Egypt prefers dead Palestinians within Gaza over Palestinians living elsewhere and Israel, maybe, controlling the Gaza strip. Al-Sisi, as reported in https://english.alarabiya.net/News/middle-east/2023/10/12/Gazans-must-remain-on-their-land-Egypt-s-Sisi https://english.alarabiya.net/News/middle-east/2023/10/12/Ga...: > But the case of Gazans “is different”, he said, because their displacement would mean “the elimination of the (Palestinian) cause.”

  > If Palestinians leave Gaza to Egypt, then Egypt will be complicit with Israel’s ethnic cleansing of Palestine. But at least it guarantees that there are Palestinians who can seek redress, e.g. at the ICJ. But I suppose when there's the "Palestinian cause", Palestinian lives cease to matter. (let's ignore West Bank for a moment since Al-Sisi and you both did)

  And if they keep the border shut tight, aren't they complicit in Hamas's use of civilians as human shields?

    If they open border they will let the Hamas out of the trap. (Then Cairo could start receiving air deliveries of either hamas bombs or hamas hunter bombs; neither is nice)

    Give me a single reliable source that says Hamas were in hospitals or schools that were bombed. The IDF is a bullshit source btw, they lied and they still lie while burning humanitarian aid. https://x.com/muhammadshehad2/status/1733627762085183877 https://x.com/muhammadshehad2/status/1733627762085183877 To the point Israelis have recognized the truth, it's an apartheid. https://x.com/Robert_Martin72/status/1734436437825839539 https://x.com/Robert_Martin72/status/1734436437825839539

      We shouldn't take any statements from either side of the conflict at face value, but it's not realistic to deny any evidence that arises just because of who produced it. Here's what I think is a pretty reasonable take on that[1]. Here is CNN reporting on a video that shows a guy with an RPG walking around the hospital[2]. FWIW, I agree that the IDF soldiers in the linked tweet should be punished for destroying civilian property/aid without any military purpose. It's good to criticize anybody when they do something wrong, regardless of which side of the conflict you lean towards.
