Like American Indians insisting they still owned this country.
EXCEPT ! American Indians did, in fact, own/control this country at one time. The Arabs who are claiming to be Palestinians never did own/control Palestine. That area was clearly Jewish for centuries with periods of control by others. But these present day Palestinians? Never.

Not as a unified body, but by many warring factions known as tribes and also nations.
Edward Curtis "Vanishing Race".
Curtis' capturing history. A nation vanishing. There is a list of former great empires. The Babylonians. The Egyptians. The "Holy" Roman Empire. The Khans. The Incas. The British. The Dutch. The Japanese. The Soviets. etc. May be God's Judgement, may be plague, may be technical inferiority, may be betrayal. May be the most lethal - The Maths. When I look to the north, to Asia, I think of this photo. Australia has a population of 25 million and the Communist Chinese Regime has 1400 million. Will we remain in their shadow forever. They will go to the moon and elsewhere, but will we? Am I depressed or being realistic?
