    Palestinian militants have a history of establishing enclaves and starting civil wars within the countries that host them. Arab countries have an apprehension about allowing too many Palestinians in because of this history.

      This was a sad thing to learn about. Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, Kuwait. All of them saw civil war or strife after taking in Palestinians :/.

        Yes, Iranian regimes have provided material aid to Palestinian militants towards their goals. That aid is still being provided, hence continuing apprehension.

        That’s really not the flex you think it is.

      Would it work for a larger country to fly in refugees, since hopefully they’d be much more resistant to civil wars? It’d be hard to sell your citizens on spending that much on non-citizens though.

        You’d basically be flying a while other small country into your country. I doubt any state wants that.

          They don’t all need to go one place, but I agree it’s unlikely to happen.

          This is potentially larger than the rwandan genocide if you count all 2M inhabitants. We can’t just let all these people die.

            Right? We could split them up more, basically make the entire population a refugee diaspora split among various Arab countries, but then that means the Jewish people just did to another people what they claim was bad for them. Plus, isn’t forcing migration is basically genocide? We can’t condemn Stalin for doing the same thing a country we support is doing.

              Yeah, that’d be pretty terrible. But letting them be killed would be a lot worse. If there aren’t enough supplies able to get in, and countries don’t want to force Israel, it might be the lesser of two evils.

        That is a better solution for those who want to flee or have the means or freedom to flee, or are ok with abandoning their communities and historical ties. However this would only help those refugees. For those who remain the situation will remain untenable until militants stop rising to power within Palestinian territories, and Israel negotiates a two state solution that involves giving up some land.

          I have a feeling we’ll have more refugees than capacity to help them. But I agree.
