The Invention of Eternal "Refugeeism" Serves as a Tool for Israel's Destruction

(Ynet News) Daniel Friedmann - After World War II, Eastern European countries deported residents of German descent in numbers that exceeded by far the number of Arabs who fled the State of Israel's boundaries in the War of Independence. The exiled Germans were absorbed as immigrants in their new country and did not become refugees. The same thing happened when, following the Indo-Pakistani war, millions of people became refugees and were absorbed as immigrants in the places they arrived at within years. The Arab refugees from the War of Independence are a unique phenomenon. The Arab states they arrived in (apart from Jordan) refused to take them in, held them in refugee camps, which still exist, and convinced the UN to create a special agency for those refugees with a system in which "refugee" status is passed on from one generation to the next. The children, grandchildren and great grandchildren of the original refugees were all raised on hatred of Israel and have become an inexhaustible source for recruiting fighters to terror organizations. The invention of eternal "refugeeism" was aimed to serve as one of the tools for Israel's destruction and has become an obstacle to peace. The Palestinian leadership says it wants peace, yet it keeps supporting the right of return (which will lead to Israel's destruction). Peace with Israel and the right of return cannot live under the same roof. Prof. Daniel Friedmann served as Israel's justice minister from 2007 to 2009.
