Oh? And when did the palestinians "own" it? Not before the British, not before the Ottoman Empire, not before...ever. The land has never been under Palestinian rule...ever.

Now you have it!
The Palestinians have no claim whatsoever based on history.
In fact, the reference to claims based on centuries or millennia old history is ridiculous by anyone.
As long as both sides are lost in the past, there will be no moving forward into the future....
It is what it is, as it is now. The Jewish are not going to leave and go elsewhere, nor are the palestinians. Therefore they both need to learn to live together and eventually share leadership.
As long as palestinians send their children into Jewish areas as living bombs, as long as they support Hamas and Hezbollah's activities they will continue to be viewed as barbarians and will continue to be the whipping boy. As long as they continue as they have, they will continue to reap the results they have been. That, sir, is the definition of insanity.
They know (KNOW!) what the results will be when Hamas, for instance, attacks Israel from palestinian areas...and yet they continue to allow them to do so. Talk about candidates for Darwinian awards!! My god, those people refuse to learn anything. Even their fellow Arabs do not want to have anything to do with them.

Desperate? I disagree....
Desperate people will do whatever it takes to see to it their children are better off than themselves. They will not load em up with bombs and send them off to blow themselves up.
Why is it the Arab nations want nothing to do with them?
A country has the right, and the responsibility to protect and defend itself from attackers.

The palestinians were there first. Can you prove that? Or are you referring to just prior to 1948?
Once again, we are engaging in the no-win, no solution arguing over who has squatter's rights.
If that is the case, then the Jews ruling Israel for the last 60+ years have earned their squatter's rights lol
The palestinians have never ruled the land known today as Israel. Ever.

They should have thought about that before they started attacking Israel.
They are lucky they are even getting a warning at all.
My sentiments exactly.
But I worry that the muslim horde are setting Israel up by nailing Palestine to the cross to act as a martyr. It just took longer to elicit a response than they anticipated.
Muslim horde?? Like world of Warcraft horde? Lol your silly.
