Isn't that the logic for kicking the palestinians out in the first place?
If every progeny of a tribe of natives had a claim to their ancestral grounds... I can't explain how difficult or stupid it would be to try and resolve it.
The fact of the matter is that Israel is there now. If you're going to hand it back to the Palestinians because they were there first, then it's also going to have to go back to every other tribesman who ever pissed in a bush on their borders.
And you're going to have to do the same for everyone else too.
The Ireland comment is diversionary? since The scale of occupation has nothing to do with it's correctness, and this was the point of your comment (and my retort).
But Ireland is ruled now by the same people it was ruled by in 800AD. The vikings. So let's get on with our lives, eh?
There is no useful logic for these situations. The Palestinians are right to feel they've been treated badly when their land was taken. The Israelis are right to feel it's their land because it was given to them and a lot of them were born there.
There's no simple solution to it, other than to try to get them to share.
Which 10% of each side won't, because they're fanatical. And the fanatics kill people on both sides, drawing in the less fanatical ones.
