Should Europe? Should we? Will you absorb thousands of immigrants into your neighborhood?
Israel -- actually any nation -- is under zero obligation to take in immigrants that show up illegally.
It's pretty nice of them to offer a ticket and cash.
Using your logic, no one was under any obligation to help the Jews (gypsies, disabled, etc) fleeing the Holocaust.
That is correct. It was entirely up to the discretion of the United States. Many factors were probably taken into account, not in the least was the ability for the European Jews to assimilate easily and readily into American society and not be a burden.
The problems in Eritrea (and Ethiopia and Somalia and Syria) can not be solved by absorbing their entire populations into other countries. While kind-hearted, this is ridiculously short-sighted.
Not up to the discretion of the Palestinians, of course. The people who, you know, already lived there.
I believe that we are responsible for each other's well-being. By living on this planet, we are beholden to one another. No one is obligated to help victims of human trafficking, or of natural disasters, or of famine, and yet we do. I think the same level of compassion should be applied to people seeking to escape oppressive and war-torn environments.

Oooh, goodie, you're so right, these Africans should be so grateful for a one-way ticket back to the place they were risking their lives to escape. On a very basic level, whatever happened to "paying it forward"?
Are you a grown up or are you in high school? No wait, make that college and your majoring in what, Women's Studies? Oppressive White People?
Do you have one of those "Everything I learned in Kindergarten" posters on your wall?
Yes. They should be grateful.
Israel *owes* them nothing.
Not sure America owes Israel nothing. Israel is a key ally in the middle east and provides military intelligence and tactical support.
And America *owes* Israel nothing and yet *continues* to subsidize their military to the tune of *2 billion* a year.

Only goes to show, people never learn from history and are doomed to repeat it, over and over.
