'You Pack Your House on Your Back, and You Move': A Palestinian Speaks on Fleeing Rafah
For their sixth displacement, the family of a retired public employee will split up – the women to an apartment in Deir al-Balah and he and his boys to a tent on the coast of Gaza. He calls the arrangement 'bourgeois,' saying others don't have money for travel, a tent or food
"The whole eviction from Rafah went too fast. Everyone is laughing at us – the U.S., which said for five months that it opposes a ground operation in Rafah; Egypt, which said it was unacceptable. In the end, Israel does as it pleases, and then we start to realize that neither the U.S. nor Egypt really mind and that they don't really object. They don't want to force anything on Israel. It's all talk.
