| There is a disingenuous sleight of hand about the entire concept of ?right of return.? Palestinians, the broader Arab world, and their supporters who have asserted this ?right? have invoked, in particular, UN General Assembly resolution 194, passed in December, 1948, in the wake of the Arab-initiated 1947-48 war. The resolution states, among its other provisions, ?refugees wishing to return to their homes and live at peace with their neighbors should be permitted to do so?? But the central provision of 194 is its call for creation of a Conciliation Commission and ?establishment of contact between the parties themselves and the Commission at the earliest possible date? to seek agreement by negotiations [and thereby reach] a final settlement of all questions between them.? How did occur the ?refugee problem? : http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2008/03/big-arab-lie-part-i.html |
