If person is born in a certain place,ie: Gaza,and has never left,then how can they claim to be a refugee?

That's it

A foolish people for a wrecked landscape.

since we lost sharon, eitan, dayan, gur, orr, to name a few generals, israel has prused pacifist beilinist policies. no heros anymore. we are and have been led by cowards like peres, olmert and livni and now bibi. ynet of course doesn''t print any more talkbacks criitical of netanyahu because he appears to be follwoing herzog and withdrawal to 67 borders.

bibi hides behind wall, cannot back his tough talk, is persioinally fearful and projects that fear to all.his business experien e is extremely limited and he doesn't seem to kniow how to negotiate from strengh.

shapira says bennett is the man as you saw in the gaza war ye tynet and haaretz do everthing to cut bennett out. they endorse lapid who knows nothing about securtiy.

likud will go down the drain if they don't dethrone bibi and soon. saar is much better.

Prof. Friedman repeats something I hear often but as a non-Jewish Israeli I do not know what it really means. "If these “refugees” return into its boundaries, it will lead to Israel’s destruction as a Jewish state. " Why? Will we stop having Friday and Saturday as a weekend, having Jewish holidays as the national legal holidays? Everybody cries "end of the Jewish State" but nobody says why that would be true. What makes a Jewish State? An overwhelming Jewish majority? No Gentiles? More rights for Jews? Or is the fear that a large non-Jewish population will revolt and wipe out the Jewish population? Please be explicit; what is this fear really about?

applies to the 'right of return' of Jews, surely?

Agree.

The Arabs should have the right to return to their Arab countries of origin and be accepted as citizen

This means that "Palestinians" have nowhere to go as "Palestine" never was a country, which means they are Arabs and should return to where their parents/grandparents came from.

the arab league resolution of 1950 asked all arab countries to deny
citizenship and political and economic rights to all arab muslim
refugees from the land of israel.
this resolution was accepted by almost all arab league countries.
the resolution is a direct violation of refugee laws/treaties passed by
the united nations.
the arab palestinians who are still living in refugee camps in arab
countries are pawns in the struggle by the arabs to destroy
the jewish state of israel.

NO WAY TO WAIVE THE " RIGHT TO RETURN" EVEN AFTER THOUSANDS
OF YEARS...NO WAY. NO WAY
YOU WANT PEACE, THEN GIVE THE REFUGEES THE RIGHT TO RETURN.
PERIOD.

As it is with all things Muslim, it's all bull.

years of forced exile. These Pals ancestors left of their own volition. Their scions have zero claim to a right of return. There are 22 + Arab and moslem states for them to chose from. A return to Israel is not an option. They don't belong here and we will not have them here. Period.
