ISRAEL TO EGYPT: WE'LL PAY YOUR DEBT

An Israeli news report recently claimed Netanyahu's government offered to pay off a chunk of Egypt's debt to the World Bank in exchange for the African country accepting Palestinian refugees from Gaza. Meanwhile, other reports have revealed EU officials also are putting pressure on Egypt at Tel Aviv's request.

Israel has long wanted to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from Gaza and push them into Egypt's Sinai peninsula. This is not a conspiracy theory. A recording of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak discussing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's proposal was leaked to the press a decade ago.

Meanwhile, Egypt's current president, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, has repeatedly stated in public that his country is not willing to follow this path. It would create a land without a people, deal a blow to Palestinian statehood and become a security threat for Egypt in the near future, he said.
