Careful! The Saudi govt says a just settlement to the refugee problem but I believe for them that means that all descendents have the right to return to what is now Israel--and of course the demographics would destroy Israel. Second, the Saudi gov is hardly the Arab League--has the Arab League announced terms? Third: so long as Hamas runs the Palestinians, and continue to announce there will be no peace with Israel, there is not going to be a settlement. The leftistsw (sorry about that, paper) have always dreamt that the Arab s could be brought around to peace but those …

When you have been invaded and with the desire to eliminate your country any number of times, if you then seize land in repelling attackers--they were not Palestinains by the way--then you do not simply give back the land and call it quits till the next attack. Israel has shown no signs of wanting to destroy its neighbors. But you begin to negotiate with a group that suggests that it no longer seeks your destruction. This has not happened as yet. The comment is very cute (aboive) but totally meaningless except for someone asture person miles from the suicide bombers. …

2 millions? wow! 750 thousand refugees is the more nearly accurate figure of those that had lived in the land that is now Israel and fled.

Legal. I am not going to be impressed by writings of people because they might …

They prefer Israel ldemocracy and have more social stability and work there) Jewish refugees from arab lands (which you deny!) http://www.palestinefacts.org/pf_independence_refugees_jews_what.php forced out? are you referring to the result of the wars to exterminae Israel? You may not like the nubmer of states belonging to the UN but that is what there was and what was recognized and accepted at the time--The Arabsw assisted Hitler; the Jews, their enemy, the Brits. There was no state and has never been a state called Palestine. never. I am very familiar with …

If I follow your arguement about the Irish and the Plestinians, then the Am ericans have unjustly taken North America (stolen it) from the native Americans (aka Indians). UN is not representative till such time as you can call it representative? See history on Truman and the arguements about NOT recognizing a state for Israel, which Clark Clifford did however urge Truman to do. You can cite this and that. I too. Said wants one state to rid the region of israel . Fisk? very very anti-Israel. Thje mufti met face to face with Hitler and he was in charge of …
