Neocon Tribalism vs. Jewish Universalism

Martina Anderson, an Irish member of the European Parliament, said Israeli lobbyists were “all over this place like a rash” during a parliament meeting on Wednesday.

On her Facebook Page, Ms. Anderson links to a video posted by AJ+ titled What happened to the Palestinians? It can be seen on youtube and the AJ+ Facebook page.
The video narrator states that after Israeli Independence, 80% of the Palestinians fled while "the rest stayed behind where they lived withour rights under military rule until they were given Israëli citizenship in 1967."
Correction: Palestinians who stayed behind after the creation of Israel actually received citizenship in 1949, but lived under a separate military law until 1966. We regret that mistake. https://www.facebook.com/ajplusenglish/videos/730476790427164/?pnref=story

The video is on youtube without the correction. What other mistakes were made?

Couldn't the producers of the video do even some basic research such as finding out about "Amin-Salim Jarjora, an Israeli Arab politician who served as a member of the Knesset for the Democratic List of Nazareth between 1949 and 1951"?
