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

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.

I have family in Israel, and I know that this would be fantastic for Israel - but NO, NO, NO Paleoswinians from Gaza should be admit to this country. Zero, zip, nada, nine!

A few years back, I heard a proposal to resettle the Palestinians in France, with the country renamed Frankenstine. Since France’s population is shrinking rather than growing, if there isn’t room for the Palestinians in France now, there will be soon. The only problem I see with such a move is that it would probably ruin the French wine industry.

There are plenty of wealthy, oil-rich, arab nations in the middle east with plenty of room and resources to resettle their "arab brothers". Places like Saudi Arabia and the UAE who have to import workers can easily absorb these so-called "refugees" into a country and culture that is more familiar to them and in-line with their beliefs.

The dirty little secret: No one in the middle east wants them. Otherwise they would have been taken into Egypt already.
