Summary
Between 1946 and 1974, one million Jews were expelled from the Arab world. The Jews have been living in Arabic lands for thousands of years and seemed to accept their fate forever, some even considering their survival a miracle. But in 1948, at the beginning of their exodus, was also the birth of the State of Israel. While Arab armies were preparing to invade the young refugee-country, while the survivors of the Shoah were piling up in dangerous boats to fulfill at last the return to the land of their dreams and prayers, a few hundred thousand Arabs from Palestine were getting ready to flee their home, convinced that they would return as winners and conquerors.
