The Nation of Israel did not force them to leave and the Arabs that stayed (about have the Arab population) have reaped the benefits of Israeli citizenship.
Hmm, I wonder, I wonder what you would do given a similar situation where you and your family have been living for generations and some foreign power now tells you your home is no longer your home, but you can stay if you like, but be aware foreigners will be coming to live alongside you, as it is their home really, not yours. As years pass by people move out or homes and businesses become vacant through natural process and the foreigners take up residence all around, perhaps closing or changing certain aspects of your community that you and your family had known for years. Now of those incomers, they may seem alright, but they may have a different culture, language and hell, maybe their skin is a different colour,what would you do in such a situation stay where you are, or move to where people of your own kind are ?
Well, for example, in many places in the UK where we have admitted hoardes of foreigners who failed to integrate, but grouped together, buying up and buying out everything in their locale and even changing the language to something unitellligible, shop signs and such.Western churches boarded up or turned into the foreigners house of worship, the pub closing through lack of clientele, many people who have lived in places all their lives as their ancestors have, have moved out to be amongst their own kind and familiarity, a new location far better than their home just to have familiarity again.
But in the Israel situation, there is no doubt Jews bear suspicion and dislike for Arabs, would you stay if you were made as welcome as a fart in a space suit?
