When Haitham Abu Daqa’s 5-month-old daughter developed a heart problem that could not be addressed near their home in Gaza, the family sought medical help in Jordan, where she underwent successful open-heart surgery.
After the surgery, Daqa’s wife, who was with their daughter, pleaded with Jordanian officials to be allowed to stay. She feared that little Nevine’s recovery would be at risk in the war-ravaged Palestinian enclave that has few functioning medical facilities. But the officials insisted that the family had to go home.
“How can I take care of the girl while I am living in a tent, and at the same time, the bombing doesn’t stop,” Daqa said, sobbing. “How dare they send her back? If there is treatment in Gaza for her case, why did they take her in the first place?”
The Jordanian King is a puppet for the Colonial powers. He doesn’t want to do anything to upset his Imperial masters like treating Palestinians as human beings
Is not that easy.
Palestinians are not always been just victims. Jordan hosted many of them after one of their wars against Isreal and since they couldn’t come back home, after a while they decided to try take over Jordan who was helping them.
So no surprise they don’t want to deal with them anymore.
Palestinian extremists. Not just Palestinians, but yes the extremists have a history of doing this in every country that took them in.
However realistically that’s probably just an excuse. They just don’t want to have to pay and provide resources to house a bunch of refugees and the first country that agrees to take them in will probably be required to house the majority of them and permanently since Israel probably won’t let them go back.
The extremists don’t help the matter though.
King Hussein was literally put on the throne by the British. He made a secret deal with David Ben Gurion not to join the Arab counterattack during the 1948 Naqba in return for taking possession of the West Bank.
It is true that the PLO tried to overthrow the King in the 1970s and were kicked out of Jordan as a result but the Hashemites have always been on the side of the colonisers.
Everybody there was put by the British (or French), the colonial era had to finish somehow. Many blames the British for that (well they made many mistakes of course), but it wasn’t so easy.
Palestinians could have the whole country as well. While in talks with the British the Mufti Al Husseini was proposed that, but he wanted also all the jews expelled, so the British turned down the all deal.
I won’t say the British has been awesome, but it’s pretty normal to understand they tried to save their influence. While the Palestinians also didn’t played so clear (Al Husseini founded later the Nazi SS in Bosnien).
I want Gaza free, I’m happy my governement recognizes Palestine, I want a state for Palestinians, but I don’t like Palestinians so much, they cretaed a lot of stupid shit, from Al Husseini down to Hamas.
This entire comment is pure distilled Israeli propaganda. That “Al Husseini” guy was appointed by the British.
So, everything bad = British. Isreal bad - Pelstinians good?
Such a deep thinking.
after a while they decided to try take over Jordan who was helping them.
Hadn’t heard about this, can you give a link?
If they think this will save them, let them turn their eyes to Syria. 😔
