Freezing Palestinian Myths
(Canadian Jewish News) Gerald Steinberg - Palestinian myths of victimization have been the major obstacle to peace for more than 60 years.

The Arab defeat on the battlefield was followed by the entirely fictitious claim to a "right of return" as refugees from illegal wars for which the Arabs themselves were responsible.
