Palestinians commited atrocities across the Middle East \n\nEgypt, Tunisia, Jordan, Lebanon to name a few\n\nMe then they wonder why nobody opens their borders to them and they say Israel has them imprisoned from all sides\n\nTheir side thrives on dishonesty

Why is our country not telling the people openly that Mexico and their southern neighbors have declared war on the US?\nWe Vote.\nDEMOCRATS FOR BORDER CONTROL

Well you could argue that Egypt could open the borders for the refugees. \nBut as long the Arab would can play there victim card, there is not a big chance of that.

If they don't want to leave then what's the problem opening the border?

The inaction of our government is enabling these people. \nI am not against legal asylum seeking but what is happening now is illegal and nothing is being done by the authorities. \nCan you believe legal immigration applicants are waiting years in the system because all the attention was shifted to these illegal crossings.\n\nNo country has open borders like this.

What did ppl expect when they voted for Biden??? You wanted open borders, YOU GOT THEM. Idiots.

It’s not the illegal migrants’ fault. It’s the traitors in the WH that have opened the border. Congress must punish this Administration by budgetary measures or it is part of the problem.

open all border gates and let them all in and in 50 years they will be the mayority at any political levels and will vote to change many laws and will hold high political positions and with all their cultures back grounds and in a total of 100 years the position of U.S.A. thru out the world will be at lower level in many ways

Hmm. If you open up the borders and let the Palestinians enter, then you give them a choice. Otherwise, how would you be able to say that the Palestinians do not want to leave their land? If you don't allow them to. I'm sure some would... after all, if they don't want to leave, then why are there Palestinians in non Arab countries?

No Muslim country is doing anything to help them. A number have helped and supported Hamas resulting in recent events. The Palestinians elected Hamas and celebrated the events of Oct 7th. Hamas and Palestine want Israel gone because it is Jewish. \n\nAny number of Muslim countires could open their borders and give the Palestinians temporary refuge - but they refuse. \n\nHamas could face Israel in open combat away from the Palestinians but they won’t. They want them as tv propaganda and collateral damage and human shields.\n\nFact.

That's a nice way to get out of a question. When Russia invaded Europe opened its borders to welcome them while the war was going on. Many have returned. Same can happen here. But no, Arabs don't want Palestinians nowhere close.

How do you know? Open your border let them choice not by you.

yet you dont open the border to those who want to leave...

The borders are closed . By the Arab world ... open borders they escape

pls stop the Grammer and open up your borders

If arab world open borders for their muslim pslestianian friends, i think a lot if them will likely go

The palestinians do want to leave their land but they cant since the border with egypt is closed and no one wants to take them, egypts president A Sisi said it himself... open the border and then we will see what the palestinians really want.

How is everybody missing the false logic that he quietly inserted.\n\nHe states a premise that Palestinians do not want to leave their land. In that case, why not open the border and see if Palestinians come in. If they do not, then his premise is correct, if there’s a mass exodus, then there’s premise was just a way to shift responsibility.\n\nJordan and Egypt occupied the Westbank and Sasa strip from 1948 to 1967 what stopped them from creating Palestine or simulating those countries into theirs? Why was there no prosperity during that period?\n\nThe truth is that the refugees follow the 1948 and the land that was going to be given to the following. The conclusion of demand of Palestine has been in a tug of war between various factions for the last 70 years.

The Palestinians want to leave \nThis is just an excuse to not open borders xd

I do agree with him for a certain degree but I also disagree for a bit. It’s true that it’s better to stop the killing, but at the same time it’s good if governments open their borders to the refugees in Palestine as well.

If you’re so sure that the Palestinians don’t want to leave Gaza, then why don’t you open the borders and let them decide for themselves?

So if Israel stops going after hamas. In a couple years will it start over again? okay so what I would do strategically. Is egypt and other nearby countries should open their borders. Palestines should leave with their children. After Israel wipes out hamas. Then come back. You want a two party democracy right or no? because my understanding was hamas had the overall choice in the election of power. Also are the tunnels for evacuation or for military?

He basically said: they made their bed and now they can lie in it. \n\nThere’s quite a few Palestinians trying to leave and seek refuge in Egypt since they opened their borders to take a limited number of them in.. as long as they’re not associated with Hamas. \n\nHamas brought this war to the Palestinian’s doorstep in Gaza and if other Arab nations don’t want to open their borders to the Palestinians who would like to leave because of the war, then there will be an increased number of civilian casualties. Just because their fellow Arabs refuse to take them as refugees doesn’t mean Israel loses the right to defend itself from the barbaric terrorist attack Hamas launched against them. \nAny other country would have the right to defend itself from terrorists that live at their borders. If Hamas cared about their citizens, they’d have a plan for them and their safety once they initiated this war on Oct 7th. But it seems like Hamas’s only plan for them was to be disposable pawn martyrs caught in between them and Israeli forces. \n\nYou can’t torture, rape and kill 1,400 Israeli citizens/foreign nationals and take 200+ hostages back to Gaza during a depraved terrorist attack and then cry ceasefire when that country declares war and is winning. Especially when you’re still holding onto hostages and not honoring the terms of the first ceasefire by letting the Red Cross see the hostages. \n\nIf these other countries cared about the Palestinians, they’d take any refugees that wanted to leave. They clearly don’t want to do that for some reason. They’re watching from afar with their popcorn, saying “isn’t it terrible what the Israeli’s are doing.. but we won’t let them come here to escape, which would let the Israelis fight this war with Hamas, who initiated it, without civilians in between.” With no mention of how Hamas as put them in the middle and isn’t protecting them. Also no mention of any responsibility Hamas has for bring this war onto them by the large scale terrorist attack, that includes hundreds of civilian hostages of all ages.

They should open the borders for immigrants.

Another way of saying no. Europe did not say no to Ukraine refuges, but Arab nations just sit back and criticize. Egypt and Jordan to name a few could give relief to the situation by opening their borders. But they won’t.

Why not give some the chance to choose leave or stay open the border some will stay and some go.. he is scared

????bravo that man he knows that the Arab world would only be playing into the hands of the Zionists by opening their borders!

Bollocks answer, they don't give a toss about Palestinians being killed, end of. The war is between Israel and Hamas, not Palestine. Removing the innocents from the battlespace will prevent the unnecessary loss of life and bring the conflict to a swifter end. Got to question why neighbouring muslim countries wouldn't open the borders to ease the problem while hamas is removed

Atleast Arab world can open their borders, After that its people choice if they want to leave land or not???

Just open borders and see if Palestinians want to settle in other Arab countries or not. You guys aren’t opening your borders because you knew some of them would be trouble makers for you. West is already facing their nonsense.

that is what happens to open border. I heard Canada is just indians and chineses nowadays

NICE TRY ???.... THE PALESTINIANS ACTUALLY WANTED TO LEAVE, THEY RAN TO THE BORDERS. , MUSLIM COUNTRIES REFUSED TO OPEN THEIR BORDERS FOR THEM...BECAUSE OF TERRORISM, BECAUSE MOST PALESTINIANS WERE RAISED TO HATE.

This guy sounds to entitled help your fellow Muslims escape war there fighting over land who owns no claims it was the Jews long ago taken by the Muslims giving back to the Jews they can’t live together so it’s on them but no entitlement open the borders help your fellow brothers

Because there is an open BORDER policy in US ...

Open the border and those that want to leave can leave. He can't speak for everyone like this.

Let the Egyptian open the 'rafiah' border and any Palestinian will make there own choice. Hippocrates.

The non regional forces dont realise that the moment they open their borders is the moment they declare war. No one wants that

Tell Egypt, Lebanon and Syria to open their borders so aid can get through. Palestine has more than one border.

Jordania dont do nothing for palestine Egipto dont open de borders, Libia not help idem, South Arabia don't wants refugies..... but the fault is the world ???????? dont forced not ,better used, like you been doin for centurys

You did not ANSWER THE QWESTION open your borders ,they will happily go and live on your land

I stopped visiting Canada 40 years ago because of insane or corrupt border control policies. I traveled to Canada from California to record an album for a popular rock star. My crew number 4 people and we had reserves a month for basic tracking in a studio there. We bought our own reels of 3 inch wide recording tape because the studio wanted twice the rate as normal and since my studio was a distributor for the mastering tapes we brought from my own inventory. Each reel of tape was 3 lbs and brought 30 reels. We got to customs and they said we owed money for importing the tape. Normally a reel would have been $180, and customs wanted $38,000 x 20, and would not let us retrieve it to take it back to the US side of the border. How can a tape worth $180 suddenly have duty of $38,000?\nIt was explained to me as the Potential Value of the tape which meant AFTER a hit song was recording in it. Most recordings are total losses and the tape cant used on a new project even if properly bulk-erased. They expected me to pay on the spot $760,000 in duties. I gave up and left the tape with them. I called the artist and said we could not do the project in Canada and we went back to California. The artist came to us a few months later and the result was a minor hit, and probably barely made its production cost since the label only distributed it in Canada. I talked to an international trade lawyer about what happened and he said customs officials were wrong in Canada but they are given full latitude with no appeal so his advice was never take anything over the border that I did not mind being confiscated. Sometimes they would let it in because it was going back out in a month, but likely they sold it off and pocketed the money. The US is corrupt on a federal level but Canada is corrupt on the local level. I moved out of the US 24 years ago have a much higher quality of life than is even possible in the US, and live very cheaply. Total cost of living with a very active social and cultural life impossible to duplicate in the US which as some of the least options for culture. And my cost of living is $1500 a month, less than utilities alone for one house in California, and that is for 2 people. Last month for example I attended world class opera, ballet and symphonies 9 times, and went out to dinner, in jazz clubs or dance clubs, visited12 top museums, and it was still under $1500 for the month. A pair of tickets to the MET in NYC for lower grade performance, sets, orchestra ad theater, was $1800!! $600 for tickets to drama for 2. Here there 237 drama theaters within walking distance of my city center home, and can walk anywhere at any time of day and be safe due to VERY low crime rates. Free medical is good. I am not citizen but still I had an operation and 10 days in a vip single room for $5300 and despite my insurance I had been paying back in California $824.month, it was going to cost me out o pocket $500,000 and one day in a recovery 12 bed room, and require paid nursing attendant for 30 days. The results were great and was treated like king.\nCanadians have lost control of their government but Americas are screwed regardless, with lower than international standards for everything, with crime, corruption in Washington, extreme cost of living, no access to culture, few if any safe parks. My adopted city is not only far more beautiful than any US city, my GF can walk, alone, anywhere in a city of 7mil at any time of day through any of the 600 beautiful parks open 24/7..at 3am. There are no homeless, and 80% of those over 20yo own their home clear of debt. No college debt despite twice the % of people having degrees. The rest of the world caught up and has surpassed the US and Europe in quality of life. \n\nI have only been back to the US 5 times in 24 years and each time I am shocked by how much the entire society has declined while most of the world outside of Europe, Canada, US, UK or Australia have dramatically improved.\nEvery year since 2008 more Americans leave the US to live elsewhere than legal immigrants arrive.

????Why don't you give them OPTION to choose leave or stay???!!!! Arab countries must open borders and welcome them, at least women and childrens , up to them to choose to leave or stay , why you decide for them??????

? in other words we don't want them on our lands.\n\nUkrainians also didn't want to leave but Europe had open borders and people opened their hearts and let them in.

These people are hypocrites, so you would rather allow people to die in that war. Open the borders and let see how many Palestinias will remain in the battlefield. I am sure we will see a flood of people rushing to your country to get to Turkey to get to Europe to get to the western countries.

??His answer is sad and funny, why you decide for them??? You open borders for them and welcome them, up to them to choose to stay or leave, the fact is no arab country want them and no arab country open border to them

Rather than to question the war crimes of Israel, the reporter places blame on the arab world for not opening their borders. To add to that, the last time that happened, israel took over those resepctive countries.

Maybe Egypt should open their border then. A ceasefire is a band aid in this conflict. It only gives Hamas time to grow more.

Why didn't he just say his country would open their borders to any Palestinians who voluntarily WANT to leave Palestine?\n\nIt's that simple! \n\nNone of them would be FORCED to leave, sheesh! But notice his subterfuge! The fact is, no one WANTS the Palestinians.
