The way I heard it was that the syrians did not want these people in their own country so they moved them all to a portion of the country near Israel.
Yassir (that’s my baby) Arafat head came up with the idea that Palestine was a country when it was just a segregated group of syrians that Syria didn’t even want.
He’s also the POS reason that you have to take off your clothes and take off your shoes at the airport
These were the syrians that Syria didn’t want. And if you look at them you can see why.

Most “Palestinians” are Jordanian in origin.
