Among the more unusual Israeli responses to the conflict I've encountered is this one:
Assisted Emigration Services
Palestinians are trapped. Many Palestinians desperately want to, but are unable to, emigrate. Palestinians have the right to escape the incessant cross fire by migration. The Palestinians' decision to resort to terrorism has so reduced the average standard of living that about 380,000 Palestinians recently left their families and homes to emigrate elsewhere.
These emigrants found that there was no support network to help them adjust to the new country. As the security situation deteriorated, the borders to Jordan were closed.
And now, Palestinians are prevented from exercising their option to emigrate.
We have established a mechanism for the orderly and compassionate emigration of innocent families to supportive countries.
We provide humanitarian assistance to those who find themselves in the cross fire and seek a prosperous, quiet and fulfilling life. Our network of experts work together to provide the tools to build a new life. The network includes social workers, psychologists, lawyers, and financial analysts that have pooled their expertise to facilitate smooth transitions to a new country and adaptation to a new culture.

- Freedom of migration is a basic human right protected under the 1946 UN Declaration of Human Rights.
- How can anyone be against the prerogative of a Palestinian Arab to build a new life in a country of his or her choice?
- There currently is no other organized system to provide assistance in emigration to Palestinians living in buffer zones and in the crossfire.
- While getting an airline ticket is no problem, obtaining a visa and security clearance from the Arab village to the airport is problematic.
