It probably wouldn't have made a lot of sense for Israel to readmit largely hostile Arabs who had fled, when they where still formally in a state of war with the Arab nations. Arab nations would probably have had less to fear from their Jewish populations but they pressured or threatened them to leave, or abused them, or in some cases just kicked them out. The Palestinians who fled where not allowed back in to Israel, but they where only forced in to refugee camps because the Arab governments forced them in to the camps. They could have been resettled, or at least allowed to resettle themselves (without government aid) but the Arab governments didn't want that. Why? Well maybe they didn't care for the Palestinians all that much, also the refugee camps gave them a propaganda tool to use against Israel, even if it was really the Arab governments forcing the Palestinians in to the camps.
