Send them? I hope this is a speech to really aborde the refugee problem, and yes they need to be with people when they choose too but where? That why this issue "even they are UN resolution need to be mutualy agreed and save the interest of booth side. A creative leader is needed here. is there is some one who can step in for this? Good luck
2. Eurabia! Open your doors to your beloved Palestinians!

3. Libya is inviting war
Brod ,   USA   (03.17.07)
If Libya wants to cause suffering and hardship to their people and expelling them so that they will be used by the dark forces to flood Israel, he is inviting war and the downfall of his own government.
4. BottomLine::This is sample of "Arab brother's" hospitality!
KMR ,   Middle East   (03.18.07)
5. Oh yeah, THAT will help. Gaddafi obviously cares about Pals.
Zvi ,   USA   (03.18.07)
Right. We can see how much Gaddafi cares about Palestinians. He cares so much about them that he will DEPORT them. Never mind that this destroys their lives, leave them seeking shelter in densely populated Gaza, and leave Palestinians in Gaza trying to find homes for them. Never mind that this gesture cannot and will not help Palestinians to achieve anything, ever. Gaddafi is a typical Arab dictator. This empty propaganda gesture, meant to excite the Arab street, will destroy the lives of people he is claiming to help. Boy, does THAT make sense.
6. No surprise.
Oleg ,   USA   (03.18.07)
Nice move, colonel. You've just shown to the world how Arabs love their brothers.
7. hey KMR Col. Gaddafi is a berber not arab

9. Jews kicked out of Arab countries
Ken Jurist   (03.18.07)
Read this great article. http://www.hsje.org/jews_kicked_out_of_arab_countrie.htm
10. NO GO!!
Y ,   N   (03.18.07)
Israel should make two things absolutely clear: We will never return the Golan heights and never accept any return of the socalled refugees to Israel. End of story!!!!
11. To Gaza? How sweet of him.
(03.18.07)
12. Loved by nobody and wanted by nobody
Y ,   N   (03.18.07)
And im not talking about the jews this time. Well well well Israel gives 1 million pal arabs full citizenship in Israel and get just critique. The arabs kill palis in their 1000s (Jordan 1971 and in Lebanon in the 1980s). They expell them (Iraq and Kuwait) They hold them in refugee camps for 60 years. And they still blame Israel for all the pali suffering. Its really incredible but not surprising. Israel shouldnt accept one pali refugee inside their borders.
13. Arabs LOVE Arabs to death!
Jonathan ,   Tarrtown USA   (03.18.07)
Its no surprise when Arab culture can cultivate the "suicide/homicide bomber" that an Arab brother country can evict whole populations or even kill them. Whether Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afganistan, or Pakistan and all the others. I recall reading the "Haj" by Leon Uris, there he describes the Arab mentality: Brother against brother, sons against fathers, family against familty, tribe against tribe and the whole nation of Islam against the infidel!
14. in 1948 there were other refuguee population transfers
johanna ,   tsfat   (03.18.07)
eg india/pakistan where millions of people moved across the borders..in both directions..muslims to pakistan and hindus to india... none of them ended up in refuguee camps for 60 years...they just made new lives. and after '48, jews from the arab countries came here to israel, and they haven't been stuck in transit camps either, waiting to return to egypt or libya or whereever. stalin also transfered millions of people, the chinese are doing this today in tibet, outer mongolia etc.. the indonesians are doing it...and so on.. who says anything ? its only israel that has to put up with all this "palestinian right of return" cr*p. but the "poor palestinians" they have to stay in refuguee camps....if the arabs really cared about the "palestinians" they would give them some land in one or many of their 22 countries.
15. Let's face it?
Vilgot T ,   Drammen, Norway   (03.18.07)
This tiny event is a hint about an all out plan, an attempt by all Arabs to create a Palestinian nation, an in fact never seen nation aiming to destroy Israel. Whwtever they might develop, whatever they do has only one purpose. Lebanese, Syrians, Iraqis, Tunesians... they speak Arabic, have their Islamic culture in common, and yet are "unable" to absorb their "brothers". Without this hateful idea of annihilating Israel there would never occur any support in the world for creation of yet one more Arab state. An ancient Antisemitism is the leading star of all the events we are witnessing. Beautiful words about poor Pals has nothing to do with the sympathy for Pals. The hatred against Jews is so much greater. Sadly enough.
16. Reply to the "Libya is inviting war" by Brod, USA
John Rambo ,   Earth   (03.18.07)
Israel is the main problem in the Middle East. How long is the USA going to stay behind Israel? May be 20/30 years more, then it is over, all those who came to the religious state of Israel, will have to pack & go back from where they came. Some people are fanatic, they think they have the only right & they are always right. If so then where have you been last 2000 years?
17. The real problem...??
James ,   Germany, USA   (03.18.07)
The biggest problem in the Middle East is the, as we call them Palestiniens, (although at least half of them are not really so), and those who are supporting them. These `people` (yeah, I`ll be nice) don`t deserve and are not ready for their own country. They need to learn to live in peace with their neighbors first, they aren`t even sucessful in their guest countries. It`s obvious that Israel don`t want them, not even their arab bro`s want them, who does.....?
18. #16...what are you looking at?
DR ,   Florida,USA   (03.20.07)
It seems that you are seeing a totally different world then we are. Obviously other coiuntries like Lebanon, Jordan and Lybia don't want anything to do with the Palestinians, but you still blame Isarel. The US will always back Israel b/c it is the only democracy in the region that doesn't support terror. Sorry, but you'll have to wait a little more than 20 or 30 years. Maybe you can start reading in the meantime to educate yourself a little?
19. Fruit of the Mufti.
Rick ,   Bmore   (03.20.07)
In 1947 (or so) the Mufti of Jerusalem, who was a British appointee and an relative of Arafat, told the Pals to leave their homes and the victorious Arab armies would destroy the Jews in five days and all Pals would go home. Sixty years later the Pals still live in Arab lands as refugees with no rights. They live in camps and are not allowed regular jobs.
20. What the heck is wrong with Libya??
Korem ,   New York, USA   (03.28.07)
Apparently they boycott or deport at any sign of a peace agreement...what type of approach to the conflict is that??
