These Palestinians who got their land taken from them, first by the Brits, the League of Nations and then the UN, over their ignored objections deserve to fight for it and every civilian in Israel who uses this contraband land Palestinians have a right to fight, for it. Any nation or people including ours would know they have a right to do the same.

Ok... tell me what you think of my "adjustments" on your statement? (In bold in case you don't remember what you wrote)

These Native Americans who got their land taken from them, first by the Brits[no change needed], the Spanish and then the US, over their ignored objections deserve to fight for it and every civilian in USA who uses this contraband land Native Americans have a right to fight, for it. Any nation or people including ours would know they have a right to do the same.

Thanks for posting my words, as they need correction., to wit: . . .every civilian in Israel who uses this contraband land Palestinians have a right to [Insert : ,has no right to] fight, for it.
My family would never have disagreed with your sense of fairness, as an early ancestor lived with Indians, by whom he was far better treated than by the Brit leaders. In fact, our whole colonial state lived harmoniously with an Indian population until a CT colony came in and killed our neighbor Indians, leading them to believe we did it. However, the ensuing dissension has been settled by agreements providing reservations for all the tribes, just as Palestinians would now agree to allowing Israel to exist.
