The case for resettling Palestinian refugees in the US
The Hill ^ | 06/08/2024 | J. KEVIN APPLEBY

Posted on 06/08/2024 6:54:06 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

The Biden administration recently floated the idea of resettling a limited number of Palestinian refugees from Gaza to the United States. As a nation, it’s the least we can do.

The reported proposal would bring Palestinians with immediate family ties in the U.S. to our shores. It is unclear how many Palestinians would qualify, but it would likely remain far below the need.

Sounds straightforward, right? Wrong. The history of the Palestinian refugee question is fraught, as Palestinians have called for the “right to return” for refugees to their homeland, which is now part of Israel or claimed by Israel. The Israelis have in various ways rejected this demand, or postponed it to the day when it might become part of an imagined comprehensive Middle East peace agreement.

Wrong!

The least we can do is leave them where they are. After all, that's what they voted for. Take those funds that would be spent on this idiotic plan and spend it on our veterans.

"resettling a limited number of Palestinian refugees from Gaza to the United States. As a nation, it’s the least we can do."

Are the Jewish folks still voting for the rats.?

“..My only connection with Robert Kennedy was his support for Israel and his conscious attempt to send those 50 bombers to Israel that was intended to have obvious harm with the Palestinians…..and some scholars believed that this assassination was the primary considerable incident of the political violence that took place in the United States staunching from Arab-Israeli conflict in the Middle East…”

America does not need radical muslims here...The koran does not allow them to assimilate. The Dearborn, Mi. crowd already stated they want the islamic flag flying over the White House.

“They should also have “come to Jesus” moment regarding immigration control.”

I wonder if they had any relatives in Southern Israel on Oct. 7th?

How about “resettling” them in Qatar or Saudi Arabia,. They have lots of empty space and lots of $$$$$.

The “Palestinians” are rejected by every nation on the planet for one important reason: They are primarily terrorists, man, woman, and child.

The Palestinians stated, primary purpose in life is to kill Jews. They have consistently stated this over the years, and have acted on it innumerable times. No other Arab nation wants them because they worship at the altar of death, and will focus their death worship on any who oppose them. Bringing them to the USA is so stupid, thoughtless, and feckless as to defy belief, which means that’s exactly what Washington will do.
