These Refugees Will be Angry Alright! By James Reed
Figures on the death toll vary, but the higher estimate from the pro-Arab news sources via Hamas, puts the casualties at 500 from an alleged Israeli air strike has hit al-Ahli hospital in Gaza City. Reports from both the pro-Arab press and the mainstream media as samples, are below.
That sounds horrific, so what is Israel’s response? That is a bit harder to find on the internet with the plethora of “let’s bring in the refugee’ material, but apparently the Israel Defense Forces has “categorically” denied any involvement in the hospital attack, claiming it was due to a “failed rocket launch” by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group, a rival Islamist militant group in Gaza. If so, these jihad dudes need to brush up on how to launch rockets, as the general idea is to hit a prescribed enemy rather than blow up your own side.
We do not know the truth of this, like much else. But it is clear that the Palestinians will believe that Israel did this. If they are taken in in large numbers to the sucker dopey West, then expect them to be angry, and the inevitable terrorists among them, not all of these people of course, add all the usual caveats, but the terrorists, thousands of them, will seek revenge in the West, and a case has already been made that it is happening: https://summit.news/2023/10/17/as-predicted-its-back/. And the protests now are nothing compared to what might come, making the events of 2015+ in Europe seem peaceful:
All refugees need to be sent to the wealthy Arab nations who support the Palestinians, by opening the crossing into Egypt:

- “An Israeli air strike has hit al-Ahli hospital in Gaza City where thousands of civilians are seeking medical treatment and shelter from relentless attacks.
- Gaza health ministry says at least 500 casualties in hospital blast. A UN-run school housing refugees also struck.
- The attack comes a day before US President Joe Biden will visit Israel and Jordan.
- Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has cancelled planned talks with the US president in Amman after the hospital bombing, two senior Palestinian officials say.
- Some 3,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza since Hamas’s October 7 attack inside Israel, which has killed more than 1,400.
“Palestinian officials say hundreds are likely dead after a deadly blast hit a Gaza hospital on Tuesday, as humanitarian concerns mount over Israel’s deprivation of food, fuel and electricity to the enclave’s population.
Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital was sheltering thousands of displaced people when it was bombed Tuesday, the Palestinian Health Ministry said in a statement. Many victims are still under the rubble, it added.
Palestinian officials blamed ongoing Israeli airstrikes for the lethal incident. But the Israel Defense Forces has “categorically” denied any involvement in the hospital attack, blaming instead a “failed rocket launch” by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group, a rival Islamist militant group in Gaza.
“We did not strike that, and that the intelligence that we have suggests that it was a failed rocket launch by the Islamic Jihad, and I want to add, categorically, that we do not intentionally strike any sensitive facilities, any sensitive facilities, and definitely not hospitals,” Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus told CNN.
Gaza has been under siege by Israel for more than a week, in response to the deadly incursion by Hamas, the Islamist militant group that controls the coastal enclave, home to 2.2 million people. Hospitals meanwhile are struggling to tend to the wounded across the territory, operating with shortages of electricity and water.
Amid growing international pressure to address the crisis, US President Joe Biden will travel to Israel on Wednesday, an extraordinary wartime visit that follows intense efforts by Secretary of State Antony Blinken across the Middle East.”
