Iran assails two-state solution for Palestinians

[The_Dude 1,142]

You don't even know what my agenda is Jordan didn't take my land.

Neither do you then, because it seems crystal clear from your postings.

Jordan didn't take my land.

What's the difference between Transjordan and the Palestine Mandate?

I think I realize what you're doing. You don't imagine any Palestinians as having definitive plots of land situated in any particular place that were systematically taken, do you? You only imagine the collective land taking because the story is always told as a collective concept. No, individually, we had plots and deeds and buildings, etc.. Mine, my family's, are in Israel, not Jordan, not Syria. Israel. My personal issue is with Israel, like yours would be if your government took your land under imminent domain and you wanted it back.

You just don't get it. Oh well, continue on with your personal vendetta, just don't try to portray it as objective. By the way, my family has been kicked off their land by a government, so don't pretend that you're the only one displaced in the history of civilization.

I have, unless by "look it up" you are really asking me to read a distorted account from a biased source that prove your side.

It's been common knowledge among modern Israeli historians since Benny Morris blew the lid off that propaganda:

So this isn't about the actual homeland, it's about vengeance.

Um... what ? It's about Palestinians' rights to their own property. The homes and farms and businesses which were seized from Palestinians are not in Jordan; they're in Palestine.

As usual, Zionism requires denial of reality.

I've never pretended to be the only one displaced. On the day we were taken from our homes and transported out of the city, several thousand others were also being evacuated, not to mention those who had been removed before us or after us. We weren't sent out of the country, but also weren't allowed to go home again, or stay in any other properties we owned. It was all taken away, stolen. Jordan didn't do that.

If this happened to Zionists, you'd be all weepy, but you don't give a damn about the other people involved. They're just folks with a rabid vendetta and an agenda to you. Well, thank God, there are people who know better.

Answer my question first. The original land that was part of the Palestine Mandate included mostly what is now Jordan. Why is there no movement to seek that land back as well?

I answered your question. You haven't answered mine.
