Israel-bashers fail to see the Arab train leaving the station

It's a busy time for Israel-haters. So what's new? Well, a lot.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), the Democratic congresswoman who has a lengthening record of lies about Israel, last week tweeted the boiler-plate falsehood that Israel's foundation in 1948 had entailed the "ethnic cleansing" of the Palestinian Arabs who were "indigenous" to the land.
The Jews, of course, are the only people for whom the land of Israel was ever their national home. And the Palestinian Arabs' displacement took place in the war of extermination against the nascent State of Israel, waged by Arab states who told them to leave on the basis that they would return as conquerors.
