Why doesn't the civilized world follow that logic? because the civilized world is not the Middle East. In here, the more "humanity" and "charity" you show, the more they see it as weakness and attack you. Welcome to our neighborhood.
Pfft. That's a convenient excuse for Israel to hold and expand on land it never had any intention of giving back from the beginning. Be honest and call it what it is - theft. Don't pretend there is anything more noble than that.
In order for it to be theft, there needs to be an actual entity from which this was stolen. Look at the west bank, for instant. To who it beloged? Palestine? rubbish, of course, as there was never an actual state called Palestine. Jordan? nah ah, as Jordan itself occupied it illegaly, starting from 48. So if I didn't take it from any actual owner, since there was no owner of this, how can you call me a thief?Jordan? nah ah, as Jordan itself occupied it illegaly, starting from 48.
Whose land did Jordan occupy? If it was nobodies, why couldn't they just say it was theirs? And if it was nobodies, why is it occupied Palestinian territory now?
You cannot call occupation to something that is ownerless. And they (Jordan) never claimed it because it was never theirs, that's the things exactly. Why do their call it "Palestinian occupied territory"? for the same reason people belive Palestinians are originated in Philistines. Because they're misinformed.
The Palestinians are among the original inhabitants of the area. Arguing otherwise is as fruitless as arguing that Jews weren't among the original inhabitants. Those arguments resolve nothing except to feed hate.
I don't say they were original inhabitants (even though this point can be argued about), I say I don't appreciate their solution to the problem, which is all Jews in sea.
