LINK: Kevin Yaroch points me to a Juan Cole post on Iraq offering compensation and right of return to Iraqi Jews. I think this is a fantastic idea, especially because it nicely highlights the notion that there doesn't have to be total enmity between Arabs and Jews.
I think Juan Cole probably goes a bridge too far in suggesting that this should be coupled with a Palestinian right of return to Israel. It should be coupled with a Palestinian right of return to Jordan.
