Egyptian Comedian Bassem Youssef explains why moving Palestinians into other Arab states surrounding Israel would be the “worst solution” to the war in the Middle East.

In a wide-ranging and at times confronting interview with Sky News Australia host Piers Morgan, Mr Youssef broke down elements of the unfolding Israel-Hamas war.

The political commentator said Palestinians have essentially been “kicked around from their homes” and questions why another country should take them in.

“Israel has been talking openly about this, it’s like ‘why don’t they just go in Sinai? You know what would happen? Those people are going to be pushed in Sinai and with two million people living in refugee camps what do you think would happen? Unrest, chaos,” Mr Youssef said.

“Then after a few years, Western media will come with the cameras like ‘Oh look at those Arabs, oh they are killing each other’.”

Mr Youssef said it’s the same question that should be posed to the countries in Europe as to why they shouldn’t take in people from Israel.

“The whole idea is like ‘oh you’re Arabs, you are all the same’ – no, no, no.”
