Gaza had been occupied longer by Egypt than it was by Israel.
Not really. Gaza was occupied by Egypt from 1948 to 1967. (19 years). For the first nine of those, it was autonomous under the All-Palestine Government, an Egyptian sponsored Palestinian organization. Gaza was occupied by the Zionist Entity from 1967 to 2005 (38 years). Simple math is confusing for wingnuts, I know.

Gaza wasn’t on the table because the Egyptians had already declined to take it back.
Egypt never really claimed it. They were always of the position it was part of Palestine.
As for the Arabs (gee now you just moved the goalposts a mile at least) losing any land, the ARABs never owned Transjordan. The Turks did and they were happy to sell worthless land to the Jews.
I think you are a little confused. VERY FEW JEWS lived in Palestine in 1914. Only 94,000 Jews compared to 525,000 Muslims (and 70,000 Christians)

Only after the British stole the land and started resettling Europe's Jews in Palestine (because they didn't want to live with Jews, either!) did this become much of an issue.
The ancestors of the Palestinians had nothing to say about the deal, just like you have nothing to say when YOUR landlord sells the rental property you are Living in and gives you thirty days to vacate.
Um, no, guy, Imperialism isn't the same as a landlord situation. In fact, after WWI, the Allies determined that "Self-Determination" was important, which is why all these new nations were carved out of the corpses of the Hohenzollern, Hapsburg, Romanov, and Ottoman Empires. Turning Palestine into a British Colony by Proxy was a violation of the principles the League of Nations stood for.
Because the God you don't believe in gave it to them, because they are the most superior 0.2% of the world's population, and because the European and Near Eastern Jews wanted it.
The God I don't believe in did nothing when half of them became Bars of Soap and Lampshades.
Just like he did nothing when my mom died of cancer, and everyone prayed for her to get better.
The difference is I stopped believing in fake deities when presented with evidence they don't exist.
