As long as the Palestinians and Arabs love their incompetent, wealthy and corrupt leaders, I don't see any answer for Arab poverty and misery. As I was saying before , after WWII there were over 100mil refugees created around the world , and in the original plans for Jewish settlements in the ME , the Pal's were offered 85% of that land over there . Now with all the $Billions that the Arabs and Gulf States spend to prop up their little Dream-palace religion , they could have long before easily have set up a state for their Palestinian brothers who are virtually the last people since WWII to remain "homeless". They were given a state anyways and they completely blew it . The real value of the Palestinians is in maintaining this orphan status and percieve themselves as perrennial victims to be used time and again as a rallying point and cry of --->Jhiad , for the real cause of the total destruction of the Jews , and maintaining totalitarian control of their holy sandpits . Historically the Jews inherently always had a claim to some portion of that land ....especially after the The Holocaust which was why Israel emerged and the reason of it's birth. Anyone of conscience and of sane values , whether secular or religious backgrounds could easily see the fairness in this . But the Arabs have a vision of their own form of petty totalitarianism , and the Jews are too successful now. Yet these babies in the Middle East won't be satisfied until they bring on another Holocaust on themselves and everyone else because of some twisted view of their religious superiority and God-given authority , and Holy War & Jhiad/Infitadas. They fear modernism above all things . .... because of a book of bad poetry written by some illiterate epileptic shizophrenic , who was himself corrupt and ruthless ... 1300yrs ago. How many Plaestinians are there , and how long have they been perrrenially homeless while their Arab brothers have taken in easy Billions from oil and living lavishly ?
