They are the ones who nurtured the guerrillas. It is their teachings that provided the spark that set off these series of international explosions. Their political stand left the Arab refugees stranded on the west bank with no home except refugee camps. Finally. it is the Arab States who supplied the guerrillas with the arms that they have used to terrorize innocent victims. The history of the Palestinian refugees demonstrates how far Arab responsibility stretches. When the State of Israel was created in 1948. she urged all Arabs living in the territory to remain. Israel promised them equal rights and a fair share in Israels future. Approximately 175.000 Arabsa bit more than one in five of all Arabs then living in Israeli territorydid stay in Israel. The Arabs who did remain now have a standard of living higher than the people in any Arab nation. They are in one sense of the word refugees. But approximately 575.000 Arabs did leave what was to be Israeli territory. They were not forced out by the Israelis.
