How did the Palestinian Arabs become people without a country?
In 1948, Jews didn't have a country, so they invaded Palestine, killed many Palestinians, and forced many out. The Jews then changed the name of Palestine to Israel.
What countries border palestine?
It depends on how you define Palestine. If you define it as the territories under the de facto control of the Palestinian Authority, it only borders Israel. If you consider only the territories of the West Bank, even those under de facto Israeli control, it borders both Israel and Jordan. If you consider all of the Palestinian Territories, also including the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip, it borders Israel, Jordan, and Egypt. If you consider the former Mandate of Palestine that many Arabs use when they discuss Palestine replacing Israel, it would border Jordan, Egypt, Syria, and Lebanon (but no Israel since Israel would be gone).
Which group of people was forced to leave their ancestral lands and move to reservations?
Many groups of Native Americans were forced to leave their ancestral lands and were moved to reservations in the 1800's.
Why did Palestinians flee what is now known as Israel?
Answer 1"Invaders arrived with guns and forced them out."Answer 2Answer 1 is a rhetorical answer to this rhetorical question, when in fact a more accurate statement might be: Arabs that remained in Israel and whom chose to live peacefully became what is known as Israeli Arabs, and Arabs that either participated in pogroms or sided with Arab nations who sought Israel's destruction Identified themselves as "Palestinian".Arabs prior to the six day war in 1967, were given aid from Arab nations and were informed that if they remained after the loss of the Jordanian controlled (woe to Jordan if they were to establish a homeland for the Palestinians when they had a chance) West bank, they would lose this aid and Arab propaganda told them they would have no safe haven.Additionally, many Native Palestinian Arabs residing in Jordan (also part of the original Palestinian mandate) were not recognized by the ruling family in Jordan favored by the Brittish for fighting the Turks during WWI, rose up against the Jordanians and were massacred on a very large scale by the Jordanians. (For more information read about the founding of the PLO and Black September.) Today, of course The King of Jordan styles himself as a Champion of Palestinian Rights and argues for the "Right of Return" as he would be happy to rid his own country of any Malcontents.Arab Nations continue to exploit the Arabs that remained in Israel as a method of creating political and security problems as they were unable to destroy Israel in conventional wars.Surely, Palestinian Arabs are the odd men out in middle eastern Politics as are the Kurds, Turkmen, Assyrians, and the Copts (who live under Arab rule with no homeland). But placing the blame exclusively on the founding of Israel is unbalanced.

Are there any Palestinian Resistance movements within Israel?
Of course! There are signs of Palestinian resistance everywhere within Israel proper and the Palestinian Territories. Many Arab Israeli citizens identify as Palestinian and with the Palestinian cause, although they do not necessarily want to move to the West Bank. The whole concept of the "right of return" is demonstrative of the Palestinian desire for autonomy and equality within Israel proper. There are also a number of organizations and groups run by Jewish Israelis such as Rabbis for Human Rights and Peace Now, which support Palestinian people within Israel and the Palestinian Territories. Resistance can be defined in many ways and take many forms, which do not necessarily need to be associated with political parties.
Israel and Palestinian conflict -Why?
There are many reasons for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, but most of them stem from the nationalist movements of the Jews and the Arabs which seeked to gain sovereignity.
Have Palestinian guerrillas fought against the state of Israel?
The Palestinian conflict goes back many decades, to the time when Jewish guerrillas fought against the indigenous Palestinians. Now that Jews have the upper hand and have successfully declared a state of Israel, while denying the Palestinians the same right, even on the small fragments of territory left to them, we now find Palestinian guerrillas fighting against Israel. This should have been foreseeable, but compromises were not made.
Why is Israel building a barrier on the West Bank of the Jordan River?
Israel is not building a barrier on the West Bank of the Jordan River. Israel is building a barrier between 1948-Israel and the West Bank that crosses onto Palestinian territory at numerous points. The barrier is designed to prevent easy access of Palestinians to Israel in order to limit suicide bombings. In this regard, it has proven successful and regions with the barrier have seen a marked decrease in terrorist attacks. However, the barrier has a number of humanitarian costs, like estranging Palestinian families, cutting Palestinian properties in half, limiting Palestinian access to water, and promoting settlement growth. Many Palestinians see it as a way for Israelis to reshape the borders of Israel by taking more Palestinian land.
What countries border palestine?
It depends on how you define Palestine. If you define it as the territories under the de facto control of the Palestinian Authority, it only borders Israel. If you consider only the territories of the West Bank, even those under de facto Israeli control, it borders both Israel and Jordan. If you consider all of the Palestinian Territories, also including the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip, it borders Israel, Jordan, and Egypt. If you consider the former Mandate of Palestine that many Arabs use when they discuss Palestine replacing Israel, it would border Jordan, Egypt, Syria, and Lebanon (but no Israel since Israel would be gone).
How were the Palestinians induced to part with their homeland for the new State of Israel?
They weren't induced to leave their land and the State of Israel was planning to accept them. In the chaos of the Jewish-Arab Engagement of 1947-1949, many Palestinian Arabs left their homes under threat of violence or the pleading of their religious leaders who believed Israel would be crushed and at that point, they could return to their homes in peace. Additionally, the vast majority of territory in the British Mandate of Palestine was actually owned by Turkish nobility as absentee landlords. The amount of lands actually in Palestinian hands was minimal.
Why is it so important to many Israelis and Jews outside of Israel that the Palestinian Authority call Israel a Jewish State?
This is the recognition of Israel's mission for the Jewish people. Israel is a nation-state in the 19th century understanding of that term. This is in much the same way that Germany, Italy, Armenia, and many other countries are nation-states. Nobody questions Germany's right to maintain an ethnic-German majority in Germany or to base German laws on German cultural values. It is self-understood that if Germany wished to close its border to immigration, they could do so and maintain an ethnically German state. (They technically cannot close the border to EU migrations because of EU Law, but most immigrants to Germany are from countries outside of the EU.) However, there is a strong push to allow resettlement of Palestinian refugees and their descendants into Israel, which would violate the Jewish national culture of the State of Israel. The entire purpose of the State of Israel is to create a State for Jews in both the sense that it is a place where they can live and a place permeated by Jewish values. The recognition by the Palestinian Authority that Israel is a Jewish State would be an implicit acquiescence to what Israel requires as the basis of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations: Palestine should be the State of the Palestinian Arabs. Palestine should be responsible for resettling the refugees of its people, not Israel. It is because of this very implication that the Palestinian Authority has resisted calling Israel the Jewish State.
How many refugees are there because of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict?
In 1948-1955, 720,000 Palestinians fled Israel and 850,000 Jews fled the Arab countries.
