send the ones that have gotten in here back to Araby or whatever Krapistan they like. ASAP!

Maybe there’s an island somewhere, far from any civilized country, where we can ship them. Let them bomb, maim, torture, gangrape, and buther themselves for a change instead of good decent people. (Make sure to put a blockade flotilla around the island so they don’t ever get at civilization again. And use ground radar to make sure they don’t build terror tunnels under the sea to attack us.)

Israel is only asking the west because no Muslim nations will accept them.

And for the same reasons we should not accept them: they cause serious harm wherever they go.

Scotland is facing a demographic disaster and is a miserable place to live, so they’ll take any immigrants who are willing to move there.

If they expect imported Muslims will be productive taxpayers who will keep their welfare system afloat, they will have a rude awakening.

All of Europe, hell all of the West, will shortly experience a crash, followed by an explosion when the welfare systems collapse.

Modern Talmudic Judaism is descended from the Pharisees.

It WAS never thought that once Jews accepted YESHUA, they stopped being Jewish.

Why is it important that Jews who accept Christ be considered Jewish? And in what sense are they still Jewish?

Ethnically Jewish? But there are no pure ethnic Jews, or pure anyone, after 2,000 years of conversions (back and forth) and intermarriages.

Theologically Jewish? But those who follow Christ are Christians. Peter eventually referred to himself and others as Christian (1 Peter 4:16).

The Scotish people don't expect that. Globalist neoliberal economists tell that to European proles, as an excuse to import the third world into Europe.

Because the faith was dejudaized. And the root of the faith is Jewish. Replacment Theology is unbiblical, Judizing is also unbiblical. Paul calls himself a Jew in all his letters as does Peter.

Someone has a screw loose... We can’t assimilate all the border jumpers Biden’s invited in... and now we’re suppose to take people who put babies in ovens while they rape the mother? Hell no.

Europe has a long history of assisting refugees fleeing conflicts.

That could be said of Israel as well, and it's a lot closer.
