The palestinian arabs left their land and the jews DIDN'T - in a conflict meant to KILL THE JEWS, NOT THE PALESTINIAN ARABS.
I wonder, in what logical calculation can one pretend the claims of ownership by the palestinians to defeat the claims of ownership by the jews???? It is an absurdity of epic proportions no reasonable individual would even deign to contemplate!
And your assertion becomes more absurd from the fact that the war of aggression and extermination of the jews was conducted upon the instigation and cooperation of these same palestinian arabs and their leadership.
No apology is required for an act of SELF-PRESERVATION, in a conflict NOT of their own making.
No apology is required for the inalienable right of a people to DECLARE NATIONHOOD.
No apology is required to undertake ANY AND ALL MEANS to ensure the integrity and continued existence of the jewish nation.
The only apology in this forum comes from your continued justification of the use of force towards the megalomaniac end of exterminating the jews. Not only are the arabs completely incompetent of achieving such a task, they have the temerity to enlist the aid of the international community in their petty adventurism.
The Palestinians fled out of fear of being killed. They were refugees. Usually refugees are allowed back. Israel did not allow them back once the war was over. They took their houses and give them to Jewish citizens. Finally, under international pressure they relented and let a few - a very few back in.
No, it isn't absurb in the occupied territories. Their cause is just as righteous as that of the Israeli's and their plight just as unjust. That's the problem.
It's also important to remember that the Israeli's had a part in instigating hostilities in order to gain territory - this has been openly admitted by a number of high level Israeli military and political figurres.
It's time to put the lie of poor little Israel vs. big bad arabs to rest. There was plenty of wrong doing done by both sides.
