Elder of Ziyon kan soms wat cynisch klinken, maar dat is niet geheel ten onrechte. In onderstaand stukje wijst hij er terecht op dat de Palestijnen en hun apologeten wel altijd VN resolutie 194 aanhalen waar het de Palestijnse vluchtelingen betreft, maar de rest van de resolutie negeren. Zoals het deel dat over Jeruzalem gaat, of waarin Israel wordt erkend. De Arabische staten hebben de resolutie indertijd unaniem verworpen, wat het al een beetje raar maakt dat de Palestijnen hem nu gebruiken voor hun doeleinden, temeer daar het een Algemene Vergadering resolutie is dus sowieso geen internationaal recht. En inderdaad, men vermeldt er ook nooit bij dat er niet van een inherent ‘recht op terugkeer’ wordt gesproken, maar slechts in algemene zin wordt gezegd dat vluchtelingen die in vrede met hun buren willen leven, moeten kunnen terugkeren. Het betrof toen bovendien geen nakomelingen zoals nu, maar zopas gevluchte mensen. Zie ook dit artikel van Ami Isseroff dat verder gehakt maakt van het zogenaamde ‘recht op terugkeer’ van de Palestijnse vluchtelingen en hun miljoenen nakomelingen.

PLO reiterates "right of return" has nothing to do with statehood
http://elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2011/08/plo-reiterates-right-of-return-has.html
Zakaria Agha, member of the Executive Committee of the PLO, again stated what the PLO has stated clearly for years and what the West pretends is inconsequential: that even after the establishment of a Palestinian Arab state the PLO will not relinquish its demand that Israel be overrun with millions of so-called "refugees."
He bases this on UNGA resolution 194, which the Arabs love to misinterpret as saying that any Arab whose ancestors came from Palestine has the right to move into Israel, forever.
Notwithstanding the fact that General Assembly resolutions have no legal force, the constant reference to that resolution by the Palestinian Arabs is the height of hypocrisy.
If they believe to strongly that UNGA 194 must be adhered to by Israel, then they must also believe:
1. Jerusalem will never be the capital of "Palestine" because UNGA 194 says it is part of a separate territory that must be under UN control - including much more of "Palestine." than of Israel. Many Arab towns, and even all of Bethlehem, would not be part of "Palestine."
2. Mount Scopus would be part of Israel proper.
3. Descendants of Jews who were expelled from Gush Etzion. the Old City and other areas would be allowed to live in their ancestral homes. UNGA 194 just refers to "refugees," not "Arab refugees."
4. Free access to Jewish holy places in Judea and Samaria would have to be enforced.
For some reason, the PLO doesn't like to refer to those parts of UNGA 194. And, of course, they steadfastly refuse to remember that the resolution only refers to refugees who are willing to "live at peace with their neighbours."
Keep in mind that no Palestinian Arab leader is anxious for millions of Arabs now living in Lebanon, Jordan, Syria and elsewhere to "return" to "Palestine." Unlike the Zionist in the 1940s and 1950s who happily took in hundreds of thousand of Jews from the Diaspora, Palestinian Arab leaders are in no rush to help out their brethren who have been rotting away in camps for decades. To them, the descendants of "refugees" exist for only one purpose - to destroy Israel by "returning." Besides that, they couldn't care less about them.
Their hypocrisy - and their goal in erasing Israel - cannot be more transparent. And the world cannot be more blind as to their goals, even when they say it explicitly.
