The title ‘refugee’ is conferred on subsequent generations like a perverse peerage.

Well said. I met a beautiful young lady not long ago in a fancy hotel lobby: she was on her way to matriculate at a (top 5 US University,) identified immediately as a Palestinian, and wanted to tell me about her and her peoples' struggle.
Having lived in Israel I was interested to know where she was from - what her story was - etc. Finally, it was revealed as she stared at the floor, and then at me, defiantly, that neither she nor her parents or family had anything to do with "Palestine:" They merely identified as "Palestinian." This is enough to get you to replace just about any hard-working American at a top University.

Your words, “perverse peerage”
How very well put! May we quote that, with attribution?
