    I am always curious, why does Egypt not want to help Palestinian refugees? Or even allow then to travel through?

      Good question. The official position is that they would not be able to go back to gaza once the war ended. And therefore they would be helping israel in displacing the palestinian people of their lands.

      Plus, i suspect no one really wants 2M “permanent” refugees. On election season no less.

      Because then in 5 years israel would start attacking and creating “buffer zones” within Egypt until Egypt ceases to exist.

      Israel is like the Nazi’s in every single way. They want to keep expanding their lebensraum and genocide everyone who isn’t of their race.

      Deplacing the Palestinians would only worsen the problem because they are not the problem, israel is.
