Evil Israel allows more Gazans to work... in Israel

The Israeli government is on Sunday expected to raise the number of permits for Gazans to work in Israel by an additional 8,000, to a total of 20,000, the Ministry for Regional Cooperation said.

Cabinet ministers are set to sign off on a government resolution authorizing the additional permits at their weekly meeting. The decision comes as Israel seeks to reduce tensions with the Palestinians before the Ramadan holiday, with some officials fearing heightened tensions.

The quota was raised to 12,000 permits just two weeks ago. An Israeli security official briefed reporters at the time that the ceiling would soon be raised to 20,000 at the initiative of Defense Minister Benny Gantz.

Qatari envoy to the Gaza Strip Mohammad al-Emadi, who regularly meets with both Israeli and Palestinian officials, told Gaza media on Thursday that Israel had pledged to eventually raise the quota to 30,000 permits.

But...I thought that Israel was racist and only wanted to bomb civilians in Gaza, not help them out!

Must be that Israel wants to enslave them by paying them triple the normal wage in Gaza. Yeah, that must be it.

And that's exactly how the haters spin this sort of news. Because they start from the assumption that Jews are greedy, malicious, and murderous.

The idea that Israel has every interest in helping Gaza's economy, and that since there have been few incidents from Gaza in recent months and therefore there is little additional risk from allowing more workers with appropriate security vetting - the haters don't want anyone to think that way. The only "fact" to them is Jewish mendacity, and they twist every story to fit that predetermined conclusion.

And this includes "human rights experts" and academics and politicians. People who swear that they are against antisemitism engage in it every day by assuming that the Israeli government and Israelis are simply awful people, and they pretend that "oh, I don't hate Jews, just Israelis or Zionists." They really believe it. Yet their actions and feelings about Israel and Israelis and Zionists are exactly the same as those of right-wing antisemites against Jews.
