Florida’s Governor isn’t holding back when it comes to Gaza refugees that President Joe Biden is exploring bringing stateside, or about protests of Israel’s ongoing war with Hamas on college campuses.
Gov. Ron DeSantis linked the two topics, bemoaning Palestinian “blood feuds” as a reason not to allow people to be brought in via the United States Refugee Admissions Program.
“To take people from that part of the world and import those blood feuds to this country, that is not in your interest or your family’s interest. We should not be importing people in from the Gaza Strip,” DeSantis argued in the Hardee County city of Wauchula.
“I think if (Biden) does that it is not going to be something that benefits the United States of America. If anything, it will just exacerbate a lot of the problems that we’re seeing now and you know what people can say what they want.”
The Governor had previously bemoaned a “toxic culture” among Palestinians, saying they are “all antisemitic,” and blaming them for Bethlehem being a “pigsty,” so the tenor of his comments should be familiar to most following his comments.
DeSantis also repeated his promise that protesters on college campuses “will be expelled” if they don’t “abide by the rules in place for conduct.”
“What does it say about our society that people would go out and demonstrate and take Hamas’ side in this? You know, that’s a sickness that we see on these college campuses. But we also see the sickness in some of these other institutions in our society,” the Governor said.

one of my best friends and his whole family are some of my closest friends here in east tennessee. my friend was born in ramallah in 1950. he immigrated here and has been here ever since. my friend and his family are some of the most beloved people in my town. to think that Palestinians are any different than any other people, then set out to treat them with disparity is racist. desantis’ remarks are deplorable, but he is a deplorable person, so that fits.

TIM, you are speaking in opposites right? you couldn’t be stupid enough to actually believe what you just posted. if you do believe that, and it wasn’t meant sarcastically, then you are doomed to maga cultism even after maga cultism is finally waning.

Only a racist will try to characterize an entire nation or ethnicity as negative.
Sitting in for Peachy, Tim?

Palestinians as a people have not been good neighbors to the Israelis, I think we all have a right to be concerned if they would bring similar tactics here. Maybe there were some good Nazis, but Nazis as a people were not good shepherds to the Jewish people in countries they controlled; this is similar. If Palestinians come to the US to become Americans than maybe that is the type of person that we would want in our Country. But we need to get back to the US being a melting pot where immigrants become Americans.

Nope. Can’t import Palestinians. They might be terrorists.
And as we all know, MAGAs can’t handle competition, always claiming the competitors stole their jobs, their womens, their elections, and then also their terrorism?
What would MAGAs even have left for them if they got edged out of terrorism by immigrants too?
