OPINION:
Palestinians are raised from birth to kill Jews (“Real problem with the Palestinians: Nobody wants them,” Web, Feb. 26). They inflict their terror upon Israelis through the military terrorist organization known as Hamas. Do not believe for one moment that Hamas does not have the full support of the Palestinian people.
One only has to view the videos of so-called Palestinians celebrating by the thousands after 9/11 and the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre. The United Nations has spent hundreds of billions of dollars supporting these people, and most of that money ended up in a vast network of tunnels used by Hamas to attack Israel. In 2005, Israel even gave Gaza to the Palestinians and executed a forced eviction of Israeli “settlers” from that land to accommodate them. You can see for yourself the result of those concessions.
Nothing the world can do will satisfy the Palestinians, short of the annihilation of Israel and the extermination of all Jews. President Trump has hit upon the only humane, correct path to end this problem: Remove the Palestinians from Gaza, which must be part of Israel and under the control of the Israeli government.
However, Arab states won’t take the Palestinians, and for good reasons: They are a violent people, thanks to generations of indoctrination. Jordan’s King Abdullah I was assassinated by a Palestinian. And in 1970, the Black September conflict broke out between the Jordanian armed forces and the Palestinian Liberation Organization.
So far, the world has looked for the wrong place to put these people. The solution is that Iran be forced to take them. After all, Iran has treated Palestinians as their soldiers of terrorism for decades. Now it can absorb the problem it created.
