Best Answer

Palestinians were forced out of Palestine and became refugees in Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and Egypt. It is worth noting that these are the countries with the largest numbers of Palestinian Refugees (excluding the camps in the West Bank and Gaza), but there is a large Palestinian diaspora in Europe, the Arab World (other than these five areas), South America, and North America.

How could the number of the Palestinian refugees grow 10 times since 1948?

The initial number of the Arab Palestinian refugees was approximately 750,000 people. It was 65 years ago and at least half of them have by now died of old age. But by some mystery, the number of those who call themselves "Palestinian refugees" is today about 6 MILLION people. How so? Very simple. By the UN regulations and norms, the status of a refugee is not inherited. It means that if your father was a refugee, you already are not. This law applies to ALL the refugees in the world: to more than 20 millions of Germans who became refugees after the WWII, to hundreds of thousands of Japanese, to 800,000 Jews who were robbed until their lingerie in Arab countries like Syria, Egypt, Lebanon-and then thrown out of these countries. But this law does not apply to the "Palestinian refugees". For them , the UN applied another - and absolutely unique- "technique". By this technique, a "Palestinian refugee" is any person "whose normal place of residence was Palestine between June 1946 and May 1948". This trick immediately converted into the " Palestinian refugees" all those hundreds of thousands of Arabs who emigrated to the Jewish Palestine from the neighboring Arab countries in 1935- 1948. If not for this trick, the initial number of the "Palestinian refugees" would be not 750,000, but hardly 200,000. Then, the UN declared that the "Palestinian refugees", maybe for their special and outstanding merits before the mankind, can INHERIT the status - and pass it to their children, grandchildren, wives, husbands, brothers, cousins... And now, 60 years later, we have 6 million of the so called "refugees" who are sure that the world must feed, teach, cure, dress and kiss them only because their grandparents fled Palestine 65 years ago.
