If it's "Palestinian land", why was it never Palestinian land when Jordan held it? or any time in the history of the region. The only time it became "Palestinian land" was in the UN partition of 1947 - which all the Arabs utterly rejected. Including the Palestinian Arabs.

No history gives them all the land. No treaty gives them all the land. No promise gives them all the land. Sure, there are Palestinians on the land - but there are Israelis too, and they've been there for just as long or longer.

So perhaps they should negotiate a border, particularly in the light of the war of conquest thing, which you seem to want to encourage to repeat again. Is that your official rule, when it's against Israel, everybody gets a do-over?
