All reproaches directed at Israel for expelling the Arabs in the 1948 Nakba should be seen against the background of the alternative that the Arabs offered the Jews. In 1947 the Jews had the choice of either seeking an independent state or else submitting to rule by the Arab majority.The leader of that Arab majority, imposedContinue reading “Why the Jews did not steal any Palestinian land in 1948”
