We didn't get away with the above BS with the Indians...ultimately.....so why do you think the Israelis should get away with it now?

I see. So your theory, then, is that Israel should take over all the land, kill off about 95% of the Palestinians, disarm the rest znd herd them onto reservations on the least desirable land, and let them have casinos.

I can live with that.

Finally we have agreement. So we can end this fruitless exhange.

From 700 AD to the 20th century, the land was ruled by Muslims

Yes but it was ruled for much of that period by Turks not by Arabs and when it was ruled by Arabs it still wasn't ruled by Palestinians.

We didn't get away with what? We grabbed all the land and the US government controls it all. There are reservations but they are a small fraction of the land and they don't have the rights of a sovereign nation.
