Israeli MK, AIPAC behind Senate bid to cut total number of Palestinian refugees

Jews could not return immediately. What are you talking about. Give it a rest for about 2000 years, and then maybe we could talk about it.

It's their country, not yours Jasper.

The Palestinians seem to be special. Why? For every other group of people, there is no such thing as a second generation refugee. If someone is a refugee, it doesn't extend to their children. Their children will be citizens of the country in which they are born (and will get all the rights owing to them) and will lose their refugee status. However, for some reason the Palestinians seem to be more special than any other type of refugee in that their status extends through the generations. Due to this there are now millions of Palestinian refugees whilst only a fraction of these people were around at the time of 1948 and 1967. Why are they better than the Sudanese refugees? Somali refugees? Afghanis? Etc etc

Because, in order to become a citizen of the country you're born in, there's the pre requisite of there being a country, which Israel and the US won't allow

The point is that millions of the Palestinian refugees were born in Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, the US, and other countries in the world. The majority were born post 1948 and post 1967 in those countries. As such, they should be Egyptian, Lebanese etc, just like any other refugee group's children would be. However, the Palestinians seem to deserve special treatment which makes them and their descendants Palestinian refugees. That's why the number of Palestinian refugees grow daily which causes unnecessary financial burden on the countries donating tax money to the UNWRA. It also puts these 'refugees' at a disadvantage as they cannot be citizens of the country they were born in, refuses to give them rights, job prospects etc.
