Why are the rich neighboring Arab countries not taking innocent civilians to safety from Gaza?

Qatar has been investing billions in this war , yet they are not willing to take children and women to safety from Gaza, and let them get burnt alive by Israel, it pisses me off when I see children being torn into peices, this is not normal to happen in this day and age!!! How can people allow this to happen???? If this happened in Ukraine there would have been an outrage!!! I just don't get it why people don't at least take civilians to Egypt or somewhere until these people finish they're fighting and finish the war, why should they be stuck in this doomed piece of land and die in a horrible way? This could happen to anyone if we let this happen to them what stops them from doing it to us tomorrow?? People are so racist they think Palestinians are trouble makers and that their lives don't matter that's why everyone is refusing to take them and to help them, even though it's not their fault that they were born there, it's just luck that they happen to be born in such volatile place.

At a very basic level, you're right. To allow the slaughter to continue, is unconscionable.

But you're missing the entire historical context, and the reality of the situation today. For starters: no, they're not all the same religion, the same people and the same empire.

If you're referring to the Ottoman Empire, then it's not even the same language, or the same race.

If you're referring to Arabic, then do you think that all those who speak English, are the same people?

Do you believe the answer to a terrorist group, operating at the London Tower, is mass obliteration of London, and to allow the authorities to clean up the London Tower, let's move the entire population of London, to, for instance, Arkansas, until it blows over, and then years later, figure out how to bring them back to London?

The party ultimately responsible for their safety, as far as international law is concerned, is Israel. Add to that, the fact that the Israeli government, led by right wing Orthodox, has a goal of emptying out Gaza and the West Bank of its Arab residents, and turn it into part of a Jewish state, "from the river to the sea" (if you believe it's a Palestinian slogan, think again).

@Northwest what’s funny is the same folks complaining about “open borders” and asylum seekers are some of the same people who think Egypt needs to be taking in all palestinians.
