Q wrote "they face dispersal to unfamiliar lands"
Much of Canada was settled by refugees of some type. They have prospered here and produced generations of very valued citizens whom we would be much the worse of without. In Gaza there are still refugees living in camps after 60 years with descendants of five or more generations.
Why does the world refuse to absorb them? Would the culture of neighbouring Arab lands be that unfamiliar? I offer no excuse for Isreal but the actions of other countries refusing to help these poor souls should be viewed with contempt as well.
Enough blame and hate! It's time to find a solution and overthrowing Isreal has no potential in these peoples lifetime!
