the 1948 Zionist massacres started in Israel against Arab towns that created 700,000 Palestinian refugees? How crazy are the American wannabe Israelis and wannabe "Christians" who don't even recognize that even the left in Israel does not deny this? How can one deny that the left in Israel has been worse to the Palestinians than the Likud party? How can one deny that Shimon Peres of the left was less aggressive reagarding the construction of settlements in the West Bank than Ariel Sharon of the right? How can one COMPLETELY IGNORE Shlomo Ben Ami, the Israeli Foreign Minister, who said that it was an Israeli Zionist genocide of "redemption" that caused the Palestinian refugees in 1948?

You are making the false assumption that most Americans know or care about anybody's history, not even their own.
Tell most American's that there was a guy named Shlomo and they will think he was one of the Marx brothers, Groucho, Chico, Harpo and Shlomo.

Funny, history records that what happened in 1948 was a war, in which Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon invaded the newly-created state of Israel. That's, after they rejected the UN plan to create sepparate states of Israel & Palestine out of the Mandate, in 1947.
Durring and immediately following that war, around 700,000 Arabs did leave Israel - and around 800,000 Jews fled the hostile Arab states.

Give it a rest guy. Israel has deed to all that land from God himself. When you face God, you ask him this silly question.
