They Know Better.<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"isPasted\">When Israel began conducting airstrikes in Gaza, everyone knew there was going to be displacement. The military operation comes after Hamas invaded Israel on October 7, murdering 1,200-1,400 civilians in a coordinated assault involving well over 1,000 terrorists. The level of barbarity was unprecedented, leading to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu forming a unity government that aims to destroy Hamas. On October 28, the ground invasion began, leading to scores of Palestinians attempting to make their way south to safety. Hamas shot some who tried to flee.<\/p>\n<p>As the Left rages against Israel, hurling antisemitic slurs and chanting for more Jews to die, some might want to consider why the civilians have nowhere to go. Okay, maybe these folks do know but don\u2019t care, but liberals are historically illiterate, so who knows? It goes beyond geography.<strong> The Palestinians bring trouble and have a long, sordid history of fomenting mayhem and terrorism in other Arab nations.<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Why won\u2019t Egypt and Jordan take refugees from Gaza?<\/p>\n<p>Arabs know their history better than the anti-Israel protesters marching in universities.<\/p>\n<p>Those students know nothing about what Palestinian migrants did in Kuwait, Jordan or Lebanon<\/p>\n<p>Share this &amp; some of them might find out! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/xV852fnsDh\">pic.twitter.com\/xV852fnsDh<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Visegr\u00e1d 24 (@visegrad24) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/visegrad24\/status\/1725842440295166376?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 18, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Egypt is the logical destination for these Palestinians, but Cairo doesn\u2019t want them, and for good reason: terrorism.

But instead it is demanding that they remain. The terror group intends to use its own people and the hostages it abducted from Israel as human shields. Their hope is that either Israeli concern about causing collateral damage or global opprobrium will force Israel to scale back its counter-invasion.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\"><strong>Egypt is the only place to which Gaza\u2019s civilians can flee for now. Yet Cairo insists on maintaining its strict quota for entries from Gaza via the Rafah crossing\u2014with only 800 able to leave on Monday, and the crossing reportedly closed in recent days.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\"><strong>Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Al Sisi bears no warm feelings toward Hamas, which is allied with the Muslim Brotherhood that tried to impose an Islamist regime in his country not too long ago. He\u2019s concerned that Hamas terrorists might slip across the border into Egypt with a tide of civilians.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\"><strong>One way to reduce that possibility would be to house refugees in camps while they\u2019re vetted for Hamas ties. The rest of the world should support a United Nations effort to help. But taking on this practical and financial burden is a risk Mr. Sisi may not want to take two months before Egypt holds what pass for elections there.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\"><strong>The timing is bad for Mr. Sisi, but unless he budges Egypt will become partly responsible for what could become a terrible humanitarian crisis\u2014and that\u2019s if Israel succeeds in rooting out Hamas. If Hamas\u2019s strategy succeeds and Israel is forced by international pressure to scale back its defensive operations, Egypt will have to live with an entrenched and emboldened Hamas on the other side of the Rafah crossing.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If Hamas and the Palestinians aren\u2019t freely moving into Egypt, they\u2019ll be okay with it. Also, Israel has resisted ceasefires and has continued to chip away at the terror group\u2019s infrastructure in Gaza, but a humanitarian crisis could still emerge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>As the tweet above mentioned, the Palestinians tried to take over Jordan in the 1970s, leading to the late King Hussein declaring war on them and driving them out.
