A statement by Ambassador Abdullah:
Palestinian refugees would not become citizens of the sought for U.N.-recognized Palestinian state, an issue that has been much discussed.
“They are Palestinians, that’s their identity,†he says. “But … they are not automatically citizens.â€
This would not only apply to refugees in countries such as Lebanon, Egypt, Syria and Jordan or the other 132 countries where Abdullah says Palestinians reside. Abdullah said that “even Palestinian refugees who are living in [refugee camps] inside the [Palestinian] state, they are still refugees. They will not be considered citizens.â€
The Palestinian Liberation Organization would remain responsible for refugees.
Moreover, the new state won’t provide these residents with any services: It expects UNRWA – or, more accurately, the American and European taxpayers, who provide the bulk of that organization’s funding – to continue providing their schooling, healthcare, welfare allowances, etc.
So almost half of all the Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip will not be citizens of the state that demands to be created in order for these same people to have a state.

Can the God of Allah take care of the Muslim refugees …. Where do “moderate” Muslim/Islams weigh in on this?
Make support by American and European taxpayers for the refugee camps conditional on the creation of rule by law so refugees learn they have legal rights that come from the God of the Jews and Christians … if not from Allah …Â
It’s  time that the United Nations was moved out of New York and rotated to various capitals around the world  based on random selection.
This  might make for a whole different cast of characters showing up to vote depending on where the U.N. is holding meetings.  Â
