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.

It’s a hard no.

Let the Islamic world take in their own.

We have enough of this imported evil in our homeland already. Western Europe has a lethal level of it.

An author interviewed today was asked how suddenly so much virulent anti-Semitism came out everywhere in the US in cities and on campuses.

His one theory was a significant number of Muslims are in the huge surge of illegals and they influence the areas, and his example was Minnesota.
Can’t argue that Minnesota is surprisingly Muslim. I can add Hamtramck, Michigan, former mostly Polish city bordering Detroit and was the first US city to have a Muslim mayor and entirely Muslim city council. Near Dearborn, MI with over half Muslims and Muslim Mayor.

Obama will soon be able to travel everywhere in the US and the most beautiful sound he ever heard, the Muslim Call to Prayer.

Wrong! They made themselves refugees by electing Hamas. Don’t blame Israel for what demons did.

No one's blaming Israel for making them refugees. People are blaming Israel for wanting to export their refugees to the West.

I stand with Israel. But anyone who urges that we accept “refugees” from Gaza can kiss my ass.

If Israel keeps attempting to export their mad Muslims over here they are going to lose a lot of Americans’ sympathy and support.

This has been the position of the Left and Right in Israel for decades.

Israelis and other Jews have facilitated the importation of millions of Muslims to the West.

They get a two-fer: The destruction of nationalism in Europe and the US and less enemies to contend with at home.

2 individuals said this, not the whole country

From two different parties. Bipartisan support.

A three-fer. Muslims terrorism in the West encourages Jews to immigrate to Israel.

I thing they want people in other countries to understand the hell they have been going through, just as Texans and Floridians wanted those in other states to realize what open borders were doing to them.

Just kill all of the Muslims ones.

Why should we be required to take that sewage. Keep that sh*t over there. We’ve already got all the sewage we need coming across the border from the south.
