Isn't the "occupied" land that the "palestinians" claim actually land that Israel took after they were attacked by the Arabs ? And aren't palestinians who claim to be "refugees" those who were told (by the attacking Arabs) to leave these areas, until Israel had been wiped off the map, then they could move back in victory ? An aggressive attacker who loses in a war that they started doesn't get to say "oops--that didn't work, we were only kidding, give us the land back", do they ??
You are absolutely correct. Not only that, but the "occupied" land, and much more, was promised to the Jewish people by the Allies after World War I. The Turkish Empire, which had brutally ruled the mostly barren land for many hundreds of years, was in cahoots with the Kaiser during the war.
