The bones of murdered women and children make a solid foundation for a holiday resort.

    Take one of the most violently-contested parts of the Earth, a center of blood feuds that have been raging for, depending on how you count it, between eighty and six thousand years, a place that has become synonymous for "a location of endless conflict," take that piece of real estate, enhance the violence, and then tell yourself you're going to build a bunch of high-end condos and invite rich assholes to move in.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Hmm I'm confused...

    "Voluntary emigration" is widely considered a euphemism for ethnic cleansing, given Palestinians' general unwillingness to leave their homeland.

    But I thought they were refugees, i.e. Gaza ISN'T their homeland. If they are living in their homeland then how are they still refugees?

    One of my friends is a Ukrainian refugee. He isn't living in his homeland and doesn't consider himself British.

    The land now known as Israel, including Gaza and the West Bank, is their homeland. These people are refugees because they were driven out of their homes during the violent formation of Israel in 1948 and many of those who survived ended up in refugee camps in Gaza. Gaza is one small corner of their homeland. Over the course of 70 years or so, these refugee camps became entire cities because these people had nowhere else to live, for generations. So they were refugees in a small corner of the country that was once theirs. Then Israel destroyed even these cities.

    This is what was planned from the beginning. They just had to clear the land and got help with the demolition from the US. Rich people will always be the problem.
