Egypt official tells Europe to take in 1m Gazans if ‘you care about human rights so much’
A senior Egyptian official has reportedly mockingly demanded that Europe take in one million Gazan refugees if it cares “about human rights so much”, as Cairo continues to grow ever...
You're viewing part of a thread.
So you're basically saying Gazans should stay put and hope that there's peace before they're murdered. I see.
I'm saying that if Gazans move now, it's one extra tragedy they don't need to fucking deal with. Gazans are in this now because Israel is killing them and destroying their homes, and yet on top of that they have to also take all their shit and leave, which can only be done with great difficulty already, not to mention Israel made sure to displace 1m+ people already in the past two weeks?
You can mold this statement to whatever form you want that makes you feel better.
Every single thing Gazans are going through now is with Israel literally pulling the trigger and making the decision. I read today that one Hamas official was killed. I wondered if it was worth it? 5kcivilians dead, thousands missing, almost half of the dead are children, people buried in mass graves... was it worth killing one single Hamas fighter for this many civilians? Was it worth making a new holocaust? Was it worth committing genocide? And Israel's "only solution" with their infinite power and technology and foreign support was to bomb the shit out of them, breaking their bones under their own destroyed homes? Fuck this.
There are three things Gazans can do: Flee through Israel (never going to happen), flee through Egypt (all Egypt has to do is say yes), or stay put and die.
You are repeatedly suggesting they should stay put and die.
Actually what I'm repeatedly suggesting is that Israel stop fucking bombing them.
Israel's genocidal. Get over it.
What is a more likely scenario: Gazans get to flee Gaza or Israel stops the genocide?
This is like someone saying "Jews shouldn't leave Germany, Germans should stop the Holocaust." As if either was something that Israel or the Nazis would be willing to do.
Because, again, Gazans have three options: Flee through Israel (impossible), flee through Egypt (could be possible), or stay put and die.
There are no other options.
You would have them stay put and hope Israel says "sorry, our bad" and stops bombing them.
Also, I've been saying Israel has been perpetrating a genocide repeatedly this whole time, so what exactly do I need to get over?
What is a more likely scenario: Gazans get to flee Gaza or Israel stops the genocide?
What you should ask is which one is the correct one. And we all know which one that is.
What is "correct" and what will actually happen are two different things.
Do you think Israel will just say, "whoopsie! Sorry about that! We'll stop bombing you now!" I mean what, in specific, realistic terms would get them to stop doing that? Let's hear your plan. Because I told you what I think- I think there's no way to stop Israel committing a genocide so Gazans need to get the hell out of Gaza before they're all murdered and Egypt should let them.
So let's hear your plan. "Israel needs to stop the genocide" is not a plan. Let's hear what specifically you think should realistically happen and how it should happen.
If sanctions are placed on the they might.
Because sanctions have totally stopped Russia from invading Ukraine, right? And what should Gazans do while waiting for the sanctions to take effect? Stay put and hope they don't get murdered?
Because sanctions have totally stopped Russia from invading Ukraine, right? It helped and placed pressure on Russia.
And what should Gazans do while waiting for the sanctions to take effect? Stay put and hope they don’t get murdered?
YES. They should seek shelter and hope Israel doesn't bomb the shit out of them.
