Lmao they're literally fighting a war to have a right to return to Israel, why would you think that a court choice like this is a trap? If anything this will piss off the israeli right wing.

Answered your own question: they won the right to apply to go from the urban killing fields to a less dangerous place ruled by bigots who hate them and fought to deny them even THAT right.

I'm sure the court means well by upholding their human rights as per the 1951 Geneva Convention, but it'll probably be more of a from the fire to the frying pan situation than actually having equal rights and personal safety. .

That still doesn't make any sense but OK... Guess its an improvement overall even if the situation in Israel is not great for them either

You have an eerie talent for claiming to have no idea what's going on and then clearing up any confusion yourself in the next sentence 😂

I still have no idea what you mean when you say "it's a trap", I have literally no idea what that's supposed to mean. Will the Isreali right secretly holocaust all of the queer people, is it like trap in the sense that all the trans women will larp as orthodox jewish women and therefore become traps or what did you mean?

I wasn't the one saying it that way, but what I WAS saying is this: while of course better than living in the kill box that is Gaza, they probably aren't going to have it easy in Israel either, since it's governed by the most far right government it has ever had, some of the members of which are openly honophobic are trying to roll back all LGBTQ+rights and protections..
