FYI most people that left Haifa owned their home and land. Really? Thanks, that's the answer to question 1. You're telling us that over 50% of the original Pal refugees were property owners (or their families)? That's something. Better answer than just dismissing the question as silly... So who or what in Haifa administered and upheld land rights? Hopefully not the Brits..... And most refugees still have the deeds for their homes and land. Also still carry the keys for their homes. This of course is impossible since most of the original refugees are dead. But I guess you're telling me that more than half of today's refugees are membes of extended families that are descended for a guy who had a deed, and presumably those deeds are still in possession of someone in the family. Do you really believe this? Is there some reason they don't have a massive Pal Land Rights Museum where these deeds would still be owned by the descendents, but on public display for all to see? Elroy, you are making light of a serious situation that held dear to people hearts. I'm just trying to understand your position, and pointing out where it doesn't make any sense to me. If you make what seems ridiculous claims (people should be able to live where their grandparents lived because.......just because) I'm going to point out that it is ridiculous. Do you understand why they sacrifice their lives for their homes and land. Nope, why they choose their present path rather than building Gazastan I do not understand one bit. You have no sense of pride of your home, land nor country. Even though the Bears are on a 3 game losing streak, we're still doing better than when I was a student, so I'm upset with how the season is turning out after such a promising start, but I'm still proud to be a Bear! That may make no sense to you, but whatever.
