Mideast Refugees — Failure vs. Success

"Two refugee problems ... still haunt us. One we all know about: the flight of some 650,000 Palestinian Arabs from what is now the Jewish state." The other, "the forced exodus of some 900,000 Jews from their centuries old homes in the Arab world" by the same Arab world in negative response to the birth of the modern Jewish State of Israel by the U.N.

Both refugee communities came into being at the same time due to the same historical events; yet one of these communities no longer is, while the other festers in full view of the world. Why is this? Read what Richard Z. Chesnoff has to say about this question here.
