    It's not an opinion of events but fact. But let's move on. Here's a simple question for you that requires just a yes or no answer. Do you justify the founding of the Zionist state as a response to the rise of fascism and to the horrors of the Nazi Holocaust that exterminated six million Jews?

    You probably don't remember that Israel attacked Egypt and the Egyptians were already engaged in the civil war in Yemen. It wasn't 14 nations. It was five.

    No. And reclaiming your homeland needs no justification.

    The Arabs didn't immigrate in huge numbers from Europe. How would you feel if Mexicans took over Arizona, confiscated the land and permitted a few Arizonians to remain?

    It ought not to get you down TOO much because it's not Israel's land anyway.

    You are right, the Spanish did conquer Mexico in 1519-21. It was 1541 for the colony at Cape-Rouge, present day Quebec City.

    Funny that those stamps and paper money used the star of david and hebrew script on them...

    The Arabs did immigrate into the territory after the Muslim invasion and occupation . And a Large influx following the Turkish loss of control on the territory.

    No it's just your own interpretation of those historical events. You weren't there personnaly to witness them so you are using third person knowledge which by definition is flawed.

    So, logically, on that basis, the contemporary Italian ancestors of ancient Roman residents of Londinium are entitled by law to "reclaim" - without justification - the title deeds to my land and property here in London? That's the logical extension of your line of argumentation which is clearly absurd. Perhaps you can enlighten us all as to when the Biblical imperative implicit in your obscurantist "argument" trumped modern day international law? I think you need to consult with your real estate agent in the heavens. Good luck with that.

    its absurd to suggest that Israel becomes one's homeland when they convert to Judaism.

    and yes, most Jews have converts in their blood.

    No more absurd than becoming a Canadian or American after filling an immigration form.

    Yes, never refuted that, But main population of Arabs came much much later. My point is that both Jews and Arabs were in that land, saying Jews were invaders while Arabs Native is simply not true.

    It doesn't matter. The land didn't belong to the palestinian in 1948. They were squatter on the land, even if they've been there for 100,000,000 years...
    You want to blame someone, blame the Turks, the French and the Brits. They're the one who drew those lines on the map. They could have drawn one more and create a palestinian country but they chose not to. Their decision were totaly arbitrary to please some regional compliant despot. There are really no reason for Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, the KSA or UAE to even have the borders that they have. All of them were reconstituted arbitrarly by the French and Brits following WW1.

    International law? Do you deny the UN the right to decide on what is and is international law? THE UN created the Mandates for homeland, so its absolutely legal, and absolutely right. Also Italians are not Romans.

    You're wrong about that and even if it was it doesn't change the fact that Israel is the only one who decides who can become an Israeli. The fact that they favor people of one religion over other is just the same as canada favoring peole of european descent or the Vatican favoring Catholics. It's their right to do.

    Doesn't change a thing. Egypt was hostile to Israel from its creation. It would have been foolish for israel to sit on their asses and do nothing when an hostile nation masses it's armored division a few mile from your border.

    People tend to forget the Italia was only a small agricultural province of Rome and not the other way around...

    Why is the rule of international law such a frightening thing for you? Your semantics aside, my point stands which you can't address because it has a sound logical basis. Your deflection aside, the "argument" you forwarded is absurd and I illustrated precisely why it's absurd.

    according to international law, Israel is Occupying the West Bank and has violated many of their obligations under the law of Occupying Powers.
