This has NOTHING to do with LAND
Here....the indisputable proof..
"In August 1977 Zahir Muhsein, a member of the Executive Committee of
the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and a military commander of
the PLO, in an interview with the Dutch newspaper, TROUW:
"The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct ‘Palestinian people’ to oppose Zionism.
"For tactical reasons, Jordan, which is a sovereign state with defined borders, cannot raise claims to Haifa and Jaffa, while as a Palestinian, I can undoubtedly demand Haifa, Jaffa, Beer-Sheva and Jerusalem. However, the moment we claim our right to all of Palestine, we will not wait even a minute to unite Palestine and Jordan”.
Tim adds:
People have forgotten the United Arab Republic. It was a state that existed from 1958 until 1971and was the union of Egypt and Syria. The hope was to create a new Caliphate encompassing the whole Middle East. Egypt and Syria saw little difference between their two respective countries. (Syria pulled out after a coup.) At the time the UAR argued there was essentially little difference b etween the Palestinians and the rest of the UAR. Funny how we've all forgotten that.
