Should Israel and the West Bank be given back to England?

Question

What's all this talk of giving it to the arabs? Before the idea to make 2 countries out of the land, one for Jews and another for arabs (a deal which only the arabs rejected), those people never had any claims to the land.

But gluki69, if you want to go to previous control before the British, why stop at the Ottoman turks? Going back to the beginning, since there are no more Canaanites, the land would have to go to the Jews.

Answer 1

Give it to mexico, then everybody would just leave.

Answer 2

No...the land should have been given to the Arabs ,as promised...Of course the idea of 2 countries was rejected by the Arabs.If someone would come to your house saying that will take half of it because the land your house is build on used to be his ancestors 2000 years ago,would you accept that? I doubt it.So why should Arabs accept it?
As for the reason that the Jews were there first,that they used to live there 2000 years ago...well let's all leave our lands and give them back to the ones that lived there 2000 years ago,'cos they were there first...Europeans from US should give the land back to the American natives,same for Australia...

Answer 3

I don't think nothing is ever going to be resolved the Jews and the Arabs are always going to be at war with each other. Even if it given back to England.

Answer 4

Quite honestly, your question lacks any logic or meaning. "Be given back" - by whom? They're in nobody's jurisdiction but their own.
However, if you wish to follow that line of though, why not give it back to Turkey and let them restore the Ottoman Empire? Plus, most historians would agree, and by most I mean all, that they were both there WAY BEFORE the British even existed.
Furthermore, what "talk" of giving it to the arabs? The only talk that caries any weight is the talk of the Israeli government, and I assure you they're not entertaining such ideas.

Answer 5

nothing is going to be resolved, englands is not going to get anything back.
