Robert, Who said anything about Jews fleeing genocide in Europe? The Arabs were not opposed to these people going to Palestine. They were concerned about further immigration and the establishment of a "Jewish" State. But allow me to step back a moment and remind you that Jews were not the only victims of genocide during WW II, so tryn to keep that in mind, and not allow those with a political and economic agenda to cloud your view. Let me restate a comment I have made a number of times here. I do not criticise the transfer of Jews or anyone else needing refuge during WW II, but think it was an act of war to create a "Jewish" State over the objections of the Arab people. The Arabs were hostile to Jews who were out to undermine the region, and create a State. Besides, what blame can be assessed to Palestinians for what was done in Europe by folks who, if asked, wha their faith was, would answer Christian? Jews are not different than me, but Zionists surely are.
