You're not interested in facts.
Because you ignore them.
"Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab
villages. You do not even know the names of
these Arab villages, and I do not blame you
because geography books no longer exist. Not only do
the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there
either. Nahlal arose in the place of Mahlul;
Kibbutz Gvat in the place of Jibta; Kibbutz Sarid
in the place of Huneifis; and Kefar Yehushua in the place
of Tal al-Shuman. There is not a single place built in
this country that did not have a former Arab population."
(Moshe Dayan, address to the Technion, Haifa,
reported in Haaretz, April 4, 1969).
And:
"The issue of Palestinian refugees resonated with me
because I myself was a refugee. We came to the US in
August 1944 as part of a token group of about 1,000
mostly Jewish reugees...In 1987, when I read Simha Flapan's
"The Birth of Israel:Myths and Realities," I was shocked
and disbelieving that it took me a second reading of his
book to come to erms with what he wrote at the outset:
that the 1948 was was as needless and unnecessary for the
"security" of Israel as was the Israeli invasion of
Lebanon of 1982.
I learned that...the 1948 war was not defensive, but a
war to gain more territory than the UN had allotted for the
Jewish state and to "cleanse" the area of Palestinian
Arabs. I learned that even before the May 15 invasion
by Arab armies, Jewish forces had succeeded in expelling
some 300,000 Palestinians from their homes, but
another 400,000 Palestinians remained in areas that the Jews
coveted.
Since the Jewish population in 1948 was only about 600,000,
the Ben0Gurion leadership REQUIRED WAR in order to rid
the new Jewish state of most of its Arab population."
(Ronald Bleier, Nov. 1992).
As Anatoli Kuznetsov wrote,
"History cannot be deceived, and it is
impossible to conceal something from it
forever."
