What if Jordan is the real Palestine?

The purpose of this change in nomenclature is to undercut any Arab claim to sovereignty over territory Israel now holds. It also makes the Palestinians look greedy; they already have a whole loaf and they want another. It implies that while Palestinians should leave Israel alone, they should feel free to make changes in the Hashemite Kingdom. It also suggests that, because Israel has at least as valid a claim to the east bank as the Palestinians do to the west, the granting of the eastern part of Palestine to Arabs represents a form of Zionist generosity. Finally, it implies that the Israelis may be justified in expelling Arabs to Jordan, their true Palestinian patrimony. In this way, the kindred notions of Jordan-is-Palestine and Greater Israel join the demographic and political issues facing Israel today to create the political agenda of the Israeli right.
During Black September massacre the "occupying" Jordanians liquidated over 20,000 native Palestinians in the expulsion of the PLO from their sovereign lands but, that's just Muslim on Muslim crime so it's okay right?
Terrorist hypocrites let's not mention Kuwait and what it did in 2003....

I am fine with Muslims fighting Muslims. It's kinda like the Iron Bowl or Falcons-Panthers.

Black September was caused by several failed assassination attempts on King Hussein of Jordan as well as open acts of defiance such as hijacking multiple airliners, landing them in Jordan, then blowing them up on camera after the passengers were removed.
There's an old saying "If you strike at the king, you better kill him." The PLO failed and the king fricked them up as a result, to the point where the organization relocated to Lebanon.

Yet people think other Arab countries will take people from Gaza in with open arms.

Why is it Jordan's responsibility to take care of Israel's persecuted citizens?

I'm not sure I understand your point. The entire map of that area of the Middle East is a remnant of WWI/WWII. There was no modern state of Israel before 1948.

I don't understand why it is so difficult to understand that Palestinians are not Jordanians, Lebanese, Syrian, or Egyptian.
Just because they are Arab, they can easily take up residence in Jordan? Lebanon? Syria? Egypt? What's the difference, they all like falafel?
Call them what you want, but if you and your family can trace thousands of years of roots in Texas, being uprooted to Mississippi should be the same thing? Since we all like fried chicken?
The disregarded FACT is, during the 1948 war Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, and especially Jordan - they all took on hundreds of thousands of fleeing Palestinians. People who were farmers, carpenters, etc with no weapons or means to defend themselves.
My father survived the "1948 War," and saw his family members hanging from trees, blown to pieces, beaten, and murdered. It was a hostile take over. There was nothing just about it.
Jordan, Palestine, Trans-Jordan, Israel - all just names for the Holy Land - where Arabs lost their right to live.
