Jews Do Not ‘Occupy’ Their Own Homeland

61. So you believe Winston Churchill & Bobby Kennedy deliberately lied, right?

Why? What would be their motive? Churchill's quote is from 1939 while Kennedy's is 1 month before the 1948 war, before any refugee problem. What's the motive?

Also, the Arab population growth rate within what is considered Israel was far higher than the growth rate elsewhere, indicating mass migration (illegal, unaccounted for).

By contrast, throughout the Mandatory period, Arab immigration was unrestricted. In 1930, the Hope Simpson Commission, sent from London to investigate the 1929 Arab riots, said the British practice of ignoring the uncontrolled illegal Arab immigration from Egypt, Transjordan and Syria had the effect of displacing the prospective Jewish immigrants. 8

The British Governor of the Sinai from 1922–36 observed: “This illegal immigration was not only going on from the Sinai, but also from Transjordan and Syria, and it is very difficult to make a case out for the misery of the Arabs if at the same time their compatriots from adjoining states could not be kept from going in to share that misery.” 9

The Peel Commission reported in 1937 that the “shortfall of land is . . . ​due less to the amount of land acquired by Jews than to the increase in the Arab population.” 10
