Why doesn't Israel give them citizenship, since Israel is chiefly responsible for their condition? Oh, wait, I forgot: the whole ethnic-nationalist state-building enterprise is imperilled by the 'demographic problem' already.; 20 September 2007 at 19:28

Keeping refugees in camps did nothing for a solution but prolonged the misery of the people.; 20 September 2007 at 19:57

I hope you'll visit my comrades blog and tell him I sent you:

Only to say... that Palestinians should enjoy full rights (including right to property, the vote and the right to work) enjoyed by other Lebanese.

The Armenians in Lebanon were given this right when they fled Turkish massacres... and it has not stopped them from remaining Armenian.

All of Lebanon's diverse peoples should be given equal rights, including the Kurds, Palestinians, Armenians, Bedou... and those born to a Lebanese mother and foreign father.; 27 September 2007 at 16:06
