Oslo expired without final agreement. I means nothing.
Jewish sovereignty over Israel was established by King David 3000 years ago.
Rule of property law: First in time, first in right
I think lands change hands and sometimes things aren't always fair. I agree that the Jewish homeland of ancient Israel was rightfully that of the Jews..that said Muslims and Christians also have claim to the land. I think there is a shared right...the thing is Palestinians do not want to accept that the Jews or Christians have any right to the land..and that is where I step outside from their viewpoints. I just wish that they could all get along for once...It would be nice if they could all live on the same block without having schoolyard fights but that seems impossible so we go the segregation route.
The Palestinians wanted a democratic state where Muslims, Christians, and Jews have equal rights.
Palestine constitution
Article 9
Palestinians shall be equal before the law and the judiciary, without distinction based upon race, sex, color, religion, political views or disability.
Israel wanted an exclusive Jewish state. That is the conflict.
