What other countries have had this situation?

Reader comment on item: "Eventually, All Humans Will Be Palestine Refugees"

Submitted by stanley b (United States), Feb 21, 2012 at 18:22

I would like to hear of other examples of a country under continuous international pressure to accept back the dubious and ever growing numbers of inhabitants after a war was won and the territory determined. Not only did most of the original arabs leave of their own accord, they did not return and are being kept in perpetual limbo by their arab host countries used as pawns to manipulate Israel into losing her Jewish majority. What other country in the world has faced such a ridiculous situation, let alone returned land. Let India return Kashmir, let Spain return Andalusia, etc. There is only one country in the world that welcomes Jews, they were evicted from Europe, Russia, all arab countries. and there are precious few left. When will the international community say 'enough'?
