"Today, a Jew from any country can move to Israel, while a Palestinian refugee, with a valid claim to property in Israel, cannot.
What's that supposed to mean? You mean some "palestinian" "refugee" (both debatable terms) has a valid claim to property in Israel that had to date back to 1948 or earlier? I would like to see that valid claim.
Secondly, every Arab who left Israel in 1948 because their Islamic leaders told them to leave so they could destroy all the Jews in the land. Well they left, but the 7 Arab nations did not accomplish their goal. And, as it were, Israel offered all of the "palestinians" to come back to their properties --- except, they wanted some type of peace agreement with Jordan, Egypt, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, etc. None of them would offer anything of the sort --- and never have to this day! --- except for Sadat in 1978, the lone exception. So if Arafat or any Palestinian leader was willing to make peace, there would be peace. And if they had done it before the 1967 war they would have all of East Jerusalem and the West Bank and Gaza with not a Jewish settlement in sight. So obviously this hatred and attacks were never about "settlements."
I notice you had nothing to say about those "tortured Arabs" having to live under the yoke of Israeli law. I notice you do not assign any blame or responsibility to all these rich Arab nation neighbors to help out or to even allow some Palestinians to emigrate to their countries? No, of course not, only the Jews are we to hate.
1. This is just one example, the deed and the key to the home.

2. Your bullshit propaganda about the Palestinians being told to leave by the Arab forces:
"“There is no evidence to show that the Arab states and the AHC wanted a mass exodus or issued blanket orders or appeals to the Palestinians to flee their homes (though in certain areas the inhabitants of specific villages were ordered by Arab commanders or the AHC to leave, mainly for strategic reasons).” ("The Birth of the Palestinian Refugee Problem", p. 129). On the contrary, anyone who fled was actually threatened with “severe punishment”. As for the broadcasts by Arab radio stations allegedly calling on people to flee, a detailed listening to recordings of their programmes of that period shows that
the claims were invented for pure propaganda........................... report prepared by the intelligence services of the Israeli army, dated 30 June 1948 and entitled “The emigration of Palestinian Arabs in the period 1/12/1947-1/6/1948”. This document sets at 391,000 the number of Palestinians who had already left the territory that was by then in the hands of Israel, and evaluates the various factors that had prompted their decisions to leave. “At least 55% of the total of the exodus was caused by our (Haganah/IDF) operations.” To this figure, the report’s compilers add the operations of the Irgun and Lehi, which “directly (caused) some 15%... of the emigration”. A further 2% was attributed to explicit expulsion orders issued by Israeli troops, and 1% to their psychological warfare. This leads to a figure of 73% for departures caused directly by the Israelis. In addition, the report attributes 22% of the departures to “fears” and “a crisis of confidence” affecting the Palestinian population. As for Arab calls for flight, these were reckoned to be significant in only 5% of cases..."
The expulsion of the Palestinians re-examined
And the Israelis (back then) made it clear no Jew should touch any Palestinian Arab property vacated.
By the way, if any of your sources are Arabic, you can assume they are lies and embellishments.
The Jewish Virtual Library documents and sites sources on all its information.
Arab Leaders Provoke Exodus
A plethora of evidence exists demonstrating that Palestinians were encouraged to leave their homes to make way for the invading Arab armies. The U.S. ConsulGeneral in Haifa, Aubrey Lippincott, wrote on April 22, 1948, for example, that “local muftidominated Arab leaders” were urging “all Arabs to leave the city, and large numbers did so.”
The Economist, a frequent critic of the Zionists, reported on October 2, 1948: “Of the 62,000 Arabs who formerly lived in Haifa not more than 5,000 or 6,000 remained. Various factors influenced their decision to seek safety in flight. There is but little doubt that the most potent of the factors were the announcements made over the air by the Higher Arab Executive, urging the Arabs to quit....It was clearly intimated that those Arabs who remained in Haifa and accepted Jewish protection would be regarded as renegades.”
It has much more to say >>
