[…] BBC World Service has seen documents showing that organisations with close ties to the Israeli government have provided money and land used to establish new illegal outposts.

`“Whenever you put outposts illegally in the area, it brings tensions with the Palestinians… living in the same area,” he says. One of the extremist settlers sanctioned by the UK was Moshe Sharvit - the man Ayesha says threatened her at gunpoint. Both he and the outpost he set up less than 800m (0.5miles) from Ayesha’s home, were also sanctioned by the US government in March. His outpost was described as a “base from which he perpetrates violence against Palestinians”. “He’s made our life hell,” Ayesha says, who must now live with her son in a town close to Nablus.

I’m sure this will be an unpopular take, and I know this is their home, but if I were a Palestinian right now, I would honestly be all about someone helping me relocate far far away from Israel.
If I was a Palestinian right now, I would want to fight the people taking my home and killing my family.
And people wonder why they join or support Hamas.
Many of them are. I don’t think they’re doing too well.
i dont think it works like that, they dont get to leave they just no longer have a home.
I know, but I wish it did work like that.
If you’re going to wish for something, how about wishing Israel would stop genociding?
“I wish Israel would just commit ethnic cleansing instead of genocide”
No, I wish the Palestinians would survive, rather than being wiped out by Israel.
“helping” seems like an odd word to use for “threatened at gunpoint”.
Your statement is not ignorant of the the current situation but also similar to the “if I am Jew, I will relocate to another country” during the Nazi regime.
I’m sure Himmler said the same.
I think you’re making a valid point about fleeing persecution, which is a perfectly rational decision for one’s self-preservation, but the keyboard warriors will downvote you because it sounds like you’re advocating for relinquishing Palestinian lands to Israel.
If leaving to be relocated somewhere else isn’t relinquishing your lands, then what is it? Do yo think the Israeli government will hold the place for the Palestinians that may eventually want to return? Also, no one wants the Palestinians, they are some of the poorest people on Earth and don’t have fancy second passports like most Israelis.
Yep.
I’ve started several replies and then given up because I don’t have the energy to explain the subtleties of what I am suggesting.
