Reply #75: You just repeated a myth...

[Violet_Crumble]

Over 600,000 Palestinians fled Israel in 1948 at the behest of the Arab countries who invaded in response to Israel's declaration of independence.

That's just as much a myth as claiming all the refugees were forcibly expelled. Over 600,000 refugees did not flee on the behest of Arab countries. There was a mixture of forced expulsion and fleeing out of fear at what was happening to neighbouring towns and villages...
