Israel, openly said, and even asked, resident Arabs to stay, and remain in Israel, and become Israeli citizens.
They instead choose to leave, because they were promised that after the Jews were wiped out by the Arab armies, that they would plunder the Jews.
Instead, Israel won, and the Arabs lost, and thus those people lose. There is no 'redress'. They were not wronged. They voluntarily left, and deserted Israel, and rolled the dice on a bad gamble, and lost.... just as G-d himself said they would lose.
Genesis 12:3
"I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you."
G-d wasn't missing around.
Zechariah 9:11
"As for you also, Because of the blood of your covenant, I will set your prisoners free from the waterless pit. Return to the stronghold, You prisoners of hope. Even today I declare That I will restore double to you. For I have bent Judah, My bow, Fitted the bow with Ephraim, And raised up your sons, O Zion, Against your sons, O Greece, And made you like the sword of a mighty man." Then the Lord will be seen over them, And His arrow will go forth like lightning. The Lord God will blow the trumpet, And go with whirlwinds from the south. The Lord of hosts will defend them; They shall devour and subdue with slingstones. They shall drink and roar as if with wine; They shall be filled with blood like basins, Like the corners of the altar. The Lord their God will save them in that day, As the flock of His people. For they shall be like the jewels of a crown, Lifted like a banner over His land- For how great is its goodness And how great its beauty! Grain shall make the young men thrive, And new wine the young women."
See, you think you are fighting Jews. You are not. You are fighting G-d. And you won't win.

What about the 300,000 Palestinians who were driven from their homes before any of the Arab armies showed up?

Not true. You need to study history.
I have, thanks. I've read both sides, and honestly there's not much support for the alternative version.
Most were not driven from their homes. Even the invading armies said they reached entire villages that were completely abandoned, and there was no Israeli presence. Even the Arabs marveled at what cowards the people were. They left before a single shot was fired.
You did not address my post.
When did the Palestinians lose?
Where is the surrender and treaty to cede land to Israel?
When they left..... after Israel offered full citizenship if they stayed.... they lost.
If Ohio decided it was going to secede from the Union, and promised full citizenship to the new Country of Ohio, and I found out the US was going to attack Ohio.....
I have choice to make. I can stay with Ohio, and if they win, I become a citizen of Ohio.
Or I can leave, and if the US wins, move back to my property, and plunder the Ohioians who lost.
But... If I leave, and Ohio wins..... I lose everything.
If I stay, and the US wins.... I lose everything.
That's how that works.
Did you know..... there were many many "Loyalists" during the American revolution, who fled to the Briton during the revolution... and they lost all their property. They didn't get to come back and claim their homes... they just flat out lost their homes.
They bet on the wrong side.... and lost.
Equally there were some Loyalist, who stayed with the colonies during the revolution, and they kept their property.
Same deal. Now if the Loyalists had come back from Briton, and tried to take their property back, we'd have killed them.
Same with those people over there. They want to fight Israel? Ok... go die. Your choice.
