Gaza is not only a problem for the Israelis but for much of the world as well. It is a telling fact that no Arab states have opened their doors to Gazan refugees, recognizing as did Jordan in 1970 during the Black September movement that the Palestinians were a destabilizing force. Jordan expelled the cohort to Lebanon where it has since effectively destroyed the country. The surrounding Arab states are no fools and want nothing to do with Gaza. To counter their indifference, the ever-credulous West has taken up the slack out of “compassion” or political calculation — more grateful voters.
