    Israel should take in the refugees they created, and offer them citizenship, if they are serious about this not being a genocide and only being about Hamas. It is, after all, their ancestral land.

    I suspect the far-right parties like Netanyahu’s Likud would never let this happen though. Netanyahu is probably quite happy Hamas committed their atrocities to give him cover for more of his own atrocities.

      Israel’s population is roughly 10M, so this would add 10% people with 24.42/3.4 birth/death rate to their population. If those rates continue, they would guarantee a population change in Israel in a few generations. So they cannot practically do that.

      Those rates are incidentally also the main reason why Gaza’s average age is so low.
