Your analogy is flawed. The Palestinians weren't the poor losers. The losers were all the Arab countries who invaded Israel: Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Algeria, Kuwait, Sudan and the whole Arab nation. For 30 years after that war, those same Arab nations pursued the goal of "wiping Israel off the map". They used the local Arabs, Palestinians, to pursue that goal as well. Israel never had a chance to assimilate the Palestinains, because all the money in the Arab world was flowing into building the infrastructure of hatred in Palestine in order to continue the war. You see, the Americans had beaten Germany and the Germans had signed a treaty of peace. The war was over, so the reconstruction could begins. The war is still raging between the Arabs, the Palestinians, and the Jews in Israel. Reconstruction can't begin until the war is over. Can you imagine Israeli peace corps moving into the refugee camps unarmed to help rebuild? They'd be slaughtered by the Palestinians.
