This situation is fucked.
Shame on Egypt for being such poor hosts — hospitality being something I can testify is an incredible Arab skill — to Darfur refugees that they end up wanting to flee across the border to a supposedly "apartheid" state in the eyes of most Egyptians. Obviously apartheid is better than the compassion you are offering these (mainly Muslim) refugees here, Egypt.
And shame on Israel for 1) closing its doors to real, actual refugees of a genocide and 2) Closing its doors to genocide victims because they are not the right religion. If those Sudanese were among the chosen people, Israel would be flying them in by the planefull:

"Operation Moses, named after the biblical figure Moses, was the covert removal of Ethiopian Jews (known as the "Beta Israel" community) from Sudan during a famine in 1984....Begun November 21, 1984, it involved the air transport of some 8,000 Ethiopian Jews from Sudan directly to Israel..."A pox on both their houses...
