UN envoy: Gaza on verge of 'full collapse'
Arutz Sheva ^ | 31/1/18 | Elad Benari

UN Middle East envoy Nickolay Mladenov warned on Tuesday that Hamas-controlled Gaza on the verge of "full collapse", AFP reported.

According to Mladenov, a key to saving Gaza from disaster was restoring the government of Palestinian Authority (PA) chairman Mahmoud Abbas to power there, a decade after it was forced out by Hamas in a bloody coup. "Without that Gaza risks exploding in our face again, this time in a far more deadly and violent manner than in the past," Mladenov was quoted as having said at the annual conference of Israel's Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv.

Good. It is proof the Palis are incapable of self-government. The West has propped up these animals for decades. I hope they blow each other’s brains out.

Abbas (like his predecessor Arafat) has stolen 90% of all the funds over the years.

So I figure that he personally has over $16 Billion stashed away for his retirement. So he should begin to withdraw from it and feed HIS PEOPLE if he even really cares, rather than using them as props to enrich himself.

“Let Egypt annex it and stomp out Hamas.”

Al Sisi’s signature tactic is getting mass death sentences passed against the Muslim Brotherhood - and he has been clear in identifying Hamas as a part of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Qatar had reps in Washington D.C. today, signing accords that some have interpreted as surrendering to Saudi pressure to cut off support to the Brotherhood.

Hamas could be in for hard times.

There is nothing worse than a collapsing shi*thole. They could always flee to Haiti.

That will take some real expert snipers as the targets are extremely small.

““Let Egypt annex it and stomp out Hamas.””

But Gaza belongs to Israel.

“Gaza was part of the Ottoman Empire, before it was occupied by the United Kingdom (1918–1948), Egypt (1948–1967), and then Israel, which in 1994 granted the Palestinian Authority in Gaza limited self-governance through the Oslo Accords. Since 2007, the Gaza Strip has been de facto governed by Hamas, which claims to represent the Palestinian National Authority and the Palestinian people.”

After the new Saudi king has started cleaning house in Saudi, the next step was to sort out the other Jihad-supporting governments.

Trump appears to be the gift which keeps on giving.

A fair settlement in the Middle East:

Let Egypt take Gaza. Ship the West Bank “Palestinians” to Jordan, but have that land remain with Israel.

Have the Saudis and US both give aid to Jordan for a number of years.

And let the Middle East get on with life.

I foresee a whole bunch of Palestinians trying to emigrate to Europe. Just the men. The women will be held hostage in Gaza, and the men held responsible for sending funds.

“But Gaza belongs to Israel.”

True, but it might be more trouble than it is worth. Since Israel pulled out and gave them autonomy, they make no money on Gaza, but still incur lots of costs. The population is a demographic bomb, that Israel does not want to incorporate and grant voting rights. It is a den of terrorist vipers, and Egypt can go third world on them, whereas Israel is restrained in the tactics that they can use.

The question is whether Egypt can be trusted long term, or if an islamist regime might be back in the future.

I don’t think that Israel should “take it back” unless and until all the Palestinians are removed from the territory or killed. And I really don’t care by which means they are “removed.” As far as I am concerned, their dead bodies would make good fertilizer for the land after “the dust settles!”

Palestinians have had to adapt to thought/speech policing by violent gangs for pretty much their whole lives, and have been subjected to pretty intense and pervasive political indoctrination/agitation as well.

That is what really needs to be corrected - freedom for the Palestinians from their corrupt politicians, and their sponsors.

As far as Arabs go, Palestinians have long been relatively urban and relatively reasonably well educated - viewed as good candidates in the Gulf Countries to serve in mid-level positions like store managers or engineers.

It looks like sponsorship strings are getting cut from long time backers Saudi Arabia and now Qatar. If the ruling gangs collapse, Palestinians could be freed to have and express individual opinions again.

I'm sorry, but the pictures of the Palestinians uvulating when the twin towers fell, it still too fresh in my mind to had a nickels worth of compassion from any of them. Take their very young children and kill the rest of them!

You can also find videos of “Americans” calling for socialism now, killing white people, killing black people, etc.

Good and bad in all kinds. People can change.

They can always eat and drink the carcasses of each other.

I don’t see the problem.
