Answerers here refer to "Palestine" as though there were such a place in the Middle East.
All the territories the Israelis now possess are theirs by legal right -- the right conferred by the League of Nations Mandates Commission, when it carefully defined the territory which would be set aside, from the vast territories in the Middle East that had formerly been in the control of the Ottoman Turks as part of their empire, and which had been won by the Allies.
Palestine was the place that became Israel in 1948.

The reason is very complicated. The world is under the premonition that this land was Palestinian land, but the reality is that The land of Israel has been held by many many different countries over the years. There is actually no one called a palestinian. Well there is but it's of no significance. You see, when the Jews were kicked out by the Romans more than 2000 yrs ago, they Romans named it palestine to spite the Jews because our enemy was the Philistines who at the time had disappeared many years before that. It has stuck ever since then. It's not as if they have been there forever. There are people that claim to be plaestinian (and they are) that just got there. I could equate it to an American who just became a citizen. Of course he is American but that only entitles him to the rights that other Americans have. In the case of the Palestinians, they don't have a historical right like they say they do. So you see they have no right. Where does it come from. Well they are very good propagandaists. How good. Well I remember Arafat once gave a speech about how he is a peaceful country and that Israel is terrible because it goes after innocent people. Then in the same day he makes a speech in Arabic, and declares we will fight till the last man is dead. We must recognize that they are terrorists, and we must fight until there are no terrorists. Also I would like to point out that the Arab countries in the area refuse to accept the Palestinians. Why? Because it would seem if there is such a hamanitarian crisis then their own people would be first in line to help. But they don't of course because that would be admitting defeat which just goes to w ho that they really don;t care about the humanitarian problems. They just want to win.

They are returning some (not all) of the land they stole in 73, 67 and 56. If they had not taken the land in the first place, there probably would be no palestinian terrorists.
Israel and Palestine should recognize they both have a right to exist, and respect each other.

HAHA! I guess you didn't hear the recent news. Israel is ILLEGALLY settling into Palestinian land, AGAIN!
You are too funny my friend. Israel giving land to the terrorists, ha, and I am the Queen of England.
More like taking land, then giving it back, and taking it back again. The dominos keep falling.

because it has been decided. do you know israels violates the laws created in the bible by destroying the orchards?
i like how people criticize UN decisions when talking about israel. after all israel is a UN created state. yet that is the only one critics agree with. treating each others like humans is the only way to peace. neither side is innocent.
edit. to those that say there was/is no palestine. i guess the british and jews are/were liars. also that claim is as insane as those that say israel has no right to exist or the holocaust never happened. you also forget that palestinian refugees live in lebanon.

Avram, i'm a Jew and that i stay in new york and that i have been to inform Aviv and Gaza and Jericho , I really were chatting with diverse Palestinians and that i studied center east study at INSEAD . and that i have a level in political SC. i imagine what you're saying isn't real AND BIASED. THE historic past of the middle east as you recognize and that i understand it , supplies the Palestinians the right to exist and provides them the right to strive against for his or her freedom. you recognize what i propose , throughout the time of my visits to Israel and Palestine , i got here upon out that we as Jews are nonetheless ghetto orientated and paranoid. you want to sit Avram and picture , study and attempt to rationalize what you're saying. we are a paranoid race with a terror that we are able to be demolished at any time and we've enlargement inclinations andin short we've topics . and as on your question as to why ought to arab ppl supply their land to palastine , it really is not honest , imagine you're of their shoes what is going to you do . have not paused for a 2d to imagine , why did not the U. S. supply us allow us to assert a city in it is continent to stay in it . Why palastine , and why annalhit an entier u . s . a . , take over land and sources and flow on a genocidal frenzy killing danger free ppl. on the starting up we were residing between those ppl in peace we did not have issues , now that's growing worse , you recognize why , because we would have beloved better of their land and we would have beloved to kill them and assassin their aims and hopes. please be sensible and talk with an open recommendations and heart. it truly is with the aid of words that you're saying and proposals that you spread , we are hated treaded badly and idea-about as animals on a hunt to mistikate an complete u . s . a . of danger free ppl , who's purely crime is thier seriousnes to Exsist .

The reason for leaving Gaza is simply based on demographics. Look it up in a dictionary and then maybe you will quit thinking that Sharon did that out of the goodness of his heart.

Terrorist is a relative term that depends on your perspective. The Palistinians rightfully call the Israelis terrorists. After all, they send in tanks and helicopters to blow up houses. How is that not terrorism?
