In an article titled “An Alternative Deal” in the Jordanian government daily Al-Rai, Salah Jarrar, Jordan’s former minister of culture and former vice president of the University of Jordan, came out against the Middle East peace plan that the Trump administration is promoting, known in the Arab world as “the Deal of the Century.”
He wrote that this deal reflects nothing but the weakness of the Arabs and the arrogance of Israel and the United States, who wish to impose upon the Arabs a humiliating solution that meets none of their demands and restores none of their rights.
Part of that, he said, should require that all the Jews who came to Israel after 1917 Balfour Declaration and their descendants return to their countries of origin “without taking anything with them.” The Palestinian refugees, he continued, will return to their homes, and the United States and Britain will compensate the Palestinians and the Arabs for the “damage” caused by the occupation and for hosting the Palestinian refugees.
He added that even if this plan does not seem feasible today, the Arabs must persist in making these demands, for these are their rights, and they will eventually attain them.
