1. Pals prefer being refugees to accepting Jewish state
Sam ,   Canada   (05.22.14)
Palestinians complain about the refugees and the miserable life but they still prefer that to living alongside a Jewish state.Israel isn't going to commit suicide for them so tough luck. The Palestinians have made their choice.
2. NOT LIKELY...
stude ham   (05.22.14)
this head of a too well established Christian religion hasn't even lifted a finger towards helping those kidnapped African Christian school girls. and the palis want what?
3. I hope the pope has a nice visit,
Erin ,   USA   (05.22.14)
I also hope the pope speaks on the needfor prayer and how valuable it is; you see we have people here on earth who attack the kingdom of heaven in the spiritual realm and try to steal it by killing angels in heaven, and killing Father's angels here on earth; and that needs to stop. It's shameful to attack angels, they never do anything but help you. They are holy and pure, leave them alone, and stop attacking the kingdom of Heaven.
4. The pals were neither driven out or forced out

they left in fear when the Jews came home. Seems one of their 1948 'leaders' on a radio program told the 'pals 'that the Jews were coming and that they intended to rape their wives ( Have you ever seen one of the pals wives?) in hopes the pals would get ready to fight instead 'pals' split. Typical arabs, they would rather kill their women 'honorably' than to face off with the Jews. No courage, no guts, no glory just 'pal' terrorists. ISRAEL THE BETTER BUILDING BUREAU!!!
5. Refugee life...designed by Arab and Pally leaders
William ,   Israel   (05.22.14)
"There no return to our homes and land, no real life, no space, no jobs, no services, no economy." This is by design. Since 1948, Arabs have cynically treated refugees very poorly and made sure they had no way to advance in life, even to suffer extremely, because its good PR against Israel. Generations of people traumatized because of PR, and the Arab racist stance that only with the elimination of Israel can these people be whole again.... even though refugees, including Jewish ones from Arab Lands, have all been absorbed and found their feet again to become productive members of humanity. And, it begs to mention, that Christian Arab refugees get it the worst.....with Muslims treating them like 2nd class citizens and stealing from them all the time.
6. The pampered palestinians got a special status
Jake   (05.22.14)
No other group in the world is granted refugee status beyond the first generation, and the pals have entiire UN agency devoted to welfare and perpetuating their refugee status (UNRWA). Meanwhile, millions of genuine Syrian refugees and others barely make a footnote in the media and UN agenda.
7. Sickening

The "Palestinians" in these so-called "refugee" camps are NOT refugees. They are displaced persons, who VOLUNTARILY left. Voluntary quits have no right of return, and are not refugees. But one does wonder why, so many decades following their departure, their brother Arabs have yet to resettle them as permanent citizens of any Arab country. Perhaps they just don't make very good guests. That would CERTAINLY explain why the "Palestinians" have been kicked out of Jordan, kicked out of Lebanon, kicked out of Tunisia, kicked out of Kuwait, kicked out of Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Oman, Muscat and Fujeira, and barred from entry to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia except for purposes of Haj, when only a handful can enter at any given time. The "Palestinians" just spread incredible warmth and cheer wherever they go. I don't remember the Vatican saying much of anything when one million Jews were summarily and unceremoniously expelled from Arab and Moslem lands with little more than the clothes on their backs. Of course, in 1948, the Vatican was so busy issuing passports to wanted Nazi war criminals, which enabled most of them to escape to Argentina (Francis' home; wonder what his role in that sordid affair may have been). A whole colony was set up by these wanted Nazis, many of whom were sentenced to death in absentia, in Chile, called Colonia Dignidad. In the 1960s, of course, the Vatican was too busy worrying about how best to hide pederast priests to concern itself with the plight of still more homeless, penniless Jews. But voluntary quits who happen to be so-called "Palestinians?" Stop the presses! The Vatican has absolutely nothing better to do (notwithstanding the fact that most of the poorest people in the world happen to be Roman Catholics) than to pay lip service to a terrorist rabble. I guess if you are capable of issuing a Vatican passport to Adolf Eichmann and Josef Mengele -- may both their names be cursed throughout eternity -- there isn't much that is too low for the Vatican to go. I'm still waiting for an apology for the Inquisition. Fortunately, I am not holding my breath. If there is a more corrupt, licentious and criminal organization in the world than the Roman Catholic Church, it has yet to make an appearance.

BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (05.22.14)
So you know, Jews come in all colors, Judaism is a religion not a race. Pretty much the same as other religions. Exception being, the Jews aren't murdering Jews, Muslims and Christians and, the Muslims are with great relish! And.. there is NO palestine and never will be thank G-d. BUILDING A BIGGER BETTER ISRAEL FOR JEWS !!!
12. Den of thieves, thugs and terrorists
(05.22.14)
Know it for 40 years, hasn't changed just grown larger and uglier
13. To: No. 10
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (05.22.14)
Actually, your DNA places you squarely in the Hejaz in the Western Arabian desert. That's your ancestral home; that's the area to which you are indigenous. DNA does not lie -- so now get the hell out of MY land. There's also a small fraction of you which hail from Bosnia. Seems that you kept on making incredible trouble for the Ottomans, too. What is it with you people -- violence and terror are your sole claim to fame. You have contributed absolutely nothing to civilization. You people are as vestigial as an appendix. Get lost.
14. #10 the "Palestinians" are not indigenous
Vlad   (05.22.14)
Most of them came as immigrants when the Zionist pioneers were creating new opportunities and reviving the land. They were like the Mexicans now flooding into the USA.
