Palestinian refugees' leaving Lebanon en masse

A Credible Peace Plan, at Last
Jerusalem Post ^ | December 4, 2017 | Caroline B. Glick
"...Saudi peace plan. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman reportedly presented it to PLO chief and Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas last month...It reportedly proposes the establishment of limited Palestinian sovereignty over small portions of Judea and Samaria. The Gaza Strip, over which the Palestinians have had full sovereignty since Israel pulled its military forces and civilians out in 2005, would be expanded into the northern Sinai, thus providing economic and territorial viability to the envisioned Palestinian state. While the Palestinians would not receive sovereignty over Jerusalem, they would be able to establish their capital in the Jerusalem suburb of Abu Dis."

I would have no problem with “dirt farmers,” America was settled by them. They just need to stay on their own dirt.

If I am not mistaken, Lebanon was founded as a dedicated Christian country.

Many Palestinians have often advertised that many Palestinians are Christians for the purpose of getting support for their stated goal from Christians in other nations. Much like Lebanese and Syrian propaganda efforts.

I recollect a news article from mid 90 s that he started life out as a Christian and converted to Islam as did other senior pla members. Truthfully? I don’t care other than I don’t want to propagate or be the origin of fake news. In the end it turned out Yasir only believed in himself. Having embezzled billions of dollars from the Palestinian people.

“Why? They are fellow Arabs, there’s nothing special about the Palestinians.”

When I lived on Mount Scopus in 1978, on my first day there a Pali bomb factory exploded within sight of my school.

Nailed it! Where were the massive welcomings & resettlements of Palestinian refugees in the countries ruled by their Arab brethren across the Middle East?

Where in the world did you learn that nonsense?

You got the timeline right but the rest sounds like a idiot professor taught you the rest.

Thanks nickcarraway.
Experience amply demonstrates that the path to Middle East peace does not lie through appeasing Palestinian threats, colluding with or ignoring UN bias against Israel and refusing Israel the rights of any other country, such as choosing its own capital. The international community must stop denying reality...

The Shah tried to “reform” Islamic society. So did Ataturk, and some guy in Tunisia whose name escapes me.

The problem is, the long-bearded goat-smelling fanatics that inevitably crop up and stage reactionary revolutions are looked upon, both by themselves and fellow Muslims, as “reformers” of the corrupting influence of Western culture. Economic prosperity cannot counter their siren calls, because prosperity and opportunity is frightening to poor Muslims, who in poverty at least know where they stand. The uncertainty of urbanization and higher living standards are seen as disruptive of semi-communal village life and its comforting stability, albeit in poverty.

What’s the solution? Maybe there is one.

The article was wrong. In fact, so wrong that it is a pack of lies.

(Why would spell check change pack to package?)
