This is propagandistic, superficial, selectively skewed and unconvincing. It begins with the assumption that Zionism is right and ends by portraying everyone who disagreed as wrong and evil. One can certainly criticize Palestinian conduct, but we would not react so differently from the Palestinians if someone declared that our land was their god-given ancestral homeland and the site of a state which they would rule. There are hundreds of books written on the Middle East. Reading more of them may not change your views, but it would convey the nuances and difficulties of the situation that this article ignores or denies.

Nope. It begins by assuming that the Arab Nationalists agreed to the Zionist request for one sliver of the Middle East....
...which they did.
The Arab Nationalists got their independent Arab Nations; they must stick by the deal, and acknowledge Jewish Palestinian rightful sovereignty over Jewish Palestine's independent Nation: Israel.
A deal is a deal.
