Vice President Kamala Harris said in a meeting Saturday with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi that Washington will not allow for the forced relocation of Palestinians or any redrawing of the current border of the Gaza Strip.

“Under no circumstances will the United States permit the forced relocation of Palestinians from Gaza or the West Bank, the besiegement of Gaza, or the redrawing of the borders of Gaza,” Harris said, according to a statement from the vice president’s office.

    The Arab world has already taken millions of Palestinians.

    Pretty sure those countries doesn’t want yet more for:

    • the same reason no country wants a higher per capita percentage of refugees these days and

    • because they don’t want to give Israel and the US excuses to drone bomb them looking for HAMAS terrorists and

    • countries on the border with Israel don’t want it to have a reason for coming over their borders all the time, because that would likely end in border redrawings
