"estimates range from 650,000 to 1 million."

Lord Bernadotte, the UN Mediator for Palestine, a man so anti-semitic he was killed by Jewish terrorists, reported 472,000 refugees to the UN. He used the regular definition used everywhere in the world until UNRWA.

That political org redefined refugee to be anyone who`d lived here two years, `46-48. It then told the UN it didn`t verify claimants met that simple requirement or were even refugees. it then reported 650,000.

More importantly, it was the Arab war that created the refugees and their 800,000 Jewish counterparts. That`s not Israel`s problem.
