      Actually it’s the correct response. If Europe thinks Palestinians should leave Gaza that much, they should be willing to shelter a significant number of them, instead of sending them to languish in the Sinai Desert. Europe has more resources to deal with this than Egypt does.

      A bloc with per Capita GDP of $45k telling a country with a per Capita GDP of $9k that it needs to be more generous in helping refugees is pretty fucking rich.
