PA Daily: Arabs Caused the Palestinian Refugee Problem

[Palestinian Media Watch] Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook - The Arabs who became refugees in 1948 were not expelled by Israel but left on their own to facilitate the destruction of Israel, according to a senior Palestinian journalist writing in a Palestinian daily. Jawad al-Bashiti wrote in Al-Ayyam on May 13, 2008: "The Arab Salvation Army came and told the Palestinians: 'We have come to you in order to liquidate the Zionists and their state. Leave your houses and villages, you will return to them in a few days safely. Leave them so we can fulfill our mission (destroy Israel) in the best way and so you won't be hurt.'"
