Push the point HARD.
From news article: Peace with Arab countries will not be possible if they do not compensate the Jews who were expelled after the State of Israel’s establishment, Knesset Speaker Reuven Rivlin said on Monday at a Knesset conference.MK Nissim Ze’ev (Shas), whose parents were banished from Iraq, called the conference two years after the passage of his bill requiring any peace treaty to include reparations to Jewish refugees, in hopes of ensuring the law’s implementation. He also said he would form a Knesset caucus to promote the cause.Rivlin said that Jews from Arab countries had been happy to immigrate to Israel, but that did not erase the humiliation of having their property confiscated as they left.“In negotiations, there are two sides,” Ze’ev pointed out. “The world – especially the US and Europe – must realize that [Jewish] refugees have rights.”

Think of it, Arab states are falling over themselves to state they have no relations with Israel. Cut them off at the knees by making it law first that no relations w/o reparations. What could they do to that? Nothing.
