<< THAT, Palestinians have the highest ratio of PhDs per capita in the world? >> The value of a Palestinian PhD is equivalent or lower than an American GED. I've heard that all Palestinian diplomas are signed by Arafat. <g> Thousands of years of Arab culture and Palestinian's greatest connection to technology is their high level of AIDS from their interactions with their camels. Sad, isn't it?

So what? Your heavily biased and misleading note reflects your support for the inhumane Arab dictatorships of the Middle East.

Thus, Jews were not driving Arabs out, but drawing them in. The growth of the Jewish population between the wars was overwhelmingly due to European persecution, leading to genocide. It is not as if a bunch of voracious European Jews decided to move to Palestine for the good life, but they were driven out of Europe. More refugees were added post-1948 as a result of persecutions in arab lands. The vast majority of the arab Jews, prior to these persecutions, also had no desire to go to Palestine/Israel. It is, of course, not unexpected that the Europeans and Arabs who drove the Jews of Israel to this inhospitable corner of the world blame the Jews themselves for this situation, without acceptance of an ounce of historical responsibility. But thus has it ever been...
