From what little contact I have had with Palestinians in the United States, they can be entrepreneurial, hard-working, and decent enough people to be around.
Of course, these are generally Palestinians with the wit to leave the hellholes that the Palestinian leadership has created, and are also in jobs where a middle- to upper-middle-class guy like me is likely to meet them. So they are probably not representative.
But still, I can think of no inherent reason why, other than culture, that Palestinians in the Middle East are such a poisonously dangerous population, but there is not one Arab country that wants anything to do with them, and for good reasons. They destroy every place where they congregate.
Ask the Jordanians. The Lebanese. The Egyptians. The Palestinian “refugees” from the war have all wound up in European countries too stupid to defend themselves against any threat. They are stupid enough to take in Syrians, Pakistanis, and Afghans as well, and have lived to regret it.
Since the West Bank and Gaza are terrible places to do any business, largely because the “governing” bodies are horrifically corrupt and only interested in graft and jihad, Palestinians get work in Israel. Or did, until October 7th, when many of the people welcomed into Israel to work turned out to have been spies who helped develop the intelligence necessary to commit the atrocities of that day.
Israel’s ban on Palestinian workers has left families hungry and parents unable to pay for their children’s school fees. Still, the ban is being justified in the name of security, and shows no signs of abating.https://t.co/s8n7Kz5bhP

Israel has always had this problem. On the one hand, they want the Palestinians in the formerly occupied territories to become more prosperous and less inclined to genocidal fantasies, and on the other hand, Palestinians as a group want to have their cake and eat it too.
They want to live well, and thus need to work outside the crapholes created by their leaders, but on the other hand, they are bloodthirsty and want to kill Jews.
After October 7th, Israel cut off access to the country for Palestinians, and now we are supposed to cry for the Palestinians who lost their jobs and blame Israel for not being interested in seeing its citizens raped, murdered, or blown up.
Palestinians *shocked* that job offers are scarce in the country they just invaded, murdered and raped 1200 people , and took another 200 people hostage.
Not surprisingly, Israelis have decided they’d rather employ Thai, Chinese and Indians instead.🤷♂️

From the perspective of Western elites, the role of Jews is to provide aid and succor to their sworn enemies, and have the decency to die when they are told.
Western Europeans are the worst of the lot, and transnationalists in America are about as bad. And after the massive propaganda campaign that has successfully labeled the Gaza war as a “genocide,” many ordinary Americans sympathize with the bloodthirsty Palestinians as well.
School fees? Hamas is charging them fees for the UNRWA schools that are financed by EU, US- and Arab donations like no other school in the world?

When The New Yorker leads with a phrase like “justified in the name of security,” they are trying to say that the real cause is racism or prejudice, as if the fear of Palestinian terror is irrational.
That is absurd, of course. As many people have noted, proportionally the October 7th massacre was far more deadly than 9/11, so of course it has scarred the Israeli psyche. And, unlike the United States, Israel has lived with Palestinian terror for its entire existence as a country. To this day, its citizens contend with rocket attacks essentially daily.
The transnational elite-types are indifferent to that, of course. As we have seen over the past year or two, even New Yorkers have embraced Islamists in the name of “diversity,” and elected as Mayor a man who campaigned with an unindicted co-conspirator with the World Trade Center bombers, and speaks at mosques where they pray for “Death to America.”
Gad Saad calls the impulse to defend people who declare themselves enemies of our civilization “suicidal empathy,” and surely there is much truth in that diagnosis. But I think that only captures one variable; many supporters of Palestinians quite consciously want our civilization to fall. They approve of the violence as it is a necessary component to their larger agenda.
The AWFLs may be besotted with “empathy,” but the Bolsheviks just want to destroy what they hate.
