ZIONIST ORGANIZATION OF AMERICA IN THE MEDIA     Let the People Go! Gazans, desperate to relocate, represent less than one percent of recent global immigrations. Help them. In the past 80 years we have seen multiple population exchanges involving millions of people. There is ample room for all Gazans who prefer to join the hundreds of thousands of Gazans who have already escaped from Hamas since the violent Hamas coup of 2007. By Dr. Michael L. Wise (April 5, 2024) My grandson has been serving in Gaza since day one. When he had cell phone access, he told me that he saw many people walking south and east. Then he said, “Zeide (Grandpa) Mike. If these people go back up north there will be another war in just a few years.” How true. Israel must finally win a war. Peaceful Gazans who are desperate to relocate should be assisted to find homes in new host countries. All Hamas and all Hamas supporters must be removed from Gaza. Who are these Hamas supporters? Until recently, Palestinian Arabs poll themselves every three months and ask people in Gaza and the ‘West Bank’ whether they are in favor of killing Jewish civilians inside of Israel. From 2001 to 2005, when Israel still controlled Gaza, 62% of Gaza’s adult population were in favor of killing Jewish civilians. That percentage increased to 65% of after Hamas took over Gaza in 2007 and all the Jews had been removed from the Gaza Strip by Israel. Unfortunately, the World ignores these facts and does not want to allow Israel to enter Rafah in southern Gaza and complete the destruction of an armed Hamas. The World is desperately trying to force a Gaza ceasefire to save Hamas. The World is going through gymnastics trying to decide who will initially govern Gaza after Hamas is vanquished and to force Israel to put its security in the hands of unreliable third parties. Will it be a group of select Arab countries from Saudi Arabia and the UAE and Qatar? Or will it be the Egyptians who occupied Gaza from 1949-1967? Or will it be Turkey and the Old Ottoman Empire that occupied Gaza from 1517-1917? Or will it the remnants of UNIFIL that was to guarantee peace in southern Lebanon? Or will it be the “Pay for Slay” Palestinian Authority with 74 Hamas members in its 132-member parliament? Remarkably, the World is once again scheming to force a two-state solution combining Gaza and the ‘West Bank’ in spite of the fact that the Arabs have rejected for 100 years the existence of any Jewish state. The Arabs rejected the 1922 Palestine Mandate calling for a Jewish National Home, the Peel Commission in 1937, the UN partition Plan in 1947, and multiple attempts by the US and the UN and the EU to implement two-state solutions contrary to the PLO and Hamas Charters. The creation of a contiguous Palestinian state as the outcome to the October 7 Massacre is a guaranteed formula for ongoing violence and consequences too ominous to describe. The answer is None of the Above. The World has lost the opportunity to rehabilitate the population of Gaza. Gaza has been a source and base for unbroken terrorism for the past 100 years. Gaza can never again be allowed to attack a peace-loving Israel with fedayeen murderers and rockets. Fortunately, there is a solution for those Gazans who have been oppressed by Hamas and other terrorist organizations. In the past 80 years we have seen multiple population exchanges involving millions of people. There is ample room for all Gazans that prefer to join the hundreds of thousands of Gazans who have already escaped from Hamas since the violent Hamas coup of 2007. People saw dozens of Fatah supporters thrown from the roofs of buildings and understood that living under Hamas rule would be insufferable. Most of the people who escaped were young people who understood that even though Egypt would not accept them, bribes to Egyptian and Hamas border guards would let them escape to Turkey on the way to other homes. In our demographic analysis we were able to document even before 2007, a minimum of 11,000 escapees per year. Since the Hamas coup, it is not possible to document the number of escapees, but the evidence indicates that a multiple of that number may have annually succeeded in escaping. It is easy to calculate that the current true number of Gazans is significantly less than 1.7 million and probably no more than 1.45 million. This compares with the inflated 2.3 million claims of Hamas and Palestinian Authorities. Even UNRWA’s claim of 2.1 million acknowledges that there are 200,000 missing Gazans. UNRWA’s 2.1 million includes what they claim are 1.7 million refugees of whom 1.467 million are officially on their lists.   CONTINUE READING     DONATE     Share This Email Share This Email Copyright © Zionist Organization of America 2024, All rights reserved.
