Your source specifies 1947–1949 Palestine war, so I'll focus on that.
Most of the villages in your map are marked as part of the Jewish state that was officially accepted by United Nations: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Partition_Plan_for_Palestine
This was the only plan at the time the British mandate on Palestine was over.
According to the source above, the Arab leaders used arguments such as: "We will sweep them [the Jews] into the sea." or "We shall eradicate Zionism."
In this war there were massive massacres from both sides: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killings_and_massacres_during_the_1948_Palestine_war#List
