An argument is a proposition or claim backed by evidence and reasoning that the evidence is logical for backing the claim. Benny Morris makes a compelling argument about the causes of the Palestinian exodus from Palestine in 1947-49. What are the main propositions of Morris’ argument and what is his assessment of the relationship between “transfer thinking” among Zionist leaders, and the actual exodus of Palestinian refugees in 1947-49? What, according to Morris’s critics, are the weaknesses of his argument? Frame your paper in the form of an argument about Morris and his critics.
