those cowards, hiding inside, uh...the entirety of their own country

And they had no way out. I was talking to some complete fool the other day who said that Gazans should just flee on rafts like African migrants do. As if Israel wouldn't blow them out of the fucking water with their navy.

Also, Egypt is not getting enough blame for not letting Gazans out through their border. They need to. That makes them a partner in this genocide even if they're not an active partner.

I get it though. Israel has in the past expelled Palestinians and not allowed them to return leaving them stateless wherever they took shelter. Egypt doesn't want a million people to suddenly become their problem permanently.
