Do these Palestinian non-Jews Arabs have the right to go go back to their land? YES or NO How are you deciding that the land in question was "their land"? Who is the external authority that sold land and maintained land rights?

Sarman, Plenty of people have suffered as a result of the dismemberment of the Ottoman Empire. The Arabs who lived in the territory now called Israel, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon weren't the only ones who suffered or who lost their land and possessions. 700,000-800,000 Jews lost their possessions and land in other Arab territories as well. Your questions, which I'm pretty sure you repeat to yourself over and over again to assure yourself of your own righteousness and the perfidiousness of Zionists are nonsensical when asked in a real, historical context of the collapse of the Empire and its reconfiguration that occurred under the auspices of the League of Nations, the Mandates, WWII and the UN. That is what you are missing, and you will keep flailing about until you study more. That is all I have to say about the matter, I don't have time to educate you. You have to do that yourself.
