87. That Wiki list where you claimed the laws were similar?
Edited on Sat Apr-10-10 12:02 AM by Violet_Crumble
But they weren't similar at all. Take Ireland for example. The 'return' is one available to people based on ancestral citizenship, not based on ethnicity/religion/culure as is the law in Israel...

on edit: That Wiki list is really dubious anyway, as the term 'Right of return' is one used for refugees, not for someone like an Australian who is entitled to residency in the UK because one of their grandparents was a British citizenship. Indeed I'd go so far as to suspect that Wiki page was created by someone with the intent to try and confuse the issue when it comes to the Palestinian refugee issue as well as the citizenship laws for other countries which are most definately not similar to that of Israel...
