Jordan strips Palestinians of citizenship,& no one cares

See Jerusalem Post article here. (Hat-tip: Aussie Dave. See also Jameel's post.)

Jordan is deliberately creating a class of stateless people (persons without citizenship in any country) just to advance the Palestinian cause (and save themselves the trouble of assuming responsibility for their own brethren, while they're at it). I'm not holding my breath waiting for a U.N. resolution condemning this inhumane and cynical move. The U.N. saves condemnatory resolutions for Israel. As Aussie Dave said, "No-one really cares unless it is Israel who is perceived to be restricting the palestinians’ “rights.” And as Jameel said, "Jordan wants to pressure Israel, and the best way of "guaranteeing" a Palestinian State is to revoke the citizenship of the Palestinians living in Jordan -- and throwing the whole mess at Israel. Nice."

Isn't stripping them of citizenship one of the first things that the Nazis did to German Jews?

Yes, it certainly is appalling. Equally appalling is the indifference of most of the rest of the world to such blatant Arab-on-Arab violations of human rights and dignity.
