It is fundamentally impossible for Gazans to relocate in the numbers required to avoid mass death. Remainder that this was one of the most populated areas in the world with at least 2 million people in 2024. None of their neighbors want ANY refugees and will not accept 2M individually or as a group and it would remain a humanitarian crisis in which many would die even if they were welcomed with open arms.
There is only 2 choices. Cessation of hostility and genocide.
You know calling it "relocation" because sending them to the grave is technically correct doesn't make the genocide any better.
Aka, Israeli Government minister admits genocide has been their goal.
Edit: Also what a desperate attempt to sound as if they were like the U.S. or the U.K. in those scenarios. They are in the position of Nazi Germany. They were the ones expanding their borders and stripping the rights from the peoples/semites in the area who they considered themselves better than. Not to mention, both Germany's and Japan's lands weren't taken and inhabitated and the U.S./U.K. did assist in finding a path that they could rebuild. Japan isn't a majority Americans, nor is Germany majority English/French/Etc.
Edit 2: so for the U.S. a better example would be what we/they did to the Native Americans, For the U.K. that's hard to say.. maybe Britains treatment of Ireland. But.... As history has proven, Ireland survived and has their land and population still.
- There is still disputed land: Northern Ireland.
  Ireland has seen where this goes and it is likely why they are one of the European countries most critical of Israel. Ireland recognizes genocide and colonialism and lies at the state level.
  The Republic of Ireland have up all claims to northern Ireland as part of the peace process. All terrorists were given amnesty on both sides. If it's in their interest to keep fighting to stay out of jailz they will.
  It is a fine line between punishing war crimes and crimes against humanity, and allowing everyone to move forwards. Israe and paesinel are far from there.
I'm starting to think Israel isn't interested in a two state solution.
- Netanyahu said a few days ago that a Palestinian state was a threat to Israeli security. And, you know, the Israeli right explicitly campaigns on not accepting a two-state solution. I know you're being facetious, but it needs to be made perfectly clear that this genocide is not a fluke.
- and it looks like they are looking to kill off the Palestinians.
- They had past a law last year never to accept it.
  But the whole Oslo process and past 30 years were a lie already as Israel has expanded its ethnic cleansing and settlements ever since. This also isnt an issue of the "far right". The settlements and ethnic cleansings continued as much under "social democratic" governments. Zionism is a fascist ideology of ethnic cleansing and extermination and it is shared by all relevant Israeli parties. There is no Zionist left. They are fascists with token LGBT rights.
  
  It´s interesting you mention Oslo in this regard. Hamas´ sabotage of Oslo brought Netanyahu to power, burying a two state solution once and for all.
  Oslo wasn´t a lie for Rabin, Peres or the 50+% of Israelis supporting them. But Palestinian fascists managed to force the trolley onto the other track.
And Kamala still hasn't done anything about it!!!1!
