one key difference is that while Palestinians still want to go back to what's now Israel, I doubt that many if any Jews want to return to Egypt. After all, Israel offers them a home (as do a lot of other countries, including the US). In contrast, the Palestinian refugees are stateless. -- Jim Devine / "Segui il tuo corso, e lascia dir le genti."
