Algeria, in particular, has said that it will not honor a request for restitution.

The Ministry for Pensioners' Affairs recently called upon about one million immigrants from Arab countries to fill out letters of claim in preparation for a lawsuit the ministry is preparing in order to return their property. The ministry also raised the possibility of holding indirect negotiations with the relevant countries as a means of establishing compensation.

"Right of return" is a two-way street.
If you can't pay up, that's fine.
Just don't ask for anything.

I don't understand why this wasn't addressed years ago. Arafat used the ROR as a reason to reject all peace agreements. But what has happened to Jews in Arab (and Iran) countries is despicable.
To me that is a major reason not to care about "world opinion" when it comes to Israel.
