re: #230 imp_62

You are not entirely accurate. Where there was no such thing as a “Palestinian” prior to Israeli statehood, the creation of a nominal “Arab State” at the end of te British Mandate created a de facto nationality for anyone living in those areas. Arguably, the rejection of that state by the Arab nations, and the subsequent invasion of Israel, abrogated its existence and claims, but it nonetheless existed, on paper, at the time Israel was established.

Is there a good fairly non-biased book that hashes all this out? Everything I’ve tried to read comes off as propaganda for one side or the other.
