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.

resettling Palestinians in the US is the same as resettling Islamic terrorists in the US. They are one and the same!!!!

My case for settling the Palestinians in the US consists of a single sheet of paper in a fold and it’s blank.

In Egypt, the so-called Palestinians shot at police officers and government types and were kicked out. In Jordan, they tries to overthrow the government and got kicked out. In Lebanon, they fomented a civil war and unfortunately Lebanon has been unable to kick them out.

Sure, let’s invite them here!

“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.”

Sounds like the Jews in the US better have a “come to Jesus” moment regarding the Second Amendment, and SOON.

They’re well known for s**tting their nests wherever they go. The Arab world talks about sympathy but literally none of them want the palis anywhere near their country. We should resettle them in Haiti and see who wins.

That’s why we had Sami al Arian and Palestinian Islamic Jihad living in TAMPA.

I remember how the 1968 Presidential race was thrown into a cocked hat when A PALESTINIAN IMMIGRANT shot Bobby Kennedy, the front runner dead.
The US is still suffering from that day and the anti-violence hysteria that followed.

Try Somalia. It is closer and they would be just another warring tribe.

I would say, maybe the Christians, but Sirhan Sirhan was a Christian.

Cue patsy theories.

No kidding. These people are delusional Leftists. “It is the least we can do?”

That does make me want to spit.
