Why does nobody care about the Jewish refugees from Arab lands?
The world is greatly concerned about the Arabs who

many casualties. That would at long last be unacceptable to the
Israeli public. A vigorous response would be demanded. It would
in all likelihood cause many casualties in Gaza – most of
