Why doesn’t Egypt open the border?
Because Israel will never let them back in if they leave. That is not hypothetical; it happened to thousands of Palestinians during the 6-day war, and their families are still stuck in Egypt, Syria, and Lebanon today.
It’s also because Hamas has its origins in the Muslim Brotherhood which for obvious reasons means that Egypt is very leery of accepting Palestinians from Gaza.
I’m not defending their position, just explaining it; Egypt is basically a military dictatorship at this point and the Muslim Brotherhood is enemy number one for them.
Why doesn’t Israel stop doing things that require other countries to intervene
They don’t want them either.
All the Arab world may be united in it’s hatred of Israel, but that doesn’t mean they like each other…
Israel occupies that border too https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philadelphi_Route
Why do you think a Levantine Trail of Tears is an acceptable solution rather than ethnic cleansing?
