Of course, other errors exist in this letter. The Palestine she refers to is British Mandate Palestine, at a time when Jews and Arabs both regarded themselves as Palestinians, hence how the Jerusalem Post used to be called the Palestine Post. As well, in the 1948 war, Arabs are regarded as having fled (or were forced) what is now Israel at the behest of Arab armies who told them to flee pending war temporarily.
