In 2013, an event happened that is perfectly symbolic of the entire short history of Palestinian Arabs. 

AP reported:
The Palestinian president said he has rejected a conditional Israeli offer to let Palestinian refugees in war-torn Syria resettle in the West Bank and Gaza, charging it would compromise their claims to return to lost homes in Israel.

Abbas told a group of Egyptian journalists in Cairo late Wednesday that Ban [Ki-Moon] contacted Israel on his behalf.

Abbas said Ban was told Israel "agreed to the return of those refugees to Gaza and the West Bank, but on condition that each refugee ... sign a statement that he doesn't have the right of return (to Israel)."

"So we rejected that and said it's better they die in Syria than give up their right of return," Abbas told the group. 

About 4,000 Palestinians were killed in Syria. They died because of a principle they never signed off on. They weren't given a choice. Their "leaders" chose for them.

In 1948, when Palestinian Arabs tried to flee the war zone with their families, neighboring Arab countries were angry at them too. How dare they abandon their homeland! They should stay and fight! Egypt, and perhaps others, forced the men to go back into Palestine and do exactly that.

Again, the Palestinians weren't given a choice. Arab leaders told them what was best for them, saying they must adhere to a principle they didn't agree with. I'm sure that some of them never made it home. 


It is happening now. 

The Jordanian monarch, King Abdullah II, said today, Monday, that “Jordan has warned from the first day that we consider any displacement process a red line because, for us, this is the liquidation of the Palestinian cause.”

He added, during his meeting at Al-Husseiniya Palace, today, Monday, with the Chiefs of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and a number of retired security services directors, that there will be no solution to the Palestinian issue at Jordan’s expense, stressing that Jordan is confident in itself and is strong with the awareness of its people and the strength of its army and security services.

The Jordanian King reiterated that Jordan's strength politically, economically and security-wise is a strength for the Palestinian brothers, stressing that this country was built with the determination of its people, and it is the responsibility of all of us to give priority to its highest interest and protect it.

The Jordanian King praised the cohesion of the internal front, calling for not paying attention to the voices that try to keep us away from serving and defending our brothers, and stressing that the Kingdom stands with the Palestinian people in their steadfastness on their land.

He expressed his pride in the Jordanian Armed Forces - the Arab Army, and the security services in defending the homeland, stressing his confidence in their ability and readiness.

Abdulah is saying that letting Palestinians die in Gaza is preferable to saving their lives - because of a very important principle of not letting them leave their land. Moreover, he adds another principle: Jordan's strength is something that helps the Palestinians, and Jordan is their best friend. 

Oh, and by the way, if any Palestinians don't adhere to these wonderful principles and manage to try to enter Jordan, there's an army that is ready to shoot them. 

Did you get all that? Abdullah is saying that Palestinians must die because that way Jordan will remain strong enough to remain a good ally of Palestinians. 

Jordan took in some 1.3 million Syrian refugees during that war, and they didn't refuse them because of worries about how a weaker Jordan might not be able to help Palestinians. They weren't concerned that by going to Jordan they would lose their Syrian identity. In fact, the 2 million Palestinian citizens of Jordan also are reminded that they are not really Jordanians but Palestinian. They still get many services from UNRWA rather than the kingdom. 

Palestinians have been given the same message, loud and clear, for 75 years: they cannot inconvenience other Arab nations, or even their own leaders. But the reason is always the same: it is for their own good.
