The arabs were trying to find a peaceful way to integrate the Jewish community into the arab world. Yet the zionists had maximalist ideas to colonize the entire land. As for the Jewish refugees. That was only a result of the creation of Israel. Those refugees would not have existed without the partition of 48.
The creation of Israel in itself was an act of war, not the retaliation that followed.

See, Palestinians reiterate that the very existence of Israel is an act of war to them. This reinforces that Israel has no choice, but to fight for its own existence. It's like the very existence of Ukraine is a personal insult to Putin.
Thing is, EVEN if it was an act of war (it wasn't), it was 75 years ago. You conquered the land with an act of war at the first place. Then you got displaced with what you believe was an act of war in 1948. It's as if England would keep massacring German children as retaliation for bombing it during WW2, which was definitely an act of war and happened merely five years earlier.
Let it go.
