Excellent and well-research analysis of the present situation. I agree with you that pushing Palestinians in Gaza to Egypt, even if "temporarily" is ethnic cleansing. We have 75 years of history to back this up, as none of the 800,000 Palestinian refugees forced out in 1948 could ever return to their lands. See my story about Iqrit, a small village in the north of Palestine whose former residents live nearby and have Israeli citizenship, but are forbidden from rebuilding Iqrit, despite decades of Supreme Court orders and Prime Minister promises supporting their case.
