Ahmed is a dentist living in Australia.
His life began as a Palestinian Arab in Jericho thirty years ago. The best student in his school, he concentrated on his studies refusing to run around the streets with his classmates. At age seventeen he left home, crossed the border and enrolled at the University of Jordan. Upon graduation he migrated to Australia.
Life is good for Ahmed. His wages are high. He drives a BMW and in three years has already placed a deposit on his own house. Next month he will be travelling to Europe for a holiday. He is now essentially an Australian Arab. I asked him a while ago if he would be going back to Jericho to visit and he quickly answered: “Never!”
This young man has found a solution for himself, an answer for one person to the Palestinian Arab conflict with Israel where death is preferred to life. The issue that he has solved is the opposite to the one where a whole population of Palestinian Arabs grow old with no prospects. These people have been hoodwinked by the United Nations which chooses to perpetuate a refugee problem generation after generation, using generous worldwide donations to fund UNWRA , The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees in the Near East. UNWRA has funded schools, provided food, medical attention and paid wages to keep millions of unsettled so-called "refugees" in camps in Israel, Lebanon and Syria for generations.UNWRA is basically interested in perpetuating itself and its employees.
At the same time these people are backed by leaders who are anti-Israel, teaching PalestinianArab children hate through their school curriculum, providing military equipment and encouraging warmongering. Even though they live within Israel in what they call "Occupied Palestine" they ally with Palestinian Arabs in Gaza and Lebanon and as a group their stated aim is to destroy the Israeli State. This is written into their constitution.
The job of the United Nations is to resettle refugees, not to encourage them to be political pawns in a game that makes their leaders wealthy, causing war, death and destruction. UNWRA’s finances have now dropped to a level whereby they cannot sustain this population, and rational solutions are needed.
Ahmed got out and is now living a great life. All other refugee groups in the world have been resettled. Only the Palestinian Arabs remain. The time has come to seek the solution to relocate the young and able who will be able to find work in Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and other countries where workers are needed and life is peaceful.
Why perpetuate a problem when there is an easy answer?
