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.

You could be right about that and do not need those people in this country.

Someone has a screw loose... No, we’ve taken in enough third world folks who showed ZERO respect for our borders.

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.

I don’t even want the idiots in our country who support them.. Anyone NOT offended by what Hamas did needs to move to Gaza and live with these folks.

<< the two lawmakers urged European Union states to consider taking in Gazans who wish to flee the war-torn coastal enclave in a similar fashion as the large number of Syrian refugees in 2015. >>

EU, not the U.S. Nowhere is the U.S. mentioned in the article. I guess those two lawmakers think that Western Europe is already toast. And they’d be right.

Those two Israeli lawmakers don't give a damn about Western Europe, but I do. I still hope for its rebirth. And I hope the EU says no to Israel.

I hope the EU says no as well, but you can forget about a rebirth of W. Civ in W. Europe. Cultural suicide by guilt-ridden white progs is almost complete.

Meanwhile, most posters on this thread apparently didn’t read the article. No Israeli lawmaker is proposing any refugees come here to the States.

No, we will not accept Arabs—now Jews, yes, If Israel falls you are welcome here.

Because the West is in the process of committing seppuku, especially with respect to the Imperialism emanating from the Middle East, that might not be a wise choice for Jews. Instead there are some nations in the South Asia who have a long and bitter experience with this Imperialism who might be a better long term option.

Would appear that they haven’t taken notice of the conditions in MOST of the Western countries with problems of their own with refugees - legal and illegal...European countries are overrun with Muslim refugees, I understand. Put them on planes or camels (I don’t care) to Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Pakistan, wherever - leave the Western countries out of the equation!

>> Israeli lawmakers urge the West to accept refugees from Gaza

The answer is no. And remember, a significant percentage of “Israeli lawmakers” are NOT!!! righteous GOD-fearing Jews, but rather, secular marxists.

If muslim palis want to come to the US, let them swim from “palestine” to a port of entry.
