Many of the Jews who fled to #Israel would not have done so but for the virulent #European anti-Semitism that by the end of World War II saw 6 million Jews murdered.

Israel was all that many impoverished and stateless survivors, robbed of their national rights, communities, homes and often most of their relatives, had left.

It became the tragic fate of the Palestinians, who had no role in the European pogroms or the Holocaust, to be sacrificed on the altar of hate.
