Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I mean it certainly would help if other countries did take in Palestinian refugees and give them resources and support and citizenship. Doesn’t fix the problem but would help.
Wait what’s that? Israel isn’t letting anyone leave Gaza in the first place and so even if you wanted to leave your homeland behind they won’t let you and will bomb the border checkpoints to make sure you don’t leave? Oh.
Forcing people out into other countries is still textbook genocide
Oh absolutely, not claiming it’s not. But when a genocide is taking place, is it not good for other countries to offer safety to those who want to flee the genocide? Opening the borders and giving Palestinian refugees safety and resources in other countries doesn’t stop the genocide, but it does keep people alive who otherwise wouldn’t be.
there's no easy answer. it would be good in that taking refugees in would help save lives, but bad in that it enables ethnic cleansing.
