Laurence Uniglicht of the Israel Hasbara Committee observes that the US House of Representatives resolution HR 185, putting Jewish refugees on an equal footing with Palestinian refugees, puts an end to the kind of 'peace' negotiations in which the Arab side can demand anything they want:
"Kudos to the U. S. House of Representatives for introducing and recently approving H. R. 185, informing a mostly uninformed nation and world that Jews, Christians, and other ethnic groups were booted out of Arab regimes over the years and forced to become refugees.
"Thus they implicitly deserve as much (if not more) recognition than so-called Palestinians who manipulate the ’R word’ as if it belongs to them exclusively. Indeed, per this honorable piece of legislation, yet to be approved, perhaps modified by the U.S. Senate and signed into law by the U.S. President, “approximately 850,000 Jews have been displaced from Arab countries since the declaration of the State of Israel in 1948.”
"Egad! That’s 100,000 more ‘refugees’ than claimed by so-called Palestinians, yet somehow, someway, all of those Jewish folks shed the self-defeating stigma of refugee status, migrated to other nations including Israel, mostly picked themselves up by their own bootstraps, worked hard, beget generations of productive children, some even becoming Nobel laureates, while those ‘poor humiliated’ Arab waifs, claiming to be tossed out of Israel albeit if truth be told mostly were persuaded to leave by Arab invaders intent on annihilating the Jewish State at her inception."
