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.

The Kuwaitis would rather do their own dishes and clean their own homes before they let Palestinians into their country

Several decades ago, Israel replaced many of their Palestinian workers with Filipino guest workers.

Probably several million Filipino guest workers throughout the Mideast including Kuwait.

There is no case where they should be importing these people.

They are as bad culturally and religiously as Somalis. Maybe worse, if that is possible. They will be a dagger aimed at our throats forever.

Compared to what’s coming over the border right now, they’d be an improvement.

Look at their history. "Palestinians" do not relocate, they infiltrate.

The so-called "Palestinians" are simply Syrian and Jordanian trouble-makers who were kicked out of those countries for following the paramilitary group Fatah led by Yasser Arafat (a native of Egypt) in the 1960s. They then fled to Lebanon and Fatah's militant branch called Black September committed the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre of 11 Israeli athletes.

After that, Arafat aligned the PLO with Lebanese rebels during their civil war in the late 1970s until Arafat was finally expelled from Lebanon in 1982.

Arafat then settled in Tunisia. After a failed assassination attempt, Arafat relocated his headquarters in Iraq. After Arafat sided with Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait, other Arab nations cut off funding of Arafat and the PLO. After Arafat signed the 1993 Oslo Accords, he relocated to the Gaza Strip, and later Ramallah where he died in 2004.

In 2005, Israel withdrew from the Gaza Strip and turned control of the area over to Fatah. In 2007, Fatah was defeated by Hamas, an Islamic Jihadist group that instituted Islam Law, forced out all Christian schools and businesses, and began its campaign of continuous indiscriminate rocket attacks against Israel.

The point of all this is that the so-called "Palestinians" are really the descendants of cast-off radicals from Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Tunisia, and Iraq. Let those countries take them in again. They cause trouble wherever they go, and we don't need them to gain a foothold here to continue their Jihad from within the United States.

Give Biden and family a one-way ticket to Palestine and force them on a military cargo plane. An old cargo plane like the ones that took 23 hours to get to Germany from Dover after one refuel stop would be fine. Let them sit on cargo boxes like I did.

It's identical with the case for electing Joe Biden.

The ONLY case for bringing these filthy Mooslims into the US is as food for the domestic cannibals. No other reason, at all. /spit

Anyone arguing for this needs to be shown the wall Egypt built on their border with Gaza, and be asked to explain why Egypt thought this necessary. It makes Trump’s border wall look like child’s play.
