Interesting. I believe that it’s taken from a Zionist program of the same name. Though one question, looking through the 10 reasons to join page, it said that they could apply for ‘Palestinian Citizenship. I was under the impression that because of their lack of national status (the occupied territories not being internationally recognized as a state) they were given United Nations Refugee Status. Am I missing something? Any help would be appreciated.
