I'll chime in on the first question: What happened to the population
of Palestinians when the Allies formed the new nation of Israel?

First off, it was the United Nations that created Israel.

On 14 May 1948, the day the State of Israel came into existence, five
Arab armies invaded the country from every side. In propaganda
broadcasts, they ordered the Arabs living there to leave so the armies
could slaughter at will. They were promised they could return in
triumph after the expected victory in the Jihad or Holy War.

The invading Arab armies were soundly defeated. An estimated 600,000
fled and became refugees with no country. Those who stayed, and their
children and grandchildren, are full-fledged citizens of the State of
Israel (there are approximately 1 million Arab Israelis).

The so-called ?Palestinian refugees? have not been allowed to settle
in any Arab nation. For an Arab country to allow them to settle would
be to admit that they were refugees from the country of Israel, and
they do not recognize Israel?s existence. If there's no Israel, there
can be no refugees FROM Israel, see?

They have been supported in camps since 1948. The Arab countries--
among the richest nations of the world-- have never contributed a
penny to their maintenance; have never contributed a penny to their
brethren living in miserable, squalid camps.  The Arabs drive
Mercedes, Land Rovers, Jaguars, and Rolls Royces, build opulent
palatial homes, and are among the most conspicuous of consumers, but
refuse to provide support to the very people they claim are the worst
victims of oppression by the United States and Israel.

Through the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, the US pays over
60% of the price of operating the camps.
