Michael,
If the Arabs care so much about their Arab Palestinian brothers:
Why can't Palestinian "refugees" be citizens of Lebanon or Jordan where they have lived for 30-50-75+ years? How about Kuwait, which kicked out all the Palis it claims to care so much about?
Wouldn't that be one step to solve the problem?
The Palestinians Arabs are pawns of Israels arab neighbors, which is why there can be no peace until the neighboring countries accept Israel.
They didn't accept Israel in 1948 when there was no clamor for a palestinian state, what makes you think that they will do it after there is a Palestinian state?
Giving them a state now gives justification for their historic rejectionism.
Using your logic, how about Israel expels all arabs, then waits a few years, and annexes it all? Then we will have facts on the ground and can ignore history, as you suggest we do.

Israel took in all the Jewish refugees, while the Arab world refused to do the same (cause after all they told the Arabs, who would otherwise been citizens of Israel) to leave Israel become they were going to unleash war on Israel.

Basically, yeah - but that would mean that Israel had to ignore international law, like the Czech and Poles did after WW2, and the Germans during the war. Indeed, the Poles and Czech were rewarded for the expelling of Germans with the land they got illegally.
Palestinians are not wanted in any country, like the Kurds. They should get their country and their chance to become a peaceful nation. If it doesn´t work, international troops still can go in...
