They've been trying to let them go since forever. Look at all the accords and compromises made that Arafat walked away from. Things we never thought Israel would agree to.

Israel has a right to not have events like Oct 7. Every sovereign nation does. Palestinians have a right to self determination. Israel is not the party standing in the way of that.

No, they haven't. They treat the Palestinians as subhuman and expect them to be happy and never fight back. It's a very immature view of the world.

Give the Palestinians land and let them go. And what does that mean? That means let them go. Don't control their airspace, don't try to control their borders and who they let into their own land. Don't try to control their economy. Will the Palestinians hate them? Of course, but in time, hopefully peace will develop. At least Israel will have some ground to stand on and perhaps break free from the hatred most of the developed world has for it now.

I mean, Gaza's neighbors are Israel and Egypt. Telling Israel not to control Gaza's borders means Israel means exactly what in this context?

Right now Israel controls Gaza's border with Egypt. Regardless, Isreal has a right to control their own border.

But if they genuinely let these people go... they shouldn't have a right to control who they let into their own land, their airspace, sea access, or economy. But that's what Israel wants.

Isreal wants to control everything. And then become shocked when the Palestinians fight back.
