One cannot fault the Jordanians or Israelis for not wanting the Palestinians. Arafat and the PLO tried to overthrow the Jordanian government in the bloody fighting of September, 1970 and they have never failed to try to kill Israelis when the opporunity was offered, as when they controled southern Lebanon.

The fact that no one "wants" them is NOT justification for the establishement of a Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza, which will very obviously be used for attacks on Israel and the murder of Israelis. It would be like allowing Al Qaida to establish a state in northern Mexico.

Or in New Mexico, to fiddle with the analogy a bit.
