Hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refugees fled or were driven from their homes during the Israeli-Arab wars in 1948 and 1967. The fate of the estimated four million Palestinians living in refugee communities scattered around the Middle East remains at the heart of the conflict.

Frist off, pictures of humans are not aloud on this site I believe. Second... who started the 1948 wars? I believe it was the 7 Arab nations that attacked Israel...
Did Jordan or Egypt ever think about creating a Palestinian state when they owned the West Bank and Gaza Strip... nope. No one ever cared about the Palestinians until after they had no control over the territories.

What are you some kind of history revisionist?
Jordan became a country May 25, 1946.

Actually, I think Jordan became independent shortly after WW2. Egypt was already nominally independent after WW1 I believe. Either way, both countries fought Isreal in 1948.

As interesting as all this sounds, the subject matter at hand is not being discussed. Though you are posting information connected to the incident, it is not the primary topic, thus you are indeed off-topic and no doubt your posts shall be deleted.
In standard neanderthalic language: get on topic, ooga booga.

It is sad that the kids and the Palestinian people are being used by people who have political agendas against another country...

The British mandate over Transjordan ended on 22 May 1946; on 25 May, the country became the independent Hashemite Kingdom of Transjordan.
The information you provide to rebutle my arguments are completley false. Why don't you just decide to rewrite known history... If you didn't know about it... I guess it never happend. :heated:

Your logic makes absolutley zero sense.
If America controlled the Arab world... why did America not stop the Arabs from attacking Israel in 1948. If America 'controlled' Jordan and Egypt wouldn't they have just stopped them from attacking there ally?

Your points are making less and less sense (although you were right about the British general, although his position was rather less significant than you imply. The "army" was not led by Glubb, just the Jordanian Legion.)
Are you suggesting that it was therefore British
policy that the (Trans)jordanians join the 1948 attack on Israel (with Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Iraq), and that Jordan would not otherwise have done so?
Or indeed that Nasser in 1967 or Sadat in 1973 were 'controlled' by the Americans?!
