actually, Jordan comprises about 3/4 of mandatory ‘palestine’
and was split off specifically for them
plus, the palis’ leaders opoenly stated that their new claim to be ‘palestinians’ was designed as a tactic to take more of Israel’s land (by the pretense that they aren’t ‘jordanian’ after all, even though that was their identity for many years
of course, the kink of jordan is from Saudi arabian origin but most of the people there are still ‘palestinians’ ... also the king does not want more troubles than he already has...
but yes, that land was set aside specifically for them...
(back when the previous king openly welcomed the Jewish return to their homeland)
No; the Phonystinians never claimed to be Jordanian. The “two-state solution” never included Jordan, remember.
That the two state solution hasn’t included Jordan is precisely the trick. The moslems have it just the way they want it. They get to keep 3/4 of “Palestine” completely off the negotiating table while trying to carve up and take key portions of the Jews’ smaller piece ,,,,,, ps: while it didn’t last because Britain denied the arabs their independence ,,, the Feisal -Weizmann treaty showed what could have been ,,,, with the moslems enjoying independence in the Arabian - Iraqi crescent and the Jews, welcomed home by king Feisal and enjoying independence in Israel. Too bad but the brits and other foreign powers just weren’t ready to leave that early so the whole beautiful deal including its peaceful relations and economic cooperation was consigned to the dustbin of history. And the moslem terrorists grew up instead
For California?
Ha! I would say that California is good for 3 states, divided equally from north to south. Once divided, sell the bottom state to Mexico and use the proceeds to build the wall.
Transjordan was never in the “Palestine” equation. Never mind the Jews being referred to as “Palestinians” before the Arabs got the idea to call themselves that from the Soviets.
Trying to say that the “two-state solution” must be Jordan and Israel won’t shut anyone up either. All goes back to 1947 and the Arabs’ refusal to have their own territories west of the Jordan, insisting on taking it all for themselves and no Jewish state in the equation (exactly as today).
Yes. So many moslems won’t respect or agree to let anyone else live now just like in the 40’s. It may take a thousand years for them to become civilized.
I call for Dems to STFU.
