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.

YESHUA is a Jew.

Judaism schismed in the first century.

The Judaism that followed Jesus -- the Judaism of Jesus -- changed its name to Christianity. (Jesus did found the Christian Church -- upon this Rock I will build MY Church.)

The Judaism that rejected Jesus -- Talmudic Judaism -- kept the name Judaism. But it's not the Judaism of Jesus. Jesus is not Jewish in the sense that today's Jews are Jewish.

They can, of course, convert. As can anyone else.

Right now, it is just 2 idiots talking. I’m much more concerned about OUR Nwo occupation government bringing them here.

"Just two idiots talking" is a trial balloon to gauge the public resistance to the idea of taking in Palestinians expelled from Gaza.

And the reaction is: "HELL NO".

Any American political figure who supports this must be immediately forced out of office. "By any means necessary" as the leftists are so fond of saying.

I’m more worried about OUR deep state pressuring or facilitating Israel to do it.

I don't think Israel needs to be "pressured" to keep from sending its Muslim neighbors to Germany, Sweden, Britain, or the U.S.

Oh HELL NO! Their Arab Muslim “brothers” can take them in. They’ve got plenty of space, speak the same language, are of the same religion, etc.

Israel is proposing it, the leaders of the Catol8cChurch here and the Pope are doing it.

Yes, the Catholic Church is doing it.

But Israel has also been doing it. For many years now.

I saw a YouTube video in the late 2010s, showing Israeli volunteers in Greece, helping Syrian refugees come ashore. I remember think, Syrian is next door to Israel. Why isn't she helping them enter Israel?

Also, we Christians who are helping these refugees enter our countries are destroying ourselves, through our own ignorance and misguided benevolence.

Israelis exporting refugees are helping destroy other people's countries, and they're doing it with full knowledge.

Which is worse?

Israel is not without some blame. And it definitely is not our fault. If they do not want them, why should we?

No, and you need to re- read Roman’s 9 to1. Biblical Old Testement Judaism ended at the cross. Messianic Judaism / True Biblical Christianity was then established. You 2nd part is correct. Messianic Judaism is Biblical Judaism. The man you call the first Pope was Jewish all his l8fe.

True.

And refugees from one African country have many other African countries to choose from. No need to go to Europe.

She also wants your real name Dalberg...

When are conservatives going to wake up and realize the very party they try to be loyal to thinks they are livestock and are just as communist as the left?

I think that our and Israel’s deep states allowed it to try and get rid of Netenyahu.
