US to resettle 1,350 Palestinians from Iraq
The Jerusalem Post ^

Posted on 07/09/2009 2:21:24 AM PDT by Yehuda123

It will be the largest-ever resettlement of Palestinian refugees into the US - and welcome news to the Palestinians who fled to Iraq after 1948, but who have had a tough time since Hussein was ousted in 2003. Targeted by Iraqi Shi'ites, the Palestinians, mostly Sunni Muslims, have spent recent years in one of the region's roughest refugee camps, Al Waleed, near Iraq's border with Syria in the west.

Can we send them to Marin County? I’m sure Queen Nancy would welcome them.

Of course, Dear Leader may see them as new community organizer recruits for ACORN. Given the latest poll numbers, ACORN’s going to have to really step up their efforts to steal the mid-term elections in 2010.

From an earlier thread:
Add THEM to the jihadis that are already here and the actual number would astound you. Most are illegal and more of the reason I was so dead set against the amnesty bill than the Mexicans. They are in all fifty (seven)/sarcasm states and being much more assertive now than they have ever been.

Beware this “president.” I cannot say it often enough or more urgently.

The Iraqis detest them so of course Hussein loves them. He’s so predictable.

Why aren’t they resettled with their compatriots elsewhere? Why here?

Why aren’t they going to their HOMELAND?

(Hussein probably decided the freebies would be better for them here.)

I’m sure they’ll bring their quaint customs with them.

The true Palestinians disappeared from the gene pool a long time ago.

Today's Palestinians are largely removed and displaced Arabians who claim Palestinian heritage.

They are no more Palestinian than if you and moved to Montana, set up camp, claimed to be Nez Perce, and started killing Montanans demanding our own state.

It is time we stopped playing their game and allowing them to rewrite history and murder for land.

Today's true Palestinians are the Old Testament's Philistines, and we all know what God said to do with them!

How long have these idiots been living in “refugee camps?” Two generations? And that’s the U.S.’s fault?

They are destroying this country on purpose. This will end badly. When it all explodes it is going to literally rip apart this country.

This is disgusting. They are not “refugees”. Why do we buy into this fiction about Arabs who used to live in British-controlled “Palestine”?

There is no law against idiots running the country.

This is proof positive.

Yes, like in Jordan, the REAL "Palestinian State" that already exists.
