In 1921, 77% of the British Mandate for Palestine (the land to the East of the Jordan river) was given away to create the Arab state of Transjordan - now Jordan. Some Palestinians also lived East of the Jordan river. Why have they never made any official claims to any part of that land and rejected all 2 State peace offers ?

Broadcaster and former England footballer Gary Lineker and Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan are among some 20 public figures to back a new campaign helping Palestinian students from Gaza take up their places at UK universities. The Scholarships for Gaza initiative, organised by education charity Phoenix Space, is raising money through a 10-day celebrity auction to cover tuition fees and living costs for students who have secured university offers but remain unable to leave Gaza without fully funded scholarships.

My 2 cents to the balestinian issue: After 1945 around 12-14 million germans were ousted from the eastern parts of Germany, around 500.000-600.000 died. my great-grandfather was thrown out of a moving refugee train by a polish soldier, never to be seen again. my grandmother was assaulted by russian and polish soldiers my grandaunt died as a child after a russian soldier deliberately threw her milk bottle on the ground and made her starve Near my hometown there was a mass suicide of 1000+ women and children because they knew what would happen when the russians would reach the city The conditions for the refugees in the first few years were terrible, there simply wasn't enough space for all of them in the war-torn remains of Germany. And still, they swallowed the pill. The things that happened happened. The next 20 years were the most successful in all of German history (at least in the west). In a matter of a few decades, the whole struggle of germans after 1945 turned from a major political issue into a distant historical memory that is told by elders, and it plays basically no role in the daily life of a German or in German politics. Whether or not that is a great thing is another question, but it shows what is possible when a society accepts their fate and works on progress instead of pointless political games. Gaza could have been a Singapore of the middle east, the west sent billions in aid there. The palestinan refugees in Lebanon, Jordan and other countries could have integrated into society and built up great countries. Instead, they chose the way of a satanist death cult and engaged in a pointless war that they already lost multiple times since 1948. Today, the average arab in Israel has more political participation than the average arab in Saudi-Arabia, Syria, Qatar, UAE and others.
