Mike & Nadine: I grant you Poland. Unfortunately, european borders have been argued about for a long time as well, and shifted quite a bit in the last few hundred years. Still, even in Poland, it was not a matter of moving in a new population and deporting an old one. One might also look at Austria & Hungary to consider how european borders change. Was their "empire" a different group of people? I still maintain that there is no modern equivalent of the creation of the state of Israel, and I really do think most of the problems there stem from this act not being carried out carefully enough. I do think the idea was OK, but execution of it resulted in many problems which plague the region today.
