You mean like the Jews of the Arab nations and the West Bank were ethnically cleansed? Where is their right of return?
The intent of the division of Transjordan was to provide an Arab homeland and a Jewish Homeland, much like the division of Pakistan and India. NOT perfect, but we are dealing with an attempt by the winning powers of WW I to deal with the Ottoman Empire- the results of which are the borders of present day Turkey, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia... It is NOT the fault of Israel that Jordan did not take in the refugees, as Israel did.
WHY do you single out Israel at the ONLY state created by that treaty
that has no right to it's land?
Why do youinsist that only the Palestinians have the right to life and property?
