How the Arabs treat their own

The descendants of 'Palestinians' who purportedly fled from the Haifa area during Israel's 1948 War of Independence will be 'resettled' in Canada and Sweden next week after being trapped on the Iraqi-Syrian border since Saddam Hussein's downfall. Note how the media ignore why these people are 'refugees' in the first place and does not even consider the possibility that the Arabs ought to be responsible for them.
Informed sources in AL-Tanaf camp in the buffer strip between Iraq and Syria,that Sweden will receive 11 Palestinian refugees trapped since the two years in the camp which includes 725 Palestinians in its territory on 6/12/2008. [Count 'em: 11 refugees who have been trapped for two years. Out of 725 in this camp alone. CiJ].

added the sources who declined to give her name,that Canada will receive 14 Palestinian families also from AL-Hull camp,which includes 345 Palestinians in the Hasakah Syrian desert on the triangle Syria-Iraq-Turkey in its territory after ending the formal proceedings. [The way these people have children, 14 families could be close to 345 people. Or maybe it isn't. CiJ]

It should be noted,that Swedish delegation and a delegation of the High Commissioner for Refugees of the United Nations (Department of resettlement) visited the Tanaf camp last week,the two delegations met with 96 palestinians trapped in the camp to study the resettlement in the Kingdom of Sweden.

The Palestine Refugees in Iraq were targeted by the militias backed from Iran led to the death of more than 280 Palestinians and wounded and the expulsion of thousands of them at the AL-Waleed camp in the desert of Anbar,and the camp Tanaf in the buffer strip between Iraq and Syria,and the AL-Hull camp in the Hasakah Syrian desert and more than 33 foreign country after the Arab countries refused to receive them with the rejection (Israel) returned them to their lands in accordance with resolution 194 issued by the United Nations in 1948.
Note how it's blamed on Israel. No one has any expectation that Syria will take in its own Arab brethren. Let alone Iraq. But it wasn't Iran (a non-Arab country) that was after those 'Palestinians.' It was anti-Saddam Iraqis who hated the 'Palestinians' because they were Saddam's favorites.
The Palestinian community in Iraq dates from 1948, when a group of 5,000 people accompanied an Iraqi army unit operating in Palestine back to Baghdad after they were forced to flee from their homes, mainly from villages near Haifa, during the conflict that erupted from Israel's founding. [Let's just say that they were 'forced to flee from their homes' by their Arab brethren who told them they would come back after the 'victorious Arab armies' slaughtered all the Jews and leave it at that. CiJ] Additional Palestinians went to Baghdad after being expelled from Kuwait in the aftermath of the first Gulf War in 1991 [They were expelled from Kuwait because Yasser Arafat backed Saddam when he invaded Kuwait in August 1990. CiJ]. At the time of the American invasion of Iraq in March 2003, the total number of Palestinians in Baghdad was approximately 34,000.

The consequences of the American intervention proved disastrous for the Palestinians. As the communal violence and the insurgency grew, armed militias and even the government's own Ministry of Interior considered the Palestinians to be a community that lacked allegiance to Iraq and was perceived to have been protected by Saddam Hussein. They were no longer considered to be refugees but foreigners and their residency papers were not renewed. Palestinians who largely congregated in the neighborhood of Baladiyat in Baghdad were increasingly targets of violence, kidnapping, and death threats.
And in more than 60 years, no Arab Muslim country has seen fit to resettle these people (as Israel did for Jews expelled from Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Morocco, Tunisia, Yemen and other Arab countries). Instead, they are held hostage to the desire of the Arab dictators to maintain themselves in power and destroy the Jewish state.

Is it any wonder that these people are unwilling to reach any compromise? Unless they get an unfettered 'right of return' to Israel (which would be suicidal for Israel to give them), they believe (with good reason) that they will be stuck in 'refugee camps' in Arab countries immigrating to countries like Canada and Sweden in drips and drabs that will take centuries to resolve the issue.

Maybe the place to start to resolve the 'Palestinian' question is with the Arab countries that have held them hostage for more than 60 years?

I mentioned it the other day and peace really begins at home. The Arabs have a low regard for their value of their own people. So its not surprising they view Jews as being even less human in the grand scheme of things. We will have peace with them when they love their own children more than they hate Jews. That day hasn't arrived yet.
