Israel vs. Palestinians

The Palestinians like to think they have the right to land that is now Israel, due to both a League of Nations AND a United Nations mandate. I’m not sure how binding such mandates are, but the Palestinials “went to war” about it—and lost, many times. So there it is. That land belongs by right of conquest, to Israel. The Palestinians have no claim to it. But they still want it for the site of a future Palestinian State—which will never exist—in the lifetimes of those now living, at least. "Following the Holocaust, in which 6 million Jews were killed by the Nazis, pressure on Britain increased to allow Jewish immigration to Palestine. In 1947, the UN partitioned the land into Arab and Jewish states. The Arabs did not accept the partition and war broke out. The Jews won a decisive victory, expanded their state and created several hundred thousand Palestinian refugees. The Arab states refused to recognize Israel or make peace with it. Wars broke out in 1956, 1967, 1973 and 1982, and there were many terror raids and Israeli reprisals. Each side believes different versions of the same history. Each side views the conflict as wholly the fault of the other and expects an apology,” neither of which will happen." Jews and Palestinians will NEVER agree, and Joe Biden was wrong to criticize Israel for planning on using its own land to build homes for its citizens while Barack Obama was wrong to tell Joe to do it. But then, Obama has been wrong on about everything there is. (Mid East Web)
