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.

Jews, Catholics and Mormons (and mainline Christian groups along with mostly every wacko left-winger and nearly all GOP leaders except for Trump & a few others) want refugees inundating us here.

America needs to end immigration for at least a few decades and it definitely doesn’t need any Muslims at all.

Terrorist risk aside...

95% of all Muslim imports are on welfare. At least it was that way in Germany when I lived there. The ONLY employment was government agencies making sure the government kept handing out the gibsmedats. HELL no.

What isn’t an excuse to let more foreign nationals in?

This from the Hill, huh? Do the Hill staffers know that the Palestinian ‘refugees’ want to throw about half of the Hill staff from the top of a several story building?

There is no case for bringing seventh century savages into our country. Especially ones who hate us and want us dead.

Does Mike Johnson think this is a good idea?

Not sure, but looks like Johnson didn't try very hard to find the billions for "refugee resettlement" in the Israel/Ukraine aid bill he backed.

Leave it to the despicable pricks at The Hill to grease the skids for another Biden national betrayal.

Not only is it ‘NO’ - but it’s hell ‘NO’...

And I don’t want those people allowed to even visit our country for 3 to 5 years.

It’s the “least we can do”???

No, it’s about a million times more than the MOST we should do.
