Perhaps if Europe claims to care about human rights so much, they should simply stop funding, supporting or otherwise enabling a genocidal state?

Sorry fam, best we can do is let Israel into Eurovision.

You mean Hamas, right?

[-] Gerula@lemmy.world 55 points 11 months ago

So, all those more or less rich mulsim countries in the area they better spent billions on stupid megalomaniac construction projects in the desert, on weapons production and war mongering but they can't take in as refugees the very people they are encouraging and arming to fight. And all of that because Israel is wrong in what they are doing. Did I miss anything?

[-] zerfuffle@lemmy.ml 11 points 11 months ago

Do you understand the sheer scale of a million refugees? That these refugees will never be allowed back?

[-] JohnEdwa@sopuli.xyz 3 points 10 months ago

A sixth of the current Ukranian refugees, I believe.

[-] mlg@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Yeah, the fact that their militaries are equally as useless without US bases lol.

Living example: Yemen

Sometimes I wish the USA would leave just so I can watch Iran and KSA kick each other in the crotch, and then get promptly invaded by Yemen.

Allowing Gazans to be made into refugees (again) is participating in the ethnic cleansing of Palestine.

[-] FaizalR@kbin.social 25 points 11 months ago

Israel will be happy if they move.

[-] Krauerking@lemy.lol 37 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Yeah let's not just pretend this is an easy issue. These people can permanently give up their home and and become permanent residents in whatever country they flee to just because Israel would never let them back in.

And 1million is a lot of people to calm down and care for after their houses were bombed to rubble so the crater marked earth could be turned into a night club for tourists to the worlds largest open museum.

Egypt isn't wrong to say this is an impossible choice to make. Especially while no one can punish the bullies. Heck no one can even disagree with the bully anymore. They may be hypocrites but doesn't mean their isn't truth in it.

[-] mlg@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago

this also implies that Egypt, or rather their current government does not care about human rights so much.

I will find every reason to hate on sisi lmao

[-] nooneescapesthelaw@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months ago

I mean.... This is a known fact. This is what tipped these idiots off

[-] Aceticon@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago

There's a lot of Europe in Europe.

The ones that should be taking in refugees are the very same who very openly went to lick Netanyahu's arse in Israel whilst he was having his people kill children by the 1000s in Gaza: Mr Sunak, Monsieur Macron and Herr Scholz.

[-] DigitalTraveler42@lemm.ee 8 points 11 months ago

What a dickhead response, real humanitarian right there.

[-] mkultrawide@hexbear.net 50 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Actually it's the correct response. If Europe thinks Palestinians should leave Gaza that much, they should be willing to shelter a significant number of them, instead of sending them to languish in the Sinai Desert. Europe has more resources to deal with this than Egypt does.

???

[-] explodicle@local106.com 4 points 11 months ago

Did you read the article?

[-] DieguiTux8623@feddit.it -2 points 11 months ago

I would like to see that happen. Wonder what party those refugees will vote after getting citizenship. Unfortunately they won't be enough to make European politics shift an inch.

[-] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 27 points 11 months ago

Wait till you see the euro response

[-] Emanuel@lemmy.eco.br 26 points 11 months ago
[-] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 19 points 11 months ago

And intentionally sinking refugee ships

[-] Emanuel@lemmy.eco.br 5 points 11 months ago

that's the prayers part, silly

[-] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 24 points 11 months ago

A bloc with per Capita GDP of $45k telling a country with a per Capita GDP of $9k that it needs to be more generous in helping refugees is pretty fucking rich.

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago

That old movie clip about "We're sending you to Detroit" but about Europe

[-] yoz@aussie.zone 5 points 11 months ago
[-] Opafi@feddit.de 20 points 11 months ago

That's just a dumb take... Europe took up over for million refugees from Ukraine. Because it's the neighbouring countries that should help first and foremost. Kind of like what Egypt could do now... But instead they're crying that the EU half a continent away should take care of it.

[-] nooneescapesthelaw@lemmy.ml 5 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Egypt already has syrian refugees and subsaharan refugees in addition to the recent influx because of the sudanese civil war.

Either way, the current regime violently overthrew, imprisoned, tortured and eventually killed the democratically elected previous regime which has ties and many many sympathizers in Gaza. Meaning that the cocksucking son of a removed sisi will never let them in, because he's afraid of another revolution

Plus leaked talks from Mubarak (two egyptian presidents ago) literally have bibi pointing at gaza and saying i want to move them elsewhere and pointed at sinai. If Palestinians go to sinai they are never coming home.

Not to mention that ISIS is in sinai....

[-] Catfish@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 11 months ago

They took them because they were white. Not whatever honorable shit they sold you. If Europe was invested in doing the right thing they would take responsibility for all the citizens they displaced.
