How could the number of the Palestinian refugees grow 10 times since 1948?
The initial number of the Arab Palestinian refugees was approximately 750,000 people. It was 65 years ago and at least half of them have by now died of old age. But by some mystery, the number of those who call themselves "Palestinian refugees" is today about 6 MILLION people. How so? Very simple. By the UN regulations and norms, the status of a refugee is not inherited. It means that if your father was a refugee, you already are not. This law applies to ALL the refugees in the world: to more than 20 millions of Germans who became refugees after the WWII, to hundreds of thousands of Japanese, to 800,000 Jews who were robbed until their lingerie in Arab countries like Syria, Egypt, Lebanon-and then thrown out of these countries. But this law does not apply to the "Palestinian refugees". For them , the UN applied another - and absolutely unique- "technique". By this technique, a "Palestinian refugee" is any person "whose normal place of residence was Palestine between June 1946 and May 1948". This trick immediately converted into the " Palestinian refugees" all those hundreds of thousands of Arabs who emigrated to the Jewish Palestine from the neighboring Arab countries in 1935- 1948. If not for this trick, the initial number of the "Palestinian refugees" would be not 750,000, but hardly 200,000. Then, the UN declared that the "Palestinian refugees", maybe for their special and outstanding merits before the mankind, can INHERIT the status - and pass it to their children, grandchildren, wives, husbands, brothers, cousins... And now, 60 years later, we have 6 million of the so called "refugees" who are sure that the world must feed, teach, cure, dress and kiss them only because their grandparents fled Palestine 65 years ago.

What percentage of the world's refugees is made of Palestinians?
Important Note:The first thing that should be made clear is that "refugee" in the Palestinian case has a different definition than in all other cases. Palestinians inherit refugee status, even if they never fled anywhere in their lives as long as an ancestor did; this is defined by UNRWA. For all other peoples, refugee status terminates when the people are settled; this is defined by UNHCR.Numbers:It is estimated that between 30,000 to 50,000 of the original Palestinian refugees (e.g. refugee under the normal international UNHCR definition) are alive today. As for the special Palestinian UNRWA definition, there are an estimated 5 million Palestinian refugees (including 50,000 original refugees).Since the UNHCR tries to settle refugees (and then take them off the list), the current numbers indicate those who are not yet settled. The UNHCR estimates that there are roughly 18-19 million refugees. UNHCR also estimates that there are roughly 32-33 million Internally Displaced Persons or IDPs. An IDP is a refugee who is still within the borders of his home-country as opposed to "normal" refugees who have fled their home-countries. The reason that the number of IDPs is nearly twice the number of refugees is because the UNHCR is not allowed to help IDPs resettle in the same way that they can help refugees.If we take the 50,000 number for the amount of actual Palestinians who are refugees and do not count IDPs, Palestinians make up 0.278% of the world's refugees.If we take the whole 5 million UNRWA Palestinian Refugee Count and the whole UNHCR Refugee and IDP count, Palestinians make up 8.929% of all the world's refugees.

What is the number of people in Lebanon?
Lebanon currently has a population of 4.1 million citizens, 400,000 Palestinian Refugees (who are denied citizenship even though almost all of them were born in Lebanon), and 1.3 million Syrian Refugees. Unfortunately, as the situation in Syria continues to deteriorate, it is expected that Lebanon will accommodate between 1.6-1.7 million Syrian Refugees by 2015. This surge in population is overtaxing the country's very limited resources.
