3. Why is diaspora attracting so much attention?
4. How do the twentieth century Palestinian diasporas draw the attention of the world leaders?
5. Why have the scholars been studying about the diasporas with great interest?

i) People leave their own countries as they are sometimes forced to do so or they want to leave their own 

ii) Yes, I do think that there have been, massive diasporas in Africa. Africa suffers from different natural disasters which forces people to move from their own country to other countries 

iii) Though the world has seen many diasporas, scholars have been studying the phenomenon of diasporas in recent  years. They are interested in diasporas because of globalisation.

iv) The Palestinian diasporas have caught the attention of the world leaders as they had to suffer a lot to leave their country and settle in other places. Their plight and sufferings have caused great concern among the world leaders. 

v) Though the causes of diaspora are quite unclear, scholars have been studying the phenomenon of diasporas in  recent years to know the causes behind people's movement from their own country to another country, the plight  of the diasporic people, etc.
