    I don’t see the benefit to slow rolling the release of foreign nationals in Gaza. Why is it going to take 2 weeks?

      Reasonable answer: Because they need to ensure that everyone has a place to go and won’t cause an international incident when the border (so Egypt) devices that they don’t have a valid passport or are going to become a homeless person or whatever. Also make sure there aren’t any known terrorists sneaking out.

      Real answer: So that the IDF can murder more of them

            The IDF are the ones with the missiles, the rockets, the guns, the bombs, the tanks, the walls, the barbed wire and the funding taken from US tax payers. If the fascist terrorist state of Israel doesn’t like the world’s reaction, maybe it should change its behavior.

              That is some fine brainless gibberish that still does not explain why Egypt would want the IDF to kill civilians.
