Some perhaps, yet the powers that be, in their infinite wisdom, required only 2 years of residency - and I suspect they required little, if any, proof - to qualify for "refugee" status.
The temptation for potential "refugees" to cash in on "three hots and a cot" and the relief agency's desire to justify their existence and their budget, I'd say provides ample opportunity and motivation for fraud.
"Fraud" you say? Dare you overlook the most spectacular fraud of the twentieth century---the modern state of Israel? The vast majority of the native population were born there, easily confirmed in the predictable birth-rates from the period of the Ottoman transfer to the British takeover. But if you really want to talk "fraud" let's examine Israel's "right of return" that applies to Jews who've never set foot in Palestine, yet are accorded superior rights over the native population...let's address the welfare status of Israel...the artificial economy kept afloat by massive---and vastly under-reported subsidies...Israelis virtually invented fraud...
Blah, blah, blah.
Your rant only serves to prove that you know your defense of your "13 century" claim is lame.
Rather than try to deflect the conversation, let's just keep it on point:
the irrefutable fact that only 2 years of residency was required - and perhaps little, if any, proof - to qualify for "refugee" status.
The temptation for potential "refugees" to cash in on "three hots and a cot" and the relief agency's desire to justify their existence and their budget provided ample opportunity and motivation for fraud. In fact, I'm confident that those who lived in the area, say Southern Syria or Jordan or Egypt, signed up just to create inflated facts-on-the-ground.
LOL the last thing your tiny, immobile mind should be focusing on is the qualifications for refugee status Mingus...were it not for the political pressure brought to bear on western leaders through the UN, this dirty little ill-gotten state would never have been accorded legitimacy or recognition...and you bark because the victims dare to seek address?
