No Nation Wants the Gazans

 San Diego Jewish World 

 . . ."The thousands of Gazan fighters and “civilians” tearing into Israeli communities across the border stealing, raping, and killing convinced all (except the few die-hard, Marxist Israelis) that a Palestinian state next to Israel is the worst idea." . . .

"KFAR SABA, Israel — The Jerusalem Post has editorialized “Those who have called for ceasefires, who have demanded negotiations with Hamas, must now ask themselves: How do you negotiate with monsters? How do you make peace with those who murder babies and celebrate their deaths? Hamas-supporting parents and their children stood by in Gaza, watching the spectacle of Israeli children’s bodies being paraded around.”

"The editorial continued: “What kind of society allows such evil to flourish? Israel must respond with the full force of its power. This is no longer just about retrieving hostages; this is about eradicating a force of pure evil. There is no justification, no rationalization, and no compromise to be made with those who revel in the suffering of innocents.”

"Israel’s war with Hamas and Gaza is far from over. Similar Israeli fighting against terrorists is ongoing in Lebanon and in Judea & Samaria (aka West Bank). But Gaza is much worse, because many Israeli captives are still held there by Hamas. Israel’s hands are somewhat tied because: a) Hamas will never give up all the hostages, who are their main protection; b) extensive bombing may inadvertently kill hostages; c) the ‘world’ blames Israel for destroying Gaza and puts roadblocks in front of the Israeli government, handicapping IDF actions.

"During this period, intensive negotiations are going on among Israel, the US, and significant Arab countries to plan the next few decades in Gaza. Hamas is still the most powerful force there, defending itself against Israel’s war aim of ousting it from power. Up to and including the present, the Palestinian Arabs in Gaza have been prevented from escaping the war zone, except for some thousands who successfully bribed their way over the border with Egypt. (This reminds one of East Germany, where citizens were also prevented from leaving the country.)

"Egypt won’t allow the Gazans into the relatively huge, sparsely populated Sinai Peninsula, because Egypt doesn’t want additional terrorists in the Sinai, which already has many hyper-jihadist fighters. Nor does Jordan want them, because its population is already about 3/4 Palestinian Arabs, who are cousins of the Gazans. The shaky Hashemite dynasty fears more Palestinian Arabs entering Jordan would cause its ouster. Without continuous American and Israeli support, King Abdullah would already be mimicking Syria’s Bashar al-Assad, living the ‘good life’ in exile with treasure stolen from his former subjects. Many Arab nations have expelled Palestinian Arabs from their countries. See Note 1 below.

"Israel wants no connection to the Gazans and has every right to refuse partnering with them, or with the Palestinian Authority in the Jewish homeland of Judea & Samaria. The ‘sacred’ 2-state solution is dead and buried as far as even leftist Israelis are concerned. Not only that – 70% of Gazans want to destroy Israel and murder the Jews, not rebuild their ruined statelet. If there ever was significant approval of “two states living side by side in peace,” current events have extinguished it. See: https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-840517" . . .
