"Some day, some how, the world will take note of the plight of these people"!

60 years later nothing has changed. They are still refugees in their own land, with absolutely no right, and no country of their own. All the while Israel continues to take more, and more land, builds settlements, up-roots their orchards,olive trees, bombs the hell out of these people and the world remains silent. Shame on Israel, and the U.S. for supporting the Zionist regime.

Palestinians aren't much better off nearly 60 years later...

One must not forget that the US has been the largest contributor to aid the Palestinian refugees after WWII. In 1958 for example, the US donated $577 million to them while Saudi Arabia gave only $5 million. After the US came Britain with 133 million, Canada with 32 million, West Germany with 27 million and Sweden with 26 million.

@xander7ful read. maybe if you read b4 youreply you would know.

@uzijohn how about the facts..not people...the facts are that there was never an ancient country called palestine and there never were ancient palestinians as many jew haters claim. call them zionist if you want and join the propaganda machine of lies

[xander7ful]

@dasenuff The Arabs instigated what lie?

[uzijohn]

Zionists continue to claim there were never a people called "Palestinians" but as this 1950 film affirms at 1:45 these displaced refugees were from Palestinian and that term is more than proper to describe, classify or identify them.

Others commenter’s have properly stated it was not a "War" that displaced these people, but threats and acts of violence committed by Zionist terrorist groups, a few of these terrorists became political leaders in Israel.

Be careful of those "Humanitarian Aide" and "Vaccines" for they are another word for "GENOCIDE", a problem that is created by the UN cannot be solved by the UN. UN is but a front by the Satanist bankers, Illuminati, the Rotschilds and their cabal

[dasenuff]

i think not...it was the rabs who instigated this lie and got the paly's to leave their land and become refugees to garner animosity against isreal!

@anamacore Settlement building will unfortunately not cease until peace talks are initiated. Palestinians largely do not recognize Israel and therefore do not show up to the peace talks. It's a terrible cycle. Countless lives are lost and everyone's standards of living is poorer in the end.

I have to correct this archive that the refugee are not the result of the war, this clearly looks like a sensory of information. the reason was because of the jewish settlers and there occupation and act of terror by the Ergon organization witch joined the IDF later on. they who forced the Palestinians out of there homes and ended up as refugees.
