    I’ve also wondered this. Egypt isn’t dropping bombs but they’re just as complicit in the blockade as Israel. It feels like it’s never even mentioned that Gaza and Egypt share a border.

      Because it’s not true. Israel decides what comes in and out, otherwise they threaten either airstrikes or to reinvade the border region. The one thing Israel doesn’t object to is to allow all Gazans to leave, but that’s because they want Gaza to repopulate so they can seize it.
