another driving force was the european christian churches who were fully supporting, funding, and encouraging the migration of the jewish people back to isreal.... that other group of refugees that the europeans had put up with through the ages. and let's not forget, that great migration was the beginning what what the christian churches saw a the fullfillment of bible prophecy...
asking why egypt and jordan didn't take in the people who were uprooted because of this great migration would be like asking why the iroquios didn't take in the cherokee people instead of letting them be marched westward to their deaths. and would the cherokee people have been more willing to leave their own homes if other tribes had offered to take them in any ways? I mean, aren't there something like over 300,000 palestinian refugees in refugee camps in jordan? it seems to me that if they are still in the refugee camps, there seems to be a big problem asimilating them into the jordanian culture. seems to me that a refugee camp is still a refugee camp weather it's on land that is controlled by isreali or jordanian.

Then there is no isreali people..
Obviously..
Unless your saying they became isrealies In the 7 days war by right of conquest..
Which is the oldest claim to statehood..
But that still leaves room for the Palestinians to claim their own land through the same process..
All that makes any “are not a real people” claim ridiculous..

Good post. If we go by the logic that created Israel, expand that to today. We can make a space for the Palestinians in, say Arizona. That would probably work out the same way this did.

na... we can just send all the hopi and apache up to live with the souix and give the palestinians that land!!... well, less a tad, mainly the land we want for the precious resources that are on it!! or wait a minute, strike that one, believe one of those resources is uranium?? na... maybe we should ship the onieda, mohawk, and onondaga west and give them that land...
see how easy it is to disrupt people and steal their land, and get them far away from you if you don't want them around???

I note the article is authored by "Judith Bergman." She quotes the Arab historian as saying that we live in a "post-factual" era, but I find the article mostly devoid of palpable facts. It too, is propaganda.

Trouble is there's no way of proving or disproving that.
