Huh?RE: Palestine Today
⁜→ P F Tinmore, et al,
This presentation is an argument for the Arab Palestinian Right to Return to include "descendants." It claims that the Israelis are trying to make an exception to the application of including the descendants; essentially excluding descendants.
BLUF: The definition used by the UNRWA in the standards for identifying those who are entitled to be registered in its Registration System and/or to
receive the Agency’s services, IS NOT the same as a legally adopted definition of a refugee.

◈ Consolidated Eligibility and Registration Instructions (CERI) ◈ The UNRWA in the standards for identifying those who are entitled to be registered in its Registration System and/or to receive the Agency’s services, IS NOT the same as a legally adopted definition of a refugee.
◈ Convention and Protocols Relating to the Status of Refugees ◈ "Convention endorses a single definition of the term “refugee” in Article 1" (see pages 14 - 16). This convention is the essentials pertaining to the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) task of supervising international conventions providing for the protection of refugees.
✦ NOTE: The "Convention shall not apply to persons who are at present receiving from organs or agencies of the United Nations other than the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees protection or assistance." (Example the UNRWA).
When such protection or assistance has ceased for any reason, without the position of such persons being definitively settled in accordance with the
relevant resolutions adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations, these persons shall ipso facto be entitled to the benefits of this Convention.
(COMMENT)
CERI is an instruction booklet, NOT an international agreement concluded between States in written form and governed by international law. It is the exception to the international law governing Refugee Protocols used around the rest of the world, → as signified by the member which have “ratified” and “accepted”, “approved” open “accession” → transmitted to the Secretariat of the United Nations for registration or filing and recording, as the case may be, and for publication. This is much different than the Convention and Protocols used elsewhere in the world. So the initial proposition from which the previous presentation attempts to inferred → follows a path to a false conclusion.
The international law definition for which the term “refugee” shall apply DOES NOT include a passage: "and descendants of Palestine refugee males, including legally adopted children, are eligible to register for UNRWA services." That would be ruled out by the Part II - Article 2 - International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights: → without distinction of any kind, such as race, color, sex, language, religion, political or another opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or another status.
The matter of decent is covered by Part I - Article 1 - International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination -
✦ In this Convention, the term "racial discrimination" shall mean any distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, colour, descent, or national or ethnic origin which has the purpose or effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal footing, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life.
The matter of the discrimination and exclusion of women is covered by Part I - Article 1 - Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women - which covers the fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person and in the equal rights of men and women,
✦ For the purposes of the present Convention, the term "discrimination against women" shall mean any distinction, exclusion or restriction made on the basis of sex which has the effect or purpose of impairing or nullifying the recognition, enjoyment or exercise by women, irrespective of their marital status, on a basis of equality of men and women, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural, civil or any other field.
I could go on further, but I think you get the drift. It is not the Israelis that are trying to establish an exception → but that of the Arab Palestinians who are fighting to establish an exception.
Most Respectfully,
