The "Law of Return", does it allow the return of the Palestinians to their homeland?

Question

I know that Israel is a democratic country.

So laws can not be tailor made to fit the needs of some sect but not the other. Am I right?

Answer 1

No. It only applies to persons descended from persons who once practiced Judaism. Christians and Muslims need not apply.  

Answer 2

im sorry to write this but the zions want the land so they make the rules difficult. if ur not an american citizen chances r they will kick u out and take ur home.

Answer 3

What in your opinion is their homeland, and were does it say so.

And anyway if it was, why would 70 and 80 year olds want to leave America and Europe and start a new life there.  Their mud huts are long gone.

Answer 4

It should not, the palestinian refugees are not real refugees. They are arabs who obeyed their leaders in 1948 to annihilate Jews or leave Israel with a promise of swift victory annihilating Jews. Also, for real refugees, refugees status does not pass to the next generation. However, for palestinians this does and they also got their very own UN agency.

Answer 5

The "Law of Return" allows both Jews and Palestinians to return to their RESPECTIVE STATES--the Palestinians should have the Right of Return TO THE WEST BANK WHERE THEIR STATE WILL BE, but it's for THEIR GOVERNMENT to give them that right--NOT Israel which is A DIFFERENT AND SEPARATE INDEPENDENT STATE.

Answer 6

the "palestinians" have no right to return to israel, as israel was never theirs, it belongs to the jewish people.

Palestinian Arab nationalism is largely a post-World War I phenomenon that did not become a significant political movement until after the 1967 Six-Day War and Israel's capture of the West Bank.Palestine was never an exclusively Arab country, although Arabic gradually became the language of most the population after the Muslim invasions of the seventh century. No independent Arab or Palestinian state ever existed in Palestine. When the distinguished Arab-American historian, Princeton University Prof. Philip Hitti, testified against partition before the Anglo-American Committee in 1946, he said: "There is no such thing as 'Palestine' in history, absolutely not.Jewish independence in the Land of Israel lasted for more than 400 years. This is much longer than Americans have enjoyed independence in what has become known as the United States. In fact, if not for foreign conquerors, Israel would be 3,000 years old today.

Answer 7

Deleted Answer: Will Yemen or Morocco allow me to go back to my homeland? that's where my great grandparents were born, they came to the land of Israel and helped build it because they couldn't take living in these countries who were so hostile to Jews.

If we allow bloody murderers to enter our country will I be able to go back to Yemen or Morocco, live there safely and have all my great grandparents former property?

The United Nations said the Jews can have a state on three silvers of desert so that their people can have a refuge in this world. The day you will realize that Israel is the Jewish refugee camp from all over the middle east and Europe we will be one step towards peace.

The only difference between us is that we built a life here while you built and keep building a death machine.

Answer 8

no, you're not. any country can set its immigration policies any way it wants, and dozens of countries allow people of certain kinds in.

if you look at the wikipedia page (below), you'll see many countries with similar policies. if your grandparents were finnish, you can move to finland and become a finnish citizen, even if you were born elsewhere.

all palestinians, jews and arabs, were invited to stay and build the nation of israel. many arabs stayed and their descendents form a sizable population in israel, as full citizens with full civil rights.

those who left may regret it 60 years later, but their decision was made.

laws for residents and citizens of israel do not discriminate based on religion or national origin (compare that to the apartheid laws in arab countries like saudi arabia, where non-muslims have no rights).

Answer 9

No. you are wrong .
