"When are historical demarcations no longer practical or applicable to a modern problem? " Thats the point Al. But it also works for modern isreal vs the pals. Facts on the ground say there should be two states, so lets have two states. Prereq is neither side should be rocketing the other or denying the other sides right to exist on the land they are now on.

But...someone always owned the land before someone else did. Should we be tossed out of what is today the USA by its ancestral owners, the "indians"? When are historical demarcations no longer practical or applicable to a modern problem? We obviously should not be tossed out. And neither should the Jews. If only the Palestinians would give up committing acts of terror against Israel it really wouldn't be a problem. By supporting the Palestinian cause, the Left is no better than any other terrorists on earth. You are a bunch of Osama bin Ladens. Uncivilized terrorists. Don't do that to yourself. Rational people want to see a peaceful solution to the problem. But you guys just want more terrorism to kill more innocents. Can you not see that this is a vicious cycle of killing? Geez. Don't be a terrorist.

The Jews owned that land centuries before 1897 and had never voluntarily surrendered it to anyone. But...someone always owned the land before someone else did. Should we be tossed out of what is today the USA by its ancestral owners, the "indians"? When are historical demarcations no longer practical or applicable to a modern problem? That's the point.......the Jews had been mostly gone from Palestine for over a thousand years. Suddenly, in a meeting in Europe in 1897, Palestine was to be their home again. No one consulted the current residents. The decision was made unilaterally. I don't know of any people who would happy having a group of people moving in and taking over.
