Arab League prevents Arab "Palestinians" from naturalization in Arab countries?

[Ari Ben-Canaan]

More proof of what obstinate evil people the Arab "leadership" is.  More proof their only goal is to destroy Israel and not the welfare of "Palestinians".

^This site really does a good job of covering a wide aspect of Palestinian refugee problems in other countries, and the lack/prevention of naturalization.  There is really a lot of links here.

A Million Expatriates to Benefit From New Citizenship Law
P.K. Abdul Ghafour, Arab News
 

JEDDAH, 21 October 2004 — Expatriates of all nationalities are entitled to apply for Saudi citizenship and their travels abroad with re-entry visas will not disqualify them, press reports said yesterday quoting senior officials.

Nasser ibn Hamad Al-Hanaya, undersecretary for civil status at the Interior Ministry, said the executive bylaw for the Kingdom’s amended naturalization law would be ready within four months. “We will look into applications only after the executive bylaw is issued,” Okaz Arabic daily quoted Hanaya as saying.

He estimated that more than a million expatriates would benefit by the amended law, which was passed by the Council of Ministers on Monday. There are nearly 8.8 million expatriates, mostly Asians and Arabs, in the Kingdom.

“Going abroad on re-entry visas will not disqualify an applicant,” the official said referring to the condition that an applicant must have stayed not less than 10 years in the Kingdom continuously.

Referring to the job requirements mentioned by the new law, Hanaya said holders of degrees in medicine, computer science and other branches of science and technology would be given priority. “The jobs required by the country will change in accordance with new developments,” he pointed out.

The amended law increased the applicants’ period of stay in the Kingdom from five to 10 years in order to help them acclimatize with the country’s culture and traditions and interact positively with members of society, he explained.

Spelling out the clauses for revoking citizenship, Hanaya said a person would lose his Saudi citizenship if he works for the interest of another country or commits treachery or plots against the country or joins a foreign army or gains citizenship of another country without taking prior permission from Saudi authorities.

Shubaily ibn Majdoue Al-Qarni, chairman of the security committee which supervised amendments to the law, said Saudi citizenship would be open for all nationals working in the Kingdom. “The law does not aim at a particular nationality. On the other hand, it covers all expatriates in the country,” he told Al-Madinah.

But Al-Watan Arabic daily reported that the naturalization law would not be applicable to Palestinians living in the Kingdom as the Arab League has instructed that Palestinians living in Arab countries should not be given citizenship to avoid dissolution of their identity and protect their right to return to their homeland.

Diplomatic sources have estimated the number of Palestinians in the Kingdom at about 500,000. There are large concentrations of Palestinians in the country’s western, central, eastern and northern provinces.

The amended naturalization law has brought about six remarkable changes. It increased the period of stay of an applicant from five to 10 years and insisted that an applicant must be a professional required by the country. If a Saudi husband changes his nationality, his Saudi wife would not lose her nationality as was the case in the previous law.

The citizenship, according to the previous law, will be withdrawn if a person commits any crime related to morality or undermines security within five years after naturalization. In the new law the period has been extended to 10 years. For providing false information to get citizenship, an applicant will be jailed for two years and fined SR30,000, instead of SR1,000 specified by the previous law.

All this despite there being no such thing as a "Palestinian" by the admission of the Arabs themselves.

Palestine was never an exclusively Arab country, although Arabic gradually became the language of most the population after the Muslim invasions of the seventh century. No independent Arab or Palestinian state ever existed in Palestine. When the distinguished Arab-American historian, Princeton University Prof. Philip Hitti, testified against partition before the Anglo-American Committee in 1946, he said:

  "There is no such thing as 'Palestine' in history, absolutely not."5

Prior to partition, Palestinian Arabs did not view themselves as having a separate identity. When the First Congress of Muslim-Christian Associations met in Jerusalem in February 1919 to choose Palestinian representatives for the Paris Peace Conference, the following resolution was adopted:

    "We consider Palestine as part of Arab Syria, as it has never been separated from it at any time. We are connected with it by national, religious, linguistic, natural, economic and geographical bonds."6

In 1937, a local Arab leader, Auni Bey Abdul-Hadi, told the Peel Commission, which ultimately suggested the partition of Palestine: "There is no such country [as Palestine]! 'Palestine' is a term the Zionists invented! There is no Palestine in the Bible. Our country was for centuries part of Syria."7

The representative of the Arab Higher Committee to the United Nations submitted a statement to the General Assembly in May 1947 that said "Palestine was part of the Province of Syria" and that, "politically, the Arabs of Palestine were not independent in the sense of forming a separate political entity." A few years later, Ahmed Shuqeiri, later the chairman of the PLO, told the Security Council:
  "It is common knowledge that Palestine is nothing but southern Syria."8

Yes they do! This is in order to keep pressure on Israel and to persist in their opinion that they all have "a right to return" to Eretz Yisrael. This is only one of the strategies the Arabs hold on Israel. If they all became citizens of the countries they live in, they'd easily assimilate and in a few decades they'd even forget what "Filistin" is. Thus they keep them out of society, refugees, without citizenship, without work, without perspective. And these camels do not even notice that they are used as instruments in anti-Israel propaganda. They are nothing but "useful idiots".

[Historical Truth]

So much for "Muslim Brotherhood".

[Hyades]

So much for "Muslim Brotherhood".

This never existed. It has always been clan vs. clan and tribe vs. tribe. They were just "brothers" when they were fighting "infidels".

[Ben m]

personally i don't care.i just don't care about them.we need to destroy islam in both israel and outside israel.

[Ari Ben-Canaan]

The sickness of how Arabs treat each other is one more reason we need to hold fast and stick to Rabbi Kahane's plan to relocate the Arabs [w/ compensation if they go peacefully] and then annex the territories.  After that, Greater Israel!
