Or does that not matter because they weren't Jewish?
Or the arabs who fled their homes because they listened to the anti-jewish radio broadcasts and believed them?
You know, the ones who the arab nations turned their backs on, and used as pawns?
Funny how arab Israelis (those who for whatever reason didn't listen to the anti-jewish broadcasts) support Israel and the last thing they want is it handed over to the PA or Hamas. Of course, that doesn't gel with the "Jews are the bad guys" image, so generally gets ignored.

You think that the arabs just left their homes without a fight? I completely disagree with you on that point. I don't think anyone would want to go to a refugee camp or flee to a country not their own because there are too many jews.
As for the nation being handed over to Hamas or PA, I don't beleive that should happen. At this stage I think palestinians who want to return should be given the right of return, or maybe palestine should just be split into two equal independant countries with a permanant cease fire.
I'm not saying the Jews are the bad guys, I'm just saying that I think they were defintly in the wrong.
But I'm sure any Palestinian would see someone who did what they did as bad.
As for the majority of palestine being handed over to the Hashemites, I didn't know about that. People arn't happy with Muslims coming into Britain today though, I'm sure if it were English/Christian people, people would mind a little less. Are you telling me people arn't in protest here because there are too many muslims in the country?
"Or the arabs who fled their homes because they listened to the anti-jewish radio broadcasts and believed them?" - Most people seem to beleive the media today which seems to be portraying that all Muslims are bombers.
I hope I don't come across as rude by the way, I just get a little passionate about making points.
