16. Its not Israels responsibility to absorb the refugees.
The refugee crisis was instigated by Arab leaders and the invading Arab armies without which there would be no crisis in the first place. With a few exceptions most were not thrown out of their home but left volutarily or fled due to the war to destroy Israel initiated by the Arabs with Palestinian participation and supported by most of the Palestinian population.
A 1952 memorandum submitted to the League of Arab States by the Higher Arab Committee shows that in 1948 Arab states officially agreed to responsibility for the refugees and welcomed immigration at least until Israel could be destroyed.

Your factual distortions and hyperbole dont hide the fact that the only rank hypocrisy lies with the Arab states
