The question conflates two different events.

Expulsion/Flight: In the Jewish-Arab Engagement of 1947-9, around 720,000 Palestinians fled the nascent state of Israel and built refugee camps in other Arab countries. However, while this war expanded on the area provided to Israel by the UNGA Resolution 181 (II), the additional areas are not designated as unique regions.

Taking of Two Regions: In the Six Day War of 1967, Israel conquered several regions which included the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. These are two regions associated with Palestinians. Nobody really fled from Gaza, but 300,000 Palestinians fled from West Bank into Jordan. However, most of these refugees either joined the camps that already existed from 1949 or they (illegally) integrated into the normal Jordanian population, but with severely limited rights.

Who was put in refugee camps after the Six-Day War in Israel?

Palestinians who fled from the territories that Israel occupied.


How were the conditions in the Palestinian concentration camps?

As no such things exist, there are no conditions to discuss. Palestinians have never been rounded up and placed in concentration camps and the use of that term is both insulting to the numerous people throughout history that suffered in concentration camps (especially during the Holocaust, the Soviet genocides, the Cultural Revolution, and the Cambodian Genocide) and hyperbole to inflate what wrongs Israel may perform. Palestinians live in refugee camps whose conditions while bad do not fall to the depravity of concentration camps.


Who is to blame for the Arab-Israeli conflict?

Answer 1Everyone is to blame for the continuing conflict. Israelis are continuing to build settlements in the West Bank and Blockade Gaza, preventing the Palestinians from properly developing a State of their own. Palestinian organizations like Hamas refuse to recognize Israel as a Jewish State. American benefactors support Israel without encouraging it to abandon the practice of the settlements. Arab Nations do not try to engage Israel openly and honestly and believe in holding the Palestinians in refugee camps while they continue to demand that Israel host all of the refugees, something which they know is a non-starter with Israel.Answer 2Palestine. the Israelis had control of the land first, but the Palestinians seized it from them thousands of years ago.Answer 3In basest terms: GodThe differences between the countries started out being religious, with each claiming that their own religion is the one that should have the region, it has since turned into a political issueAnswer 4God is to blame. As well as the Germans, British, Americans and French. And, of course, the Israelis and Palestinians

Why were there Palestinian concentration camps?

As no such things exist, there is no rationale to discuss. Palestinians have never been rounded up and placed in concentration camps and the use of that term is both insulting to the numerous people throughout history that suffered in concentration camps (especially during the Holocaust, the Soviet genocides, the Cultural Revolution, and the Cambodian Genocide) and hyperbole to inflate what wrongs Israel may perform. Palestinians live in refugee camps which were built by Arab countries that did not want to integrate them. This way, they could be permanent refugees and be a sore to be used as a weapon against Israel's legitimacy.


In which countries or regions did the Holocaust primarily occur?

What Happened to the Palestinians when Israel was invented?

Several things. Many stayed right where they were, but others were displaced from their family lands. Many of these were never resettled and raised their children and their children's children in "camps," which became breeding grounds for resentment and terrorism. Ethnic Palestinians can be citizens of Israel, with full political rights, but Israel has an interest in not letting so many Palestinians become citizens that they can take over the government. This is the linchpin of the "Right of Return" debate which refers to families resettling in Israel.

Why can Islamic countries surrounding Palestine not open their borders to the Palestinians and give them residency?

Islamic countries surrounding Israel/Palestine all have UNRWA camps where Palestinians live in perpetual refugee-ness. In Lebanon, they do not even have work papers (forget citizenship or residency) that would allow them to leave these camps on a regular basis, let alone citizenship. In Syria, they can get work papers, but not citizenship or residency. In both countries, but more commonly in Lebanon, these UNRWA camps are violently attacked and destroyed (look at Nahr el-Bared in 2007, as a perfect example). In Jordan, there is discrimination between '48 refugees and '67 refugees where the former get Jordanian citizenship and the latter are locked in camps. The governments in Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan prefer that this system is maintained because otherwise the Palestinians would be economic competition with citizens and increasing unemployment, which would threaten those autocratic regimes.


What happened to the Palestinians after the state of Israel was created?

Those who stayed in Israel, or their grandchildren, are still there, working at jobs, running businesses, attending or building mosques, going to school, and voting or running for positions in government. Those who 'escaped' to neighboring countries, or their grandchildren, are still there. Many are still in 'refugee camps', having been refused citizenship and social or economic participation in their 'host' countries.

Why do Palestinians have no support when their current reduced borders are violated?

The Palestinians do have support. UNRWA, a United Nations organization specifically designed to help Palestinian Refugees, receives lots of funding from Western countries including the United States and Great Britain. The United States has also tried to help facilitate a negotiated solution. However, we should also look at the Arab countries who have continued to hold Palestinians in Refugee Camps rather than give them residency or citizenship. Unlike Israel, Lebanon has actually declared war on some of its Palestinian Refugee Camps, such as in the 2007 Nahr El-Bared Incident and the 1982 Sabra and Shatila Incidents. Most Arab countries' governments would rather support the paramilitary/terrorist groups of Palestinians than the families who go starving.
