So, all those more or less rich mulsim countries in the area they better spent billions on stupid megalomaniac construction projects in the desert, on weapons production and war mongering but they can't take in as refugees the very people they are encouraging and arming to fight. And all of that because Israel is wrong in what they are doing. Did I miss anything?

Do you understand the sheer scale of a million refugees? That these refugees will never be allowed back?

A sixth of the current Ukranian refugees, I believe.

Yeah, the fact that their militaries are equally as useless without US bases lol.

Living example: Yemen

Sometimes I wish the USA would leave just so I can watch Iran and KSA kick each other in the crotch, and then get promptly invaded by Yemen.

This. USA guarantees and actively manufactures to the best of her capabilities peace around the world. Despite what commies may have you believe

Letting them in means letting Hamas in, means destabilising your country and government which can lead to governments being overthrown, kings assassinated etc... Which has happened before.

They just don't want to get involved in a war that can be easily solved with the two state solution, instead of spilling over in the region, right when they're doing better. Also, you know why would they, when Israel is screaming for making a parking lot from Gaza, instead of letting civilians live there. They know those refugees will never go back. So, would you give up a piece of your country for them?

Aside from that, let's not forget that those countries already have accepted millions of refugees from the wars in the past decades and while Europe took in only a fraction of that (although most Europeans think they took in much more).

So, there's that.
