Why the West should welcome Gaza refugees

#Israel #Gaza #Hamas

i.e. they want to steal the rest of their land. This is a disgrace

[yanivgluck]

As an Israeli I can say that this guy is a complete PR nightmare

[linguesta]

Morning joe is really biased on the coverage of this issue. They need to bring experts from both perspective. The reason Middle Eastern countries are refusing to take in refugees are 1) the learned from the 1st nakba. Where Palestinians are not allowed to go back. 2) egypt is in a large economic crisis. It honestly can't even support its own citizen. 3) Middle East also trying to manage their extremist groups. They dont want to even have a probability of being forced into war with israel. Need to highly stress israel wants the land, once Palestinians leaves they wont be allowed to come back.

Let their own people help them if they care soooo much.

[JasonDrvmz]

No we absolutely should NOT!!! Why can’t other nations in the Middle East take them in?

[Paul-lmgv]

WHY? The rest of the Arab world doesn't want them! Jordan, Egypt etc.!

[elaineisabelle]

It's not our problem and don't try and make it, we have enough going on.

[LibertyAndJusticeAll]

Is this part of the ethnic cleansing plan against the Palestinians?

Does he sound a bit like Arnold Schwarzenegger?

Save 🇺🇸 stop funding 🇮🇱

[ronaldcole]

I'm one Democrat that supports halting all immigration for at least 10 years. Seriously.

[BayouAnime]

This is insane the media won’t even push back! 😂🤣🤣

[elaineisabelle]

Sorry but no thx, they don't play well with others and you don't know who the extremists are.

[debbie]

Why don’t the Muslim nation’s first, then we can talk? (Think THEY know something YOU don’t, or DONT want to discuss).

[susanmartin]

No that's completely nuts
Their own people won't take them

[d.b.]

Send the Gaza residents to Iran or Egypt.

[cynthiamarie]

Arab countries have been supporting hamas all these years -overtly and covertly. Yet they couldn't care less about Palestinians who are also terrorized by hamas.

[joem]

Yes, and every staff member at msnbc should take a few in.

[eliassalcedo]

Countries don't want to invite what they consider terrorist to their country.

[ChrisBruhn]

absolutely not, thats inviting hamas into the U.S.

[malissakpadeh]

Why should anyone help Israel clean up the mess they started and perpetuated? Doing so would be doubly insulting especially when Israel has been trying to remove Palestinians from THEIR land for decades.

[xcharlesbronsonx]

We displace them...
You house them!
What sick logic
