Israel begins expulsion of Palestinian 'Infiltrators'

Israel is an oppressive state bordering on becoming genocidal.
Never (us) again!
[QUOTE=BurnEmDown;21566042]Broseph, that's the silliest thing I've ever heard:
Just because they were legally entitled to declare a state doesn't mean they did, they refused to declare a state if the Jews also got a state of their own.[/QUOTE]
Lets forget about something called the 1948 Palestinian exodus
[QUOTE=BurnEmDown;21566042]I don't see how this has something to do with this but Palestine never was a country of it's own, When the Arabs were in charge it was just an area under their control, not an independent country or region. Palestine was the name of the area. And anyone who was called a "Palestinian" was called this way because he was simply from the area, he wasn't of a different nationality. An Arab living in Palestine was just like an Arab living in Syria or Egypt.[/QUOTE]
But no matter who controlled it, it was always a defined subdivision
[QUOTE=BurnEmDown;21566042]Same thing as above, Palestine was just an area under Arabian control, that's like saying the eastern coast of north America was a country before 1776.[/QUOTE]
Lets totally ignore the fact the Arabs were always the Majority regardless of Ottoman, Umayyad, Fatimid, Mamluk, Egyptian, Byzantine, Crusader, Islamic, Persian, and British rule for over a thousand years, and last time I checked Persians, Ottomans, the Byzantines, Mamluks, and British aren't Arabs.

As said in the video, many Arabs fled their homes, most because the Arabian nations told them stuff like "come to our country for a few days, Israel will be long gone by then and you'll be able to go back to your homes".
Also in the UN's decision it was decided that the new Jewish and Palestinian countries will be able to "kick out" "opposing" (can't find a better term for both) populations, so if the Palestinians had made a country of their own they could have "kicked out" the Jews living in their territory, and Israel was allowed to "kick out" the Arabs living in their area, the Arab's problem is that in their failed attack on Israel, it grew largely and thus it could kick out the Arabs who were in it's new borders.
AND ANOTHER THING: It's not like the Jews weren't "kicked out" too. Like the video says, 800,000 Jews were kicked out of Arabian countries all over the middle east, they were forced to move to Israel (although they didn't mind it too much), what about the injustice brought upon them?

California is also a defined subdivision of the USA, but it's not independent. California and any other state in the US is a lot more independent than Palestine or Syria or Egypt or any other "defined subdivision" in the Arabian empire or any other.

So what if they were a majority? The Americans were also a majority at the east coast in 1770, they still weren't independent.

Apparently the Arab countries are using Israel as an excuse to attack and kill all Jews. :downs:.
The majority of Palestinians became refugees during armed conflict and war in Palestine. Sources of flight include indiscriminate attacks on civilians, massacres, looting, destruction of property (including entire villages), and forced expulsion. Israeli military forces adopted 'shoot to kill' policies along the armistice lines to prevent the return of refugees. In some cases refugees were forced to sign papers that they were leaving voluntarily. In 1948, it is estimated that more than fifty percent fled under direct military assault. Sixty percent of refugees displaced to Jordan in 1967 fled as a result of direct military assault.
In 1948 eighty-five percent of the Palestinians living in the areas that became the state of Israel became refugees. More than 500 Palestinian villages were depopulated and later destroyed to prevent the return of the refugees. These comprised three-quarters of the Palestinian villages inside the areas held by Israeli forces after the end of the war. In the districts of Jaffa, Ramla and Bir Saba' not one Palestinian village was left standing. Approximately thirty-five percent of the Palestinian population of the West Bank, eastern Jerusalem, and Gaza Strip were expelled during the 1967 war. Two percent of villages were destroyed, as well as several refugee camps.
A smaller number of Palestinians have become refugees due to policies and practices akin to low-intensity transfer. These include expulsion, deportation, revocation of residency rights, denial of family reunification, land confiscation, and house demolition. Between 1948 and the mid-1950s Israel expelled around fifteen percent of the Palestinian population that remained after the war. By 1967 it had expropriated half of the land owned by Palestinian citizens of the state. Israel deported more than 6,000 Palestinians from 1967 occupied Palestine between 1967 and the early 1990s, revoked the residency rights of some 100,000, demolished 20,000 homes and refugee shelters, and confiscated several thousand square kilometers of land. Palestinian refugees are still refugees because they are unable to exercise their basic human right to return to their homes of origin. Israel refuses to allow the refugees to return to villages, towns and cities inside Israel due to the ethnic, national and religious origin of the refugees.
