Israel had invited the Arab Moslems to STAY in Israel, and become citizens. Many did. Those who chose to flee, with the promise BY THE ARAB LEAGUE that they would get ALL of Palestine are the ones who aRE REFUGEES- AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN IN BY JORDAN, the ARAB PALESTINIAN state, as Israel took in those Jews who were forced out of the Arab states.

The present "Palestinians" had a choice- they CHOSE to flee, and made NO effort to return from 1948 to 1967, except as members of an occupying army. The ones WHO STAYED in Israel have their land and houses.

How many Jews are now in those Arab countries? And how many Arabs in Israel, with a MUCH smaller area and total population?


"The best solution for the area would have been a single state where Jews and Muslims and Christians would all live alongside each other."

Please compare Israel, the "jewish" homeland, and Jordan, the "Arab" homeland. Which is closer to your desired best solution?

The 1923 White paper PROHIBITED Jewish immegration to Transjordan- So the lack of a "right of return" for Arab Palestinians to the "jewish" homeland is only fair.


BTW, the present Palestinians have still NOT recognized the right of Israel to exist.
