    No, what I’m arguing in favor of is doing something we actually we actually have the power to do. Of course Palestinians who want to leave should be able to do so, but unless you’re suggesting that we should send a massive convoy of boats to pick up hundreds of thousands of fleeing Palestinians, we have no power to help them get to safety. Even if we could force Egypt to to accept refugees, we would have to get Israel to open the Rafah Crossing which would take as much time as it would to get them to stop bombing entirely.
