    Looked like a demon on earth if I ever saw one - supports raping women, decapitating babies, putting them in ovens and killing every Jewish person

    Egypt will not accept them. No one else will accept them either. They have a home already.

    I know you have a hard time with logic and reasoning, but "calling for an election" and "interfering in a election" are 2 different things.

    Because they took their big swing and they lost. They can continue fighting until there is no one left if they want to, but what is the benefit of doing so. Israel has won the war, and the people of Gaza will either live under iron fisted Israeli occupation as a defeated people or move on to greener pastures.
    So you agree with me that they should leave. What is the first part of your post about?
    Over 140 countries are bound to accept them by their adoption of the Convention on the Status of Refugees. 6.7 million Syrian refugees fled and have been accepted throughout Europe and Asia. The same would happen with people fleeing from Gaza. No one is going to like it, but they aren't going to be sent out to sea and torpedoed.

    They also do not have a home. The majority of housing in Gaza has been leveled in the war between Israel and Hamas, and the war is still going. Israel has no reason to stop until Hamas is completely destroyed and that may not happen as long as people remain in Gaza (because Hamas hides among the population). There is already starvation, lack of access to water and healthcare, lack of shelter, and no safe zone from the fighting. They should move where the grass is greener.

    Moreover, they have never had a home. The Ottomans controlled Gaza, Egypt controlled Gaza, and Israel controlled Gaza. Gaza has never been an independent nation or a major part of an independent nation. The people living in Gaza are already stateless for the last 57 years. Prior to that they were Egyptian. Prior to that they were Ottoman. There is no Palestinian state and never has been. The closest they got was from 2005 to 2023, when Israel withdrew from Gaza and allowed them to run themselves internally. Their best chance for a state died on October 7th, when it was revealed they used that time and the billions of dollars in resources funneled into the area to try to attack Israel.

    Their plan was to attack and force the Israelis to fight them on their turf and underground
    And bet the Israelis won’t go hard since they got hostsges
    @AroundTheWorld

    The plan is failing. Hamas could end the war if they returned the hostages but that’s not happening.

    they got what they wanted
    @ROXRAN
    Except for winning
    And their dumb foot soldiers posting on a basketball forum that ain’t going to help
    We all know they are non contributors

    So having their physical houses destroyed doesn't mean they don't have a home. That land will always be their home.

    They have a unique culture that goes back thousands of years. It isn't Egyptian or anything else. Half or little more than half of Jordanians are Palestinian heritage and culture. That is the closest. Jordan doesn't have the resources to accept that number of refugees.

    It makes as much sense as telling the population of Guatemala that they will all need to move to Mexico and that should be fine since they mostly all speak Spanish. But the cultures are very different.

    Okay - so you don’t have any realistic answers. It boils down to they all die or find someone to take them in.

    I appreciate the honestly - although you could have been more direct to start off with.

    Genocide of find someone to take you. While there will be international outrage I am sure the world will get over it-

    The reality is ethnic cleansings are pretty common.Each one horrible.

    The term "proud to be an American" should instead be "fortunate to be an American".

    Fortunate to be born into a stable functioning state that never gets invaded.

    You know the other peeps talk about Ukraine and Russia

    How often do they actually go to war?
    It’s not the constant terrorists groups vs Israel.
    Hamas which is a terrorist group governed Gaza , they been planning this for a very long time. They’ve been telling their kids to kill Jews , so they went out and played their cards

    Ukraine and Russia won’t have as many conflicts as Israel and the Arabs

    I know the woke here don’t know history

    guess who won the Yom Kippur war ?
