You mean the genocide of Jews in Iraq (in 1948 there were about 150,000) and the fact that, if there is one ethnicity that is being cleansed in "palestine" it is the Jews (Jewish population of Gaza: 0, once last settlers leave West Bank Jewish population there will be 0)?
i'm glad we are in agreement that there was indeed no genocide of jews in iraq. i too am glad they got safely to israel. nothing excuses what israel has been doing for generations to the palestinian people, however.
No really, what have Israelis been doing to Arabs who live in Israel?
Arabs in Israel own land, businesses, freely worship, have access to cheap medicine and education and contribute less to government than their Jewish neighbors or even Druze and Bedouin.
What did Israel do to law abiding Muslim Arabs in today's state of Israel?
while that might have been a worthy fringe benefit, along with establishing a consolidated base for world domination, it's not why jews fled iraq and most of the other middle eastern countries in '48.
