This op-ed was written by the Israeli Intelligence Minister:

ANOTHER OPTION is to promote the voluntary resettlement of Palestinians in Gaza, for humanitarian reasons, outside of the Strip.

This is an opportunity for those who say they support the Palestinian people to show these are not just empty words.
The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the global UN body that deals with refugees, is mandated by its Statute and the UN General Assembly Resolutions to undertake resettlement as one of its three durable solutions.

Instead of funneling money to rebuild Gaza or to the failed UNRWA, the international community can assist in the costs of resettlement, helping the people of Gaza build new lives in their new host countries.

    “Instead of helping the people of Gaza or rebuilding Gaza, you could use that so-called ‘charity’ for more noble purposes - like ethnic cleansing!”

    Welp. I guess I always knew Israel would go mask off at some point in my life. Just didn’t think it’d be so cartoonish.

      I had to read the original a few times just to confirm. It seemed so shockingly awful I assumed I misread it. What the heck kind of “proposal” is that?!

        What happens when ethnic nationalism receives little to no pushback from the general population. It just gets worse, and worse, and worse.

        Not sure that there’s a bottom it can hit. It just drills.
