Lol not a chance. I have yet to speak to an Egyptian in the last 3 weeks now that has been willing to take on Palestinian refugees in Sinai. They are wholeheartedly ready to defend their country from anyone, refugee or its oppressor.
There’s a few facets as to why they are ready.
- They want to defend their country
Cairo is overpopulated as it’s stands with some 22 million in place. Hands down the worst traffic I’ve ever experienced in my life. Throw 2 million displaced Gazans from Sinai into the mix and that’s way more mouths to feed. Clusterfuck.
- They don’t want to be in this war … again
Egypt & Israel have done this dance before. I posted in this thread a link to a great film on Marwan Ashraf on Netflix right now that I suggest folks watch to get a glimpse of what happened in 1973.
Displaced Gazans in Sinai means this war will continue from Sinai and Egypt will be forced to once again, protect their land from Israel or lose it. This is why the PM Sisi said “we can’t have Gazans in Sinai.”
It wasn’t two weeks ago, an Egyptian official told the whole of Europe to “take 1 million displaced Gazans of their so concerned with human rights.”
Egypt official tells Europe to take in 1m Gazans if ‘you care about human rights so much’
A senior Egyptian official has reportedly mockingly demanded that Europe take in one million Gazan refugees if it cares “about human rights so much”, as Cairo continues to grow ever more frustrated…www.middleeastmonitor.com
Long story short, there’s plenty of reasons why they won’t take refugees but most of it lies on the fact that they just don’t want more issues in their country.
Yeah long story short, Gazans in Sinai means battles against Israel in the future.
