The Treachery of Gazan Day Laborers
The repayment of evil for good.

28 Nov 2023 ~~ By Hugh Fitzgerald
In order to help people in Gaza, where unemployment is high, the Israeli government has in recent years allowed thousands of Gazans to work in Israel as day laborers, where they earn salaries that are three to five times what they can earn in Gaza itself. This past year, the number of Gazans receiving Israeli work permits rose to 20,000; in Judea and Samaria, the number of permits for Palestinians increased to 100,000. What Israel has now discovered is that many of those Gazan workers collected intelligence on Israel and provided it to Hamas. More on this repayment of evil for good can be found here: āThe Gaza laborersā role in the October 7 massacre,ā by Rafael Medoff, Israel National News, November 19, 2023.

Now it turns out that the security risk was much greater than anybody imagined.
The Washington Post reported November 12 that the reason the Hamas terrorists were so well versed in the access points, layout, and other aspects of the Israeli towns they invaded is because they had ācompiled information from Gazan day laborers, who were allowed to enter Israel every day to work.ā The Post cited as its sources for this fact āintelligence officials from multiple countries.ā
~Snip~
It was the State Department that urged Israel to free murderers such as Abu-Moussa Atiya as a āconfidence-buildingā measure. But whose āconfidenceā was being built? Certainly not that of Israel, whose trust in the Gazans had been shaken by the many murders of its own citizens, including that of Isaac Rotenberg. And not the āconfidenceā of Gazans, who are always delighted to get back some of their own murderers, but have no more āconfidenceā in Israel than they had before, and even if they did, so what? Their āconfidenceā would only be in their ability to hornswoggle the Americans into pressuring Israel to free murderers, as they did with Abu Moussa Atiya. The relations between Jihadis and their intended victims have nothing to do with ābuilding confidence.ā Neither Hamas, nor any other terrorist group, will be in the least bit more favorably-inclined toward āthe Jews,ā no matter how many Arab prisoners the Israelis set free.
Commentary:
Neither Jordan nor Egypt want the Gazans in their countries. In the past , the Palestinians have attempted to overthrow their governments. The Arabs have a very clear understanding of the culture, and mindset, and donāt have any desire to allow it in. Very wise of them.
No one seems to look at the deeper reasons for this and any other war. Why is Gaza poor? Why are the poorest nations of the world Muslim? Their social structure attacks fundamental human rights and consequently sets family members at odds with each other. A husband who views his wife as a slave instead of a partner sets her and often his children against him. He looks for companionship outside of the family. How do they hold it together? By hating others more. Envy and hate.
Similarly, In the US, increased crime, rape, prostitution and DUI deaths are among the hidden costs of cheap illegal laborers.
