Arabs get back West Bank land!!!

[Hoffstra]

Jewish settlers were exchange with Arab settlers.

Wow.

Now they'll kill more Jews, to show how thankful they are.

Arabs in the West Bank aren't "settlers".

They are natives.

Unfortunately, your theory that Lebanon belonged to the Lebanese; Syria belonged to the Syrians; and that Palestine belonged to the Palestinians is not correct. Lebanon was partitioned off from Syrian territory. Jordan was partition off from Palestinian territory.

It doesn't matter much how the territory was divided. All of the people remained in their respective territory. Nothing was taken from one to give to another.

The Israelis cannot keep the land. It is sovereign territory of the State of Palestine.

Which exists and doesn't exist alltogether as defined by expedience to palistanians, of course. (And which they don't actually want.) The palistanian quantum mechanics.

people who have lived on a land for more than 100 years, arent settlers.

So... we're to believe that you have decided that 100 years is a benchmark?

By what standards (other than your "... because I say so", claim is the 100 years timeframe a standard at all?

BTW, the land currently being occupied by arab beggars and squatters was historically not arab-exclusive.

docmauser1, et al,

Well, I'm not sure this is all that accurate a model.

The Israelis cannot keep the land. It is sovereign territory of the State of Palestine.

There is more than one political face to the Palestinians. And for the most part, they want more than they are (probably) entitled. From a sovereignty standpoint:

• There are Palestinians that somehow believe that "all the land" that the British earmarked as Palestine (less Jordan), belongs to them.
  
• There are Palestinians that believe all the abandon property and territory in the last century belongs to them.
  
• There are Palestinians that believe believe that given their failures and the turn in events, that only the West Bank and Gaza Strip belong to them.

It will make for interesting peace talks.

There was even a territory called Lebanon; it being the part included in the territory of Syria. And Palestine was an undefined region with no borders.

Irrelevant point. Palestine's international borders were defined by 1922.

So, who was that shakh, emir, pasha, sultan, president, prime-minister of that "palestine" to have "international borders"? That's more than relevant to back the claim up, otherwise the claim's a wishful drivel, of course.

Are you sure you are not talking about the Mandate?

Yes, and you should know that none of those sovereign countries today existed at the time of the Treaty of Sevres.

Irrelevant point.

I'm gonna try again and again til I get my prayers answered: Oh Lord, please hear my prayer and give Tinny some common sense and if possible, throw in a brain. And check Your spam folder for others' prayers.

The mandate did not have any land or borders. It was assigned to Palestine and worked inside Palestine's borders.

The Palestine Mandate had no official borders?

sure it did. they were the internationally recognized borders of Palestine.

Palestine was a Protectorate of Britain, governed by a Mandate issued by the League of Nations.

And Palestine and its international borders were still there after the mandate left.

 

[Hoffstra]

The UN recommended dividing Palestine into a Jewish and an Arab state.

the Jews accepted the offer.

a war ensued.

in 1949 the United Nations accepted that a Jewish state had ben created in Palestine, and gave them international legitimacy.

its southern, western, much of its eastern, and its northern border are now internationally recognized.

And the rub is that the Jewish state is still in Palestine.

Palestine's international borders have never been changed.

Palestine's border with Egypt is now internationally recognized as Israel's border with Egypt.

Palestine's border with Lebanon is now internationally recognized as Israel's border with Lebanon.

Palestine's border with southwestern Jordan is now internationally recognized as Israel's border with southwestern Jordan.

These are facts, whether you accept them or not.

Tinnie, could you please ask that present King of Jordan to give back the land to your fellow Arabs because it seems that the outsiders, the Hashemites, received 78 percent of the Palestine Mandate and you don't think it is fair?

The Hashemite Family Tree goes back to the Murdering Rapist Invader, Mohammed (PBUH), therefore they originated in Arabia and are considered "outsiders" by the original inhabitants. How does that sound?
