The Palestinian refugees: right vs reality : Comments

By Alon Ben-Meir, published 20/8/2018

They offer their people excuses to justify their dismal failures instead of focusing on building the infrastructure of a viable state and providing opportunities for economic development.

An inherent right to return to long-abandoned homeland has precedent and founded in law by the latter-day creation and foundation of the modern day state of Israel! And the return by the Jewish diaspora after thousands of years.

There is a solution here and it is a two-state solution that the warring parties can live with, even if it means massive compromise by both sides!

However, will never ever happen as long as a patently corrupt PM and his cohort of clearly corrupt war mongering cronies continue to rule the roost? And keep shifting hypothetical goal posts, after the hypothetical kick is taken!

Well said, Alon:

I agree with this article 99%, that is except for the mention towards the end of "land swaps". For its own good, Israel should not end up with even one square millimetre of the toxic territories it took over in 1967, especially not in Eastern Jerusalem: only then can the curse of this ongoing "6-day" war be finally lifted!

The problem with the two state solution is that it has been tried for seventy years and has nothing to show for it. At some point in time we should stop banging our heads against a wall hoping one day the wall will change to an actual path. Is the Palistian states worked for their people then my stance might be different. But the poverty and status of refugees within Palistian cities s enough to not support the Palistian leaders in any way.

Let Palistian refugees move to Jorden. Apparently that was part of the origional terms of Israel's deal with land to give some of the land they squired to the new state of Jorden. The Palistians have no rights to the land any more due to their inability to live in peace. Suicide bombings removed that right years ago. But again if the reality of the sitution was different, and the Palistians were living in a better state of affairs, then there could be more trust to the Palistian leaders and a two state solution might be a viable choice.

Instead the leaders do nothing to bargain peace, or to help their people, but instead they keep their people in poverty and are terrorist orginizations paying the families of suicide bombers and refugee soldiers. They've lost their rights. It's time we recoginized this reality.
