and what was this low or not offered amount again that was rejected?Quote from dddooo:
I'll repeat it once again for you: Just because the amount was not discussed or was discussed and is confidential does not mean that it was the sticking point. If it was the sticking point you would have heard about it from Arafat himself, every member of his team, every reporter, every newspaper, every anti-Israeli web site and every antisemite. The offer was rejected by Arafat in principle, not because they could not agree on the amount.
PS I showed you that the offer was indeed made, it's your turn to demonstrate that it was rejected because the amount was low. That's your assertion and the burden of proof is therefore on you. Without any credible evidence to support your claims you're grasping at straws trying to defend an indefensible position.
As expected you've failed to provide even a shred of evidence that Arafat's rejection had anything to do with the amount offered. He never claimed that, no one else besides you ever has either in which case the conventional version that he rejected the very idea of compensation in lieu of the right of return stands.Quote from 2cents:

In my view they are not entitled to collect a penny but in order to resolve the issue once and for all $50,000 - $100,000 per refugee to help resettle them in new countries and start new lives would be more than appropriate (I am probably being too generous).Quote from 2cents:
why don't you save yourself some time and tell us what a proper offer would be in your view...
He lived for several years after the summit and he never claimed that his rejection had anything to do with the amount of compensation. No member of his team (and most of them are still alive) has ever claimed that either. You're the only one.Quote from 2cents:
well he is dead now if my sources are accurate...
