My great grandfather purchased a piece of land in 1925 from Jewish group in what was then British Palestine it is still in the family name today in northern part of Israel. The Arab claim that the Jews stole the land is false. I have the deed to prove it.

Joan Peters is vindicated in the first three paragraphs.
There already is a Palestinian State, it’s called, “Jordan.”
“The following is a remarkable speech given in 1939 by John William McCormack (1891 - 1980) of Massachusetts, Representative to the House, on a ‘Jewish Homeland’ in Palestine. Protesting harshly the British (White Papers) restriction on Jewish immigration while Arab immigration is allowed to flow. Citing the great approval by 5 presidents and an array of high officials all praising the great achievement done by the Jews in Palestine, uplifting and up-building the land. He notices the Arab immigration of at least 150,000 (equal to that of the Jews’) from neighboring countries as well as an overall rise in Arab population (such as, an over 50% rise during 17 Years 1920-1937), all due to Jews’ work in the “vacant land” of Palestine, that all of a sudden made it all attractive.”
Not unlike the Mexicans who now want to claim the SW. They didn’t want anything to do with that area until Americans sweat and bled to turn it into something.
Unfortunately, attitudes among a wide segment of the 'Rats have changed in the last several decades, to the point where there is now a significant statistical difference in attitudes between the two major parties, both among the political class and the rank and file.
