Neither Jordan, nor Syria, nor Egypt want Palestinians, but Israel should welcome them? Lol. I think if they were wise, they'd really focused on making a proper state.

What you call Israel is their land where their people lived until European Jews decided to emigrate en masse 100 years ago. There was only 25k Jews in modern day Israel before WW1, then Britain forcefully turned it a "jewish homeland" to get the Rothschilds on their side during the war. Basically typical western disregard for anyone who isn't white.

They shouldn't have to move in with their neighbors.

The past is the past. There are multiple generations of Israeli people that born on that land. Does a Palestinean child whose grand grandfather born there has any more rights to the land than those actually born there? Israel is there, for a fact. If an ultra-radical population that largely wants the eradication of Israel moves in, it’s over for Israel. This is just the way it is.

So what’s your proposal? Israel’s suicide?

Poster didn't say that those countries shouldn't also let Palestinians live there.
