On the other hand there is not such a nation as Palestinians -- for the majority of Arabs, Palestinian are regarded as outcasts from their community like criminals and other types of scum bags. That is why they were and are held in refuge camps with no rights in Arab countries. Jordan expelled the PLO during the Black September killing over 25,000 of them.worldnetdaily.com tzemach.org Later they carved out Trans-Jordan - now Jordan from the Jewish Homeland for the Arabs to live in. The Arabs who live in Israel, West Bank and Gaza are living on land they grabbed from the Jews not the other way around.In 1974, the PLO (Palestine Liberation Organizaion) adopted the Plan-of-Stages: Stage 1: Through violent struggle, establish an "combatant national authority" over any territory that is "liberated" from Israeli rule. Stage 2: Use the territory of the national authority as a base for attacks on Israel. Stage 3: Provoke an all-out war to "liberate all Palestinian territory" -- that is, destroy Israel. ............................ "Peace for us means the destruction of Israel. We are preparing for an all-out war, a war which will last for generations." -- Yassir Arafat, El Mundo (Venezuela), February 11 1980 Also in 1994, Arafat wrote to groups opposing the Oslo Accords: "In order to obtain the goal of returning to Palestine, all of us sometimes have to grit our teeth. But it is forbidden that this harm the continued struggle against the Zionist enemy. Cooperation and understanding between the PLO and the rejectionist organizations is what will lead to the speedy retreat of Israel from the occupied territories in the first stage, until the establishment of a Palestinian state with its capital in Jerusalem. Only a state like that can then continue the struggle to remove the enemy from all Palestinian lands." http://www.tzemach.org/fyi/docs/words.htm The mistake many make is that they think Arabs deserve to have any part of land west of the Jordan River, this is an historic and factual mistake. NON OF THE LANDS WEST OF THE JORDAN RIVER BELONG TO ARABS!!! If the arabs want to redraw the borders set around W.W.I, then those borders must be adjusted from India to Mauritania on the Atlantic shores.
