No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

We moved a bunch of people and made Israel. So let's do it again. We'll just move the Palestinians to Wyoming. We've got plenty of space up there.
You know what? Fuck it, let's do it. We helped create these problems, let's help solve them. 67% of Gaza's population is under 24, so any money we spend, we'll like get back in tax dollars. We can set up a Palestinian relocation bureau and start a voluntary exodus. Set aside relocation into our empty ass states, with some condition that they must maintain permanent residence for 5-10 years in that state. Have a jobs program and generate a great surge of skilled labor. We might let in a few extremists, but a third of our population is already there, so a couple thousand more won't really impact our status quo too much.
"Hey Cleetus, we should offer to let Palestinians immigrate freely to America."
"Hell no! My brother didnt go to Afghanistan so we can just invite the terrorists in!"
Sing-song voice "They haaaaate jeeeeeewwws"
"Aite I'm listenin"
Not to mention, most Jews in America would NEVER vote for the party that proposed that ever again.
I like the but enthusiasm but not all wyomingers will want neighbors, kinda like some of the indigenous Palestinians didn't necessarily want a bunch of settlers. Hmm
Not just Wyoming, we have quite a few states that sit empty. Their opinions on the issue don't matter. They'll just have to make do, like they expect others to do. Like I said, we'll make it voluntary for the Palestinians. Those who want to stay and fight the power in the apartheid state can, but those who want a chance at something else can come on over.
I know you are not suggesting that seriously, but if we were to consider that seriously, I don't think it would work.
Palestine (and more concretely Jerusalem) is considered the Holy Land by Judaism, Islam and Christianity. That's why the state of Israel was created there and not somewhere else. And that's why Palestinians wouldn't receive with a lot of enthusiasm the idea of being given a state of their own somewhere else.
A big part of the conflict is a "holy war" thing about who controls the Holy Land.
Fuck religion and fuck everyone in that region in particular. As long as they keep killing each other in revenge for killing each other, things aren't going to change.
Come visit us in the 22nd century and see how civilized it could be.
I told this to a group of people once and the silence killed me from ever commenting on the situation in a group setting again. A diplomat I am not
🤣
What kind of heartless monster do you have to be to inflict Wyoming on the poor souls‽
Haven't they suffered enough‽
You'd probably see the most success relocating them to the great lakes where arab communities are already pretty well established. Also Queens to a lesser extent, Palestinians in particular would feel right at home in Queens, they've got Knaffeh and everything!
Better Wyoming than Fr*nce
Wyoming is absolutely beautiful, it's main downside is that for much of the year its weather wants you dead.
They’re from one of the hottest countries on Earth, and you wanna give them even more problems by placing them in one of America’s coldest states, with heat domes and blizzards in the same week, hurricane-force winds and hail that can kill you? (Wyoming)
