    "Jewish immigration...in Palestine on a large scale can be carried out without displacing Arabs." Ben Gurion, October 1941, Internal policy paper.

Ben-Gurion, Nov. 1, 1936, Jewish Agency Executive Meeting. In addition, during the 1948 war, Ben-Gurion REFUSED permission to seize the West Bank (Gorenberg, Accidental Empire, 2006, p. 17). Ponder that.
