"Palestinian" has come to mean anyone who lived in Palestine for two years (1946-1948). That was the requirement to sign up for aid. Anyone could walk in and say he came from there. How could it be disproved? Logic tells you many signed up for the aid who weren't refugees. And their descendents are still receiving aid. "Palestinian" also now means anyone who is descended even partly from someone who claimed to once live in Palestine for two years. By now there are people who claim to be "Palestinians" who've never been there, whose parents have never been there, but who have one grandparent who claimed to have lived in Palestine for two years in order to get on the UN aid lists. I think you should worry about "Palestinians" getting the right of return after you've extended to the Siletz Indians the right to return to the stolen land you keep as your personal nature preserve. They might want to sell some timber off there. Or run some livestock on it. Even eat some of those juicy animals that live on it. Why should they be deprived of the use and occupation of their land to benefit some European like you?
