The majority of Palestinian Arabs were natives

[P F Tinmore]

According to the British text of population changes published in 1930 Jewish population growth in Palestine was about 48,000 people annually; 8,000 from natural growth and 40,000 due to immigration, while Palestinian Arab population growth was about 30,000 person annually; 22,000 from natural growth and 8,000 due to immigration. This indicates that the majority of Jews in Palestine were foreigners, and majority of Palestinian Arabs were natives.

"From analyses of rates of increase of the Muslim population of the three Palestinian sanjaks, one can say with certainty that Muslim immigration after the 1870s was small. Had there been a large group of Muslim immigrants their numbers would have caused an unusual increase in the population and this would have appeared in the calculated rate of increase from one registration list to another... Such an increase would have been easily noticed; it was not there"

Most of North America, South America and Australia were inhabited by Native peoples who are now a minority in their own country, it happens.

The only difference is that now ethnic cleansing and stealing land are illegal.

It was not back then.

So Israel would be cool with you if this was 1896 instead of 2011?

I would still have moral reservations but at least it would not be illegal.

Either way the Palestinians have the right to defend themselves.

Wasn't most of Israel purchased from Arabs anyways?

No, when the foreigners declared themselves to be a state in Palestine the Jews only owned about 7% of the land.

Than most of it was acquired in the wars Israel fought with its neighbors correct?

I am still unclear about Israel "winning" Palestinian land from Lebanon or Egypt.

It doesn't seem logical.

Exactly, Israel never took land from the Palestinians.

We are back to Israel winning Palestinian land from Lebanon or Egypt.

At the end of the 1948 war, the borders of Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and Palestine were unchanged from before the war. Where did Israel win land?

Well you are saying the Israelis are on Palestinian land right? so how did they get it? did they ask the Palestinians to quietly vacate the premisis?

That is true. Israel has no borders. It sits inside Palestine's borders. Israel cleared the land of Palestinians by military attacks on a civilian population. See Plan Dalet and The Nakba - 1948

International law states that it is inadmissible to acquire land by the threat or use of force. That is why the Palestinians consistently call for the enforcement of international law and Israel says no, no, no.

If Palestine was their own country where was their Military to defend itself?

Well, I guess we'd actually have a problem if that were actually happening by Isreal.

Problem is... its happening to the Jews and no one really cares..... AGAIN!

Britain would not allow them to have an army. By the time Britain ended its occupation, Israel had already taken half the country.

Since the geographic entity, called palestine, never existed as a sovereign independent arab entity, let us dispense with that occupational palisturdian drivel.
