It is apparently perfectly acceptable to require that Palestinian lands be Judenrein, free of Jews.  We (our administration) are even pressuring Jews NOT to build within the borders of  Jerusalem.

It would be unconscionable to allow the Jews in Israel to make any of Israel free of Palestinians? There are 1.5 million Palestinians living in Israel as citizens.

Yet Jordon is revoking the citizenship of  thousands of  Palestinians ” to avoid a situation in which they would be “resettled” permanently in the kingdom   ”  Jordan is probably the most tolerant of any of the Arab  countries toward the Palestinians: at least they are allowed to become citizens. (James Taranto WSJ)

But  wait;  King Abdullah’s Queen Rania is of  Palestinian descent.  Will she be stripped of her citizenship?

Is this not a parallel  of the story of Purim where Persian (Iranian)  King Ahasuerus is lobbied  by the evil Haman to kill the Jews but they are saved by the Jewish Queen Esther and Mordecai?

Jordon was created in the 1920’s from a significant portion of Palestine that the British set aside for the Jewish Homeland.  One could reasonably argue that the Palestinian homeland was established then.  But tribal differences have kept Jordon from being recognized as such.
