I will ask though, on the suggestion to leave ... let's assume they were willing to do that. Leave and go where?

The West: we don’t understand where all these refugees are coming from. Build walls to keep them out and weaken the human rights legislation we don’t like to make sure they can’t come here.

Also the West: if the 2 million Palestinians don’t like living in poverty, squalor and under constant risk of death due to the actions of their “leadership” they should just leave.

I don’t have any solutions either other than feel tremendous sadness and a fair bit of anger at the part my country of birth played in this absolute shitshow of a situation… but I also really don’t understand this point of view.
