So you disagree with the Jewish claim that the land belongs to them The Bible says they weren't the first ones. However, the Jews do have the excuse that God gave it to them. :>) All land ownership by Homo Saps, other than Aboriginal, started with the legitimization of the use of force. Nothing wrong with this. It is just the way things started. If you check American Indian History, you will find that the Indians that lost their Hunting Grounds had recently taken those grounds from other Indians. In some cases, as recently as 50 years before the White man took it. Look at the History of Britain. The Celts took the place from the Aborigines. They were then defeated by the Angles and the Saxons, who were defeated by the Normans. The Irish, who were defeated by Cromwell, were among the first ones to kick ass on the Western Indians, who were slaughtering one another when the Irish, Scots, etc, showed up. If you visit my Islands, you will be fed a load of crap about the peaceful Natives here, who were actually slaughtering one another at the time the white man showed up. The "Wonderful Civilization" they were supposed to have had was a tribal one where the bulk of the Natives were slaves to the Leaders. They could be killed if they as much as looked at the "Royalty." Rousseau's "Noble Savage" was dead wrong, of course, but still causes us no end of trouble with the Multiculturalists. I saw some woman reading a copy of Margaret Mead's "Coming of Age in Somoa" at Borders yesterday, and giggled to myself. This tome to multiculturalism is now a well known fraud, (The Somoan Women lied to her,) but still is read earnestly. By the way, you are misusing the word "Aborigines", Dictionary definition. ab·o·rig·i·ne n. A member of the indigenous or earliest known population of a region; a native. often Aborigine. A member of any of the indigenous peoples of Australia. See Usage Note at native.
