Scott Ritter is a delusional Russian-Hamas stooge whose alternative facts about Israel-Palestine are as reality-based as his Ukrainian casualty figures.
But watch Corey Gil-Shuster's Ask Project, and decide for yourself who's reality-based and who's not: https://www.timesofisrael.com/anything-that-happens-to-the-jews-they-will-exaggerate/
Starting in 2011, by 2016 he'd already interviewed more than 3000 West Bank Arabs and Israelis (both Arabs and Jews) using questions submitted by viewers.
The stolen land myth is anti-semitic drivel....oh, it's those shyster Jews tricking us poor honest gentiles again. It's as bigoted as it is inaccurate.
Elan Journo debunks the fraudulent map meme you used: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btVFgqkgkzw
Almost none of the land in that viral fraudulent meme map you used was privately owned by individual Arabs, but was public land owned by the Ottoman and then the British mandatory government. Then there's the long list of Jewish settlements destroyed by Arabs in 1920, 1929 and 1936-39 and the 850000 Jews whose land and property were stolen by the Arab states that pogromed and expelled them starting with the pro-Nazi Farhud Baghdad pogrom in 1941, which killed hundreds and triggered the emigration of thousands, which entailed theft on a scale that dwarfs what Arabs lost in 1948.
Jews bought the land you say they stole from absentee effendi landlords living in Cairo and Istanbul, much of it empty swamp and desert. Arab and Ottoman landlords were land speculators and parcel consolidators who strong-armed their smallholders and tenants into selling contiguous pieces to Jewish buyers paying 5x the market price while they said look at these dumb Jews paying up for useless, infertile land.
50 years later the soon to be assassinated King Abdullah, who told Golda Meir, "but you can live under my protection", said the Jews had created a paradise with irrigation and modern farming practices.
Many of the so-called Palestinians you claim the land was stolen from were illegal immigrants from the Hauran, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon and Iraq attracted to the interwar economic boom created by Jewish investment.
"Britain might have developed the port of Haifa as a naval base and oil port even had there been no Jews in Palestine, the fact remains that Haifa's growth was closely connected to the development of Jewish Palestine. It was in Haifa that in 1905 Baron Rothschild set up the "Great Mills" - the first industrial enterprise in Palestine - and during the Mandate period Haifa became the home of the only cement plant in the country (Nesher), the largest factory of edible oil and soap (Shemen), the only industrial-scale glass factory (Phoenicia) and iron foundry (Vulcan). In Eastern Palestine (Transjordan), in the absence of Jewish investment, the British presence did not generate any comparable economic growth; it was Western Palestine that continued to be a magnet to the Arabs of Transjordan." https://noarabpalestinianstate.blogspot.com/2019/04/whose-palestine-apart-from-who-critics.html
In 1936 the Damascus newspaper Al Ayam wrote about whole villages in the Hauran being emptied out by migration to mandatory Palestine:

The only British mandatory government officer who threatened to create a scandal about the migration sieve that British mandatory Palestine had become was assassinated in 1931 and his case left to wither. Never before or since did the British Colonial Office do so much to hush up a case of one of their own being murdered and so little to solve it.
The Jews are the indigenous people of Israel. Reread the title search on the real estate I already sent: there were no Palestinians when Moses came out of the river to find his clothes missing.
"A few dates seem to be in order for those claiming the Jews started 'occupying' Palestine at the time of the British Mandate.
Tel Aviv, founded in 1909, during the Ottoman rule….(going on for 400 years).
Kfar Saba, founded in 1903, during the Ottoman rule. Petah Tikva, founded in 1878, during the Ottoman rule.
Meah Shearim, the Jewish orthodox neighborhood of Jerusalem, founded in 1874, during the Ottoman rule.
Hadera, founded in 1891, during the Ottoman rule.
Ness Tziona, founded in 1883, during the Ottoman rule.
Rishon LeTzion, founded in 1882, during the Ottoman rule.
Rehovot, founded in 1890, during the Ottoman rule.
Many Jewish towns were created before 1948, during the...British mandate:
Bat Yam (1926), Bnei Brak (1924), Giv'at Shmuel (1944), Givatayim (1922), Herzliya (1924), Holon (1935), Kfar Yona (1932), Kiryat Ata (1925), Kiryat Bialik (1934), Kiryat Motzkin (1934), Kiryat Ono (1939), Kiryat Yam (1941), Nahariya (1935), Nesher (1923), Netanya (1929), Ra'anana (1922), Ramat Gan (1921), Ramat HaSharon (1923) and the list goes on.
Those towns were not Arab villages that were bulldozed by the IDF to replace the Muslim population with Jews…before 1948, the IDF didn't exist…., but were created after a legal land purchase by the Jews living by the hundreds of thousands in the region, before 1948.
With names such as Ness Tziona (the miracle of Zion), Rishon LeTzion (the first of Zion) or Herzliya (based on the name Herzl), it seems pretty certain Zionists created those towns.
Meanwhile, as soon as the British mandate began, Arabs set to work attacking Jewish settlements."
The Arabs are late arriving colonizers from the Arabian peninsula.
Israeli Arabs don't live in an apartheid regime. But the Arabs for 1400 years practiced Jim Crow style dhimmitude apartheid with Jews, Christians, Bahais and Hindu minorities. As always, their projections are confessions.
And they already have a Palestinian state called Jordan. Palestinian nationality is a purely tactical invention, as PLO leader Zuheir Mohsen and Hamas have said: https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-tFJct_vIeOs/Ucqbg6i8nyI/AAAAAAAAEF4/Paf9GbryP2I/s1600/983960_537243949658357_1376736331_n.jpg
