The Palestinians, how they’re treated, and what they’re doing, is a region-wide phenomenon. I’ve been talking a little online to a Lebanese-American woman living in the Bay Area who is really unhappy about the way Palestinians in Lebanon are treated—they can’t own land, which is where all this business with illegally building wherever they can comes up.

But there’s no real international pressure on anyone but Israel to fix things.

This is what struck me and I’m glad you said something. I’m disappointed I got no responses while this article was up for 12 hours before you posted (thanks btw!).

The Arabs from Gaza (very specifically mentioned in a number of articles I’ve been reading on the subject) are a pain in the ass to everyone. To Lebanon, to Egypt and to Jordan. They’re no-goodniks, they’re violent and unreasonable, yet it’s no one’s problem but Israel? No one has an ounce of criticism for any Arab nation who truly oppresses them, puts them in tent camps, denies them school and healthcare. Their Arab “brothers”. And meanwhile, Jews are STILL working to give them a state. When has Egypt, Jordan or Lebanon ever worked for giving them a state??

They are treated like trash, exactly as the mufti said, in all of the M.E. For what reason? For nothing? This mufti lost his cool, said “screw it” and just let it fly. Arabs don’t generally attack each other like this in public so the article quite shocked me. But clearly, the man had enough and couldn’t even look at them any longer.

We can’t go back, what’s done is done, but if the Arab nations hadn’t attacked Israel in 67, the desperate “refugee” problem would not have grown to these unmanageable proportions.
