Palestinians call the formation of the State of Israel a tragedy, they have a word for it, 'Nakba' and a day that commemorates the tragic displacement of tens of thousands of Palestinians after the Arab war against Isreal's formation failed and Israel annexed land abandoned by the Arab forces.
Their tragedy came about as a result of a war that was waged against Israel and the failure of the Arab forces to succeed in their mission.
