The following is research published today from the MEMRI Special Dispatch Series and TV Monitor Project. Special Dispatch No. 4557—Jordan/Lantos Archives on Antisemitism and Holocaust Denial In a recent interview published in the London-based Arabic daily Al-Ghad, prominent Jordanian economist and businessman Talal Abu Ghazaleh, who is of Palestinian origin, outlined a plan for resolving the Palestinian problem. The basics of the plan were to continue the resistance until the occupation ends, and to return the Jewish Israelis to their countries of origin "based on legitimate [principles] of human rights and on all the international conventions and treaties on refugee rights." A somewhat similar idea was promoted by Jordanian journalist Hazem Mubaidhin, a columnist for the Jordanian daily Al-Rai. He focused on the issue of Jews who immigrated to Israel from Muslim countries. In two articles that were published in the Iraqi media – one in the daily Al-Madaand the other on the website Sumariyoun – he called to encourage these Jews to return to their countries of origin, and to grant them equal rights. He argued that this would benefit not only the Palestinian cause but also the Arab and Muslim states themselves, because it would promote democratic and pluralistic awareness in these states and generate favorable public opinion around the world.
