Why? They are fellow Arabs, there’s nothing special about the Palestinians.

Their only value to the Arab world is their ability to cause problems for Israel.

In a few years, they’ll only be able to cause problems for Israeli robots.

I’m not sure but the ragheads think the paliscum are sleazy....lol.
Remember after the Gulf war the paliscum arrested and just disappeared....thousands of them were rounded up.

Isn't that why they liked the creation of "Palestine"? A dumping ground for their Arab deplorables.

The Saudi Prince asked Abbas to pay him a visit - it didn’t go well for Abbas ...

The “Palestinians” are a sort of non-existent group created by leftist forces solely for political purposes. Most of them were originally Lebanese, technically speaking, but Lebanon actually doesn’t want them back because they have been raised to be completely ignorant, dysfunctional political tools who are useless to any civilized country.

Now that a Shia Muslim is no longer in charge of the US and Trump is being firm and just laying the cards on the table, I think the Arab nations simply want to get out of this bottomless Palestinian pit and get on with their lives. Nobody wants to support the “Palestinian project” anymore - except for the non-Arab ME Muslim nations, such as Iran and Turkey, who have their own thing going and think that the “Palestinians” will be the driving wedge.

Oops, I meant Sunni Muslim - Obama’s African and Indonesian roots were Sunni.

That would explain an awful lot.

According to the CIA World Factbook, the Middle East consists of roughly 6,193,976 sq km of land.

Of that, Israel occupies 20,770 sq km, or just .34%.

Turkey - 769,632 sq km or 12.4%.

Lebanon - 10,230 sq km or .17%.

Egypt - 995,560 sq km or 16%.

Syria - 183,630 sq km or 2.96%.

Jordan - 88,802 sq km or 1.43%.

Iraq - 438,317 sq km or 7.08%.

Saudi Arabia - 2,149,690 sq km or 35%.

The West Bank - 5,860 sq km or .09%.

Total Arab control of the Middle East: 99.66%

So why are Jews and Israel always the ones being asked to give up "land for peace"?

It never occurred to me that the Arabs hate the Pali's.

There are plenty of places the Palestinians could go if there weren’t already Arabs there who don’t want them there. Why should the Israelis take people the Arabs don’t want?

[Arabs there who don’t want them there]

Dave Hunt (RIP) noted that Kuwait deported about 300,000 Palestinians. He wondered where the world outcry/United Nations outcry was on THAT one. Obviously he know it was all about being a thorn in Israel’s side.

Riots in the West Bank and Gaza resulted in six demonstrators being killed...However, it would have been much worse if Hamas and the Palestinian Authority had mobilised their own forces.

You mean like, thousands of them would have gotten what they deserve, instead of only six?

We’ll see if Trump has indeed cut the Gordian Knot.

Trump isn’t the cause of the massive culture shift, but he is riding it like an expert surfer. Obama made Iran the top dog in the region. Obama backed ISIS, or at least did nothing to stop them. The rest of the Middle East is scared spitless of Iran and that ISIS might get a foothold in their territory. Saudi Arabia is so threatened that they are working a UGE culture change, including women driving, which is a much bigger deal than giving women the vote here was. The Saudis are starting a free trade city involving key players and close to Israel. Saudis have been in “secret” meetings with Israeli officials that have several times been leaked to the Israeli press. The recent missile attacks by “Yemini” forces on the Saudi capital have sent shivers through the region.

What is happening, or, in this case NOT happening in Palestinian territory is directly related. This is the biggest thing to happen, or, not happen, in the Middle East in my lifetime. If the world and Saudi Aribia pull off the culture change hinted at by the recent arrests in Saudi Arabia we could be looking at the most significant thing to happen to Islam in 1400 years.

No wonder Turkey and Iran are upset. Reforming Islam would take away much of their power.

Well, when one goes to Israel and sees the Pali side versus the Israeli side, you’d fully understand why no other Arab country would want them. The Pali side makes south Detroit look like heaven.
