Many years ago I wondered out loud to a friend about how Palestinians must feel to have been driven out of their land and homes as Israel was created. He pointed out that
- Jews bought their land and homes as they moved to Israel, pre-1947. They didn't take anything from anyone.
- Most Palestinians who left Israel did so voluntarily at the behest of Arab leaders who promised they could return within a few weeks after the Jews were "driven into the sea."
- The Palestinians who were driven from their homes and land were comparatively small in number, and that happened only because the Transjordanians, Syrians, and Egyptians attacked and tried to annihilate the Jews of Israel.
With these three points in mind, it is difficult not to support Israel. Add to them the fact that these same Arab countries refused to encourage the Palestinians to assimilate into their countries, and we see that the major source of the problems in the middle east is anything but Israel.
For more on the refugees in the middle east, see The Great Refugee Scam.
... It was in the immediate aftermath of the war that the refugee scam was developed into an international operation. As soon as the UN Disaster Relief Organization started providing food, shelter, clothing and medical attention to the Arabs who had fled Palestine, a mass of needy Arabs descended on the camps from all over the Arab states. The organization had no machinery for identification; so the arrivals simply signed the register as refugees and received the free aid.
And there is much more at that site.
