The international community often directs its outrage at Israel regarding the Palestinians, while Arab nations receive no scrutiny for their roles in ignoring the plight of Palestinians.
For instance, Egypt closed and fortified its border with Gaza on the very day the conflict erupted.
Three examples highlight the debilitating effects of housing Palestinian refugees inside countries. Kuwait had 400,000 Palestinians who supported Saddam Hussein during the Iraqi invasion. Similarly, Jordan, which hosted 1 million Palestinians, faced a violent coup from the Palestinian terrorist group Black September, leading to the assassination of its prime minister.
After being expelled from Jordan, Palestinian leaders relocated to Lebanon, where their terror activities exacerbated tensions and ignited a brutal 15-year civil war between Lebanese Christians and Muslims.
