Israel/Palestine
In reply to the discussion: Huh, that sounds a lot like "from the river to the sea". [View all]lapucelle
(20,318 posts)The fact Egypt and Jordan are unwilling to take in Palestinians is nothing like the situation with Jews at the end of WWII. Both countries fear that the remnants of Hamas will destabilize their own countries and drag them into a war with Israel if Hamas reestablishes and starts launching attacks from within their borders (see Lebanon).
No country unwilling to take Jewish refugees at the end of WWII was concerned that they would get dragged into further wars due to Jewish terrorist attacks against other countries from within their borders.
As for any argument that Palestinians emigrating from Gaza and the West Bank into Egypt and Jordan was "always Israel's plan", that's patently ridiculous. Neither country has been willing to take in Palestinians for many years, and it certainly wasn't anyone's "plan" on October 6, 2023.
