that the responsibility for the refugees situation lies not only with the Lebanese government, but also with Israel, other countries in the region and the international communityIs this news? No. Noone is surprised that Amnesty, as usual, thinks that Israel is to blame. Somewhat surprising is that they for once blame not only Israel.
Now I just wonder...what exactly is Israel expected to do? What should Israel have done differently in the past?
Scenario 1) Israel is expected to let Palestinian refugees return to Israel. The original 726.000 refugees have become millions. Hence the effect of this scenario is that the Jewish state is turned into yet another (the 57th I believe it is) Muslim state, and thereby we're back to square one - Jews in minority are persecuted for religious reasons. Precisely that was the reason that Jews fled to Israel 100 years ago.
Justice demands that the Palestinian refugees either are allowed to return or get compensated for lost property. Of course! But it is about time for the world in general, and the racist left in particular, to view the conflict in its entirety. It didn't originate with the expulsion of Arabs in 1948, it goes back much further in time than that.
There are three refugee problems in this conflict:

There are three refugee problems in this conflict:
- Jewish refugees from Europe. Over two millions.
- Jewish refugees from the Arab world and Iran. Approx. 900.000.
- Arab refugees from Israel. Approx. 726.000.
All of these have been forced to leave all their belongings and all of them should have the same rights, and those who claim that justice is the way to peace (which I unfortunately believe is an illusion) should realize that all these rights in that case must be satisfied simultaneously. Israel can only gain from justice being made, but it's not going to happen. My fathers parental home in Hungary was plundered when his family was deported to Auschwitz, and he never received a penny compensation. In Poland the value of the real estate alone, that was stolen from Jews during the war, is estimated to $30 billions. Not a nickle there either. In the Arab world huge assets were confiscated, especially in Baghdad. Guess how much compensation has been paid from there...
Scenario 2) Israel is to blame because they should never have expelled the Palestinians. After 28 years of Arab terror, in the middle of a fierce war, in which the Arabs brag about the bloodbath they're about to make, when the largest Jewish city (Jerusalem) is surrounded and besieged and the Jews there lack necessities, when Jews are thrown out of Hebron and Gaza, when Israel for its mere survival is forced to depend on voluntary crews flying in disassembled howitzers and Messerchmitts from Czechia, then you're expected to...well, what? To set up courts and try each Arab individually?
And why war in the first place, you think? The brown (after the colour of the nazis shirts) left is fond of picturing the UN partition plan of 1947 as being deeply unfair. The Jews were given 55% of Palestine. Lucky for the brown left, not many people have the energy to read the partition plan. The Jewish state (not the Jews) was allotted 55%, of which most was (and is) unarable desert. But the important thing is that no land at all was to change owners. The borders were drawn with respect to demography. Arabs in Israel were to stay and keep their land, Jews in the Arab state were to stay and keep their land. Does that sound unfair? Maybe the Arabs were afraid that the Jews would treat them the way Jews were treated in Arab countries...
So forgive me for not being upset when Amnesty reports:

...there are families of 10 who are forced to live in a single room. The homes often consist of barracks out of corrugated sheet metal without proper roofs, ventilation or sanitary facilities.Here is a picture of a Jewish refugee camp in Israel in the 50s:
I mentioned in an earlier post that Israels former president, Moshe Katsav, is a refugee from Iran. He lived in a tent camp like this, and his baby brother, Zion, drowned two months old, when the tent camp was flooded. But who knows about such things in Sweden? Hardly anyone, because Jews are never refugees in the eyes of our leftist media.

Surrounded by idiots? Sorry to say that the author of that post is a part of the problem, not a part of the solution. It's so nice that Jews have found a place to escape religious persecution. Who cares about these refugees? They are not persecuted because of their ethnicity or religion. They simply like it. They are happy that Jews have their place to live. Sure. Rogntudjuu!
