State of Palestine 22:05 - Sep 21 with 5435 viewsSitfcB

Genuine post and question.

Can someone explain what it means, why it’s been done and what they hope will come from it?

Is it a good or bad thing?

Thank you.

Many Palestinians have been in Jordan 50-70 years now after the 1948 and 1967 Arab- Israeli wars and have had plenty of time too integrate and many have. Many who didn't followed Arafat to Lebanon when Jordan were forced to expel the PLO or face potential war with Israel.


Complicated, isn't it ? Those stats from 2015 show almost no Palestinians in Lebanon, back in the Seventies or Eighties I remember watching a John Pilger report on ITN about the vast refugee camp in Tunisia but I think that was dispersed because of a destabilising effect that was perceived later by Ben Ali's regime. Just as Jews have experienced over the centuries there have been significant displacements of Palestinians since 1948. And there must be an upcoming logistical nightmare to compare with the difficulties that Israel faces finding land on which new Jewish migrants can settle if a workable two state solution is found and hundreds of thousands of Palestinians start to return to their historic homeland.
