I generally side with Israel. Yeah, they are kind of dicks, but I would be too if I were in their position. They were run out of their homeland centuries ago, suffered the worst atrocity in human history in the holocaust, and when they did get their homeland back their Arab neighbors invaded them on three separate occasions (48, 67, 73). It sucks what happened and is happening to Palestine, but they are not the first country to lose land, and not the last to suffer civilian casualties in war. In regard to the current conflict in Gaza, I know if Greenland start firing rockets at my home country of Canada, threatening my friends and family, I would have no qualms about bombing the living **** out of them.
A people cannot claim land that their FOREFATHERS lost centuries ago. What's done is done.
Awesome. So Israel just needs to wait another 50 years or so until all the people in Palestine that were alive when it was independent die, then Israel can claim uncontested ownership of it. Cool beans.
