Ari Shavit’s acclaimed work My Promised Land relies on a highly distorted account of Israeli responsibility for the Arab refugee problem.    

By using criteria not applied to any other group, the UN’s relief-and-works agency has hugely inflated the official number of Palestinian refugees, thereby adding yet. . .

The 1950s saw a population-and-asset exchange between Israel and its neighbors that was tacitly recognized by Arab leaders at the time—but is conveniently ignored today.

Thousands of Palestinians have been killed or displaced in Syria and Lebanon—to conspicuous silence from not only the international community but the Palestinian Authority itself.
