Jordan isn’t half Palestinian – it is clearly mostly Palestinian. And most aren’t refugees, they lived there before 1948 – before the Palestinian people even existed. It is strange how things work in those parts :)

Generally though, I remember what my dad always said when we crossed between countries. “You have rights in Country X, you have rights in Country Y – but you have no rights at the border.”

It is quite impressive to treat diplomats that way.
