you gotta hear both sides of a story to make a fair decision.

Kicked out by who? Not the Jews, it was their fellow arabs who told them to get out of the way so they could destroy Israel. They didn't and Israel didn't let them back in. And who kept them in those refugee camps for the last 50 years? Arab governements, who refused to let them integrate into their countries. Jordan has more of the land from "palistine" than Israel does, and yet most of the Palistinians are still in refugee camps. It's been a PR coup for the arabs, who have a large part of the world blaming Israel for the "palistinian problem" when it was realy all created by the arabs themselves.
