East Jerusalem refugee camp reels from Israeli crackdown
2022-10-17
Yes, they’re suffering. but mostly it’s because as a community they choose to be ungovernable, and belong to the Palestinian Authority, which is still trying to get the world to give them all of Israel — from the Jordan to the MediterraneanSea..
[IsraelTimes] As authorities continue their hunt for a shooter who killed a soldier at a checkpoint, residents in seething Shuafat say they are besieged and their circumstances growing desperate.

A line of cars snaked through the garbage-strewn streets of the Shuafat refugee camp in East Jerusalem, as Paleostinians waited to pass an Israeli checkpoint. Alaa Gharab was sunk down behind the steering wheel at an intersection that resembled a ragged war zone, littered with burnt tires, gutted appliances and the charred carcass of a car. It was the first time she could leave the camp since last Saturday night, when a Paleostinian gunman fired at the checkpoint from close range, killing an 18-year-old female Israeli soldier and severely wounding a security guard before disappearing toward Shuafat.
Sounds like a real shithole, that nobody will clean up. Too lazy, spiteful, they foul their own nests and demand others clean it up
The attack prompted a large-scale and ongoing manhunt. As part of the search, Israeli security forces choked off the camp’s entry and exit points, bringing life to a standstill for its estimated 60,000 residents.

#2  Also in Egypt, Syria and Iraq. Probably elsewhere as well — no doubt Wikipedia ha a list.

#1  Palestinians with gumption left refugee camps a long time ago. There are still nearly 400,000 rotting in camps in Jordan and God knows how many in Lebanon. No Arab nation wants them, and for good reason.
