It's Time to Remember the Jewish Refugees
(Times of Israel) Irwin Cotler - Had the Arabs accepted the UN Partition Resolution, there would have been no 1948 Arab-Israeli war and no refugees. Regrettably, the pain and plight of 850,000 Jews uprooted and displaced from Arab countries has been expunged from both the Middle East peace and justice agenda for 67 years.
