Why did Syria and Lebanon kick the Palestinians out years ago? Why don't they give that land back to them?

?? I think you're confusing the PLO (the military/political/terrorist group) with a Palestinian stateless person. And Syria and Lebanon have never had Palestinian land to give back.

So, lets disregard that question!

The Palestinians are from Palestine. When the Israeli Zionists refused to let them return after the Israeli/Arab war, refugee camps were set up in adjoining countries including Syria and Lebanon. When Israel invaded Lebanon, their military leader, Ariel Sharon, the current PM of Israel today, looked the other way as Lebanese Christians attacked the Palestinian camp and raped and murdered thousands.

I thought there were still some refugee camps in Syria and Lebanon. However, it would not surprise me if the Syrians and Lebanese had kicked them out.

Its the ultimate irony......the world treats the Palestinians like the world once treated the Jews. You would think that might invoke some empathy among the Israelis but apparently not.
