Problem with that is that we already (reportedly) have one senior Hamas official laying out how Hamas pursued this strategy as cover for planning their Jihad against Israel.UTExan said:

Yes the Gaza Strip needs leaders similar to the West Bank leaders so that the radical Hamas type culture can be expelled from that society.. those Gaza Strip kids have zero chance of leading normal lives if Hamas is brain washing them from day one …. as for Hamas itself, I think your seeing what's going to happen to them now, Israel isn't stopping till they are red mistaggiez03 said:
Hopefully, 6 feet under if they support Hamas.
The rest of them should come together and create a functional society like Israel and Eqypt their two neighbors have.

Israel doesn't want to expel them from Gaza. It wants them to stay there and be peaceful neighbors, if they are willing to do so. It wants to expel the Hamas ideology from Gaza.
Yep, most Americans don't understand how the ME works at all. It was actually something Trump understood very well to his credit and I think DeSantis also does. Trump was probably a little too Pro Saudi, DeSantis is on the edge of too Pro Israel. They are the best options in terms of countries to have as allies in the region but make no mistake, both of them will always put their own interests first just like most countries not called the US (so many Americans are so naive and arrogant they can't understand this).eric76 said:That's what I understand.Rapier108 said:
No one wants them and for good reason.
Nobody wants them and nobody really wants to go to war to help them.
Some time after Obama was elected, he went on a state visit to Saudi Arabia and met with the King of Saudi Arabia. When they sat down for a talk about Saudi Arabia's issues, Obama just wanted to talk about the Palestinians. The King of Saudi Arabia was reported taken by surprise because Palestinian issues were far down his list of concerns and he couldn't understand how a President of the United States could be so ignorant about the Middle East to think that they were of any real concern.
At least, that's the way I remember it.
While the other countries in the Middle East may give them lip service, they really aren't that much of a concern to them. None of them are going to want the Palestinians to become refugees in their countries.

I believe the issues with Egypt run a bit deeper than just not wanting the refugees. In the minds of Islam, all Muslims are most certainly not created equally.BonfireNerd04 said:
Where should they be resettled? Egypt is closest, but is refusing refugees due to "security concerns" (and they're not wrong).
Very good observations and information in your post and agree with the overall takes.aggie93 said:

The Palestinians are the lowest tier among Arabs and Arabs are fundamentally tribal and have a very different value set than we do. I was actually watching "Lawrence of Arabia" the other night again and it unintentionally expresses this very well if unintentionally so. I would encourage people to watch it and think in terms of how the region operated prior to oil being discovered and as the Colonial period was coming to an end. There is very much of a ranking order among tribes and in general they hate each other and love to fight, they certainly don't give a damn about another tribe being killed unless it benefits or hurts them in some way. There is no magic solution that will fix it in more than a temporary way.

Ideally yes, realistically no. Look at a map. To get to Iran you have to go through Jordan or Syria and then Iraq to get to Iran. I mean I guess you would try a mass shipping of people but Egypt isn't likely to let you go through the Suez so you would have to go to the Gulf of Aqaba. No easy path and you have to get the other Arab countries to cooperate.texag84 said:

I think you missed the part where Israel said they are going to eradicate Hamas. That doesn't mean people who have been brainwashed from birth to hate Jews to the point of wanting to kill them all should be left to do anything post-annihilation. Every member of Hamas should be put to the sword. You think you can rehabilitate them? Your take is very nave and dangerous.Dan Scott said:
If Israel blows the crap out of Gaza, anybody still there will be pissed off at Israel. In the old days, anybody left would be killed or slaved. We don't do that anymore. It's going to take a Japan style occupation. Unlike Iraq, Israel shouldn't fire the Hamas military and leave them on their own to insurgence. Give them jobs and funding to rebuild with a watchful eye.
there are more Arab Christians inside Israel today than there are Christians in Gaza.aggie93 said:There are very few Christians in Palestine. Unfortunately any way you slice it a lot of innocent people are caught in the crossfire of this and that's the choice of Hamas and the Palestinians. Israel has to do whatever it needs to do.AlaskanAg99 said:
This is a tough take, but not all Palestinians are Muslim. Some are Christian. This complicates the issue but a blanket order is not that great. I would hope their security forces have backgrounds on everyone, but who knows.
Something like 59% of Palestinians voted for Hamas. Just like not everyone voted for Biden, can't paint a wide brush. This is on Israel to sort out, and it's clear Egypt doesn't trust them. But can't sweep everyone out. Because of where we are as a nation.

They vote for Hamas?
I am not versed in Palestinian affairs. How does this work? You vote for terrorists?

That just kicks the can down the road. Then you move Hamas from Israel's southern border to their northern.mjschiller said:
