… during the late 1940s

“… during the late 1940s, more than 40 million refuges around the world were resettled, except for one people. They [Palestinian arabs] remain defined as refugees, wallowing 60 years later in 59 UNRWA refugee camps, financed by $400 million contributed annually by nations of the world to nurture the promise of the ‘right of return’ to Arab neighborhoods and Arab villages from 1948 that no longer exist.”
