1. Their stupidity never ceases to amaze me.
Deavman ,   TA   (07.26.16)
2. BALESTINIANS call to sue Britain
LION OF JUDAH   (07.26.16)
I want to sue the British weather, and now I am looking for top Barrister to defend my case.

3. Going back to the past and no solutions for the future
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (07.26.16)
So what about Abbas suing the Ottomans...The Crusaders, the Romans, Greeks, Persians, Assyrians, Babylonians not to mention Neanderthals?

ANYTHING that would help deflect attention from the growing tide of Palestinian support for a ONE UNITARY Palestine in an expanded Gaza created from land exchanges with Israel and possible purchases of territory from Egyptian Sinai

Clearly not in the interests of the PA or Hamas who are DESPERATE to protect the status quo and their respective grips on to power and wealth

Yet THERE IS NO WAY Palestinian Statehood can be advanced without a solution that encompasses ALL the people of Gaza, the West Bank and the Diaspora into ONE UNITARY and CONTIGUOUS STATE

(Must find out about suing the French for the hurt from William the Conqueror on No Win No Fee?)
4. stop feeling sorry
mike north ,   karmiel israel   (07.26.16)
Why don't the Pals just move on.Why do they drag everything to the detriment of their people?
Now theylook 100 years back to try and justify their cause.
Pathetic.
Camp David- Arafat was offered a magnificent deal and he returned this gesture with the intifada.
Crying and protesting has only caused such hardships on both sides.
The Jewish refugees thrown out of Arab lands shook off the dust and created a life in their new home.
Why cannot the world stop feeling sorry for the pals and stop funding such huge amounts of money as the money does not help the pal people.
It is swallowed by their leaders for their own benefit or fund the ongoing terrorist activities
5. Any nonsense to try to get EU to throw Israel under a bus
Alan ,   SA   (07.26.16)
There is not the remotest chance that Palys under ANY leadership will negociate peace. All they expect is an Obamanoid US President and EU in concert with USA to allow them to demographicaly overwhelm the Jews in Israel and take ALL Israel.
All the time they try to keep all the balls in the air with every nonsense!
6. wow. lets sue barbarian invading arabs and all damages since
ralph   (07.26.16)
and uk for breaking promise to jews by giving away land which wasn't their to invading barbarian arabs.
7. AS ALWAYS
Robert ,   Israel   (07.26.16)
As always, they need to blame someone else, instead of accepting what they got. It is easier to blame others and to receive millions of dollars every month from those who prefer to keep them as poor displaced people than to start working and make a nice Nation with intelligent and productive people. This needs a big effort from each Palestinian. Being beggars, doesn't.
8. Britain had no right or legal standing to give away Palestin
James   (07.26.16)
Balford Declarations was a personal note. The 1947 UN Partition was never ratified by the UN Security Council and had no legal standing. Khazar-Ashkenazi jews have no historical connection with Palestine.
9. Palestinians call to sue UK
niss ,   london   (07.26.16)
why don't the Palestinians sue themselves for the lies that they come up with
what were they were before 1967
10. i call upon all arabs to vacate jewish lands and take brick
ralph   (07.26.16)
by brick their structure on our temple. and pay civil damages for the death and destruction they brought with them.
11. The case of priority
Gene   (07.26.16)
But why don't they sue UN for declaring Israel in 1947? I wonder.
12. Sue them for Khaybar, with composite interests
Avi L.   (07.26.16)
Right, so let's sue them for Khaybar, with composite interests.

All the golf riches won't suffice.
13. They'll have to sue the UN
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (07.26.16)
Seeing that the Balfour Declaration was incorporated into the League of Nations' 'Mandate for Palestine' which was adopted by its successor,the United Nations,it has the nature of International Law.

These jokers only like International Law when they can distort it to their own advantage.

THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
14. Shows Abbass's low IQ
Dan   (07.27.16)
15. Palestinians to Sue Britain over Balfour (really!!)
Michael   (07.27.16)
Next on the Palestinian's list of lawsuit targets: G-d
He promised the land to the Jews too, didn't he?

Wow, these people have no shame!
16. # 10 Ralph, I love your suggestion
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (07.29.16)
Perhaps that's act 1 of the rebuilding of the THIRD TEMPLE?
17. What a joke !
Gabe   (08.01.16)
There has never been a Palestinian Nation in History and chances are, there never will be one. Jordan didn't want to keep its migrant population beyond the River, so
it has dumped them, abandoned them and let Israel and the UN to look after them.
There will be no solution to this situation without the goodwill of Egypt and Israel.
Perhaps even King Salman would show his generosity.
