I agreed with the fact that England were fools. However thew jews weren't in the right to just move in and demand that land back, and England should never have decided to appease them. They lost that land a long time ago, from people who didn't use extrenal help with anything (like the Assyrians and then ROmans, etc.). The Palestinian population however had been there for jsut as long, in fact they were the very same jews who just happened to stay and assimilate.

It would be like native americans going up to DC or New York then demanding they have their land back, then have all of the EU give it to them and supply them with armaments to somehow smash the US army. It's jsut dumb, they lost their land and that's that, there is no good claim to it whatsoever.

The jews should never have gone back to the middle east since they had no claim to the land whatsoever.

You seem to have an rather peculiar understanding of what happened. It's not as if the Jews ever vanished entirely, every time they were deported they eventually trickled back in, and they were already the majority within Jerusalem before the Zionism-inspired waves of immigration even began in the 1880s.

Just because they trickled back in does not mean they can claim the land as theirs. Can the Mexican immigrants claim any part of the US as theirs? They have certainly been trickling in as of late. Hell, some of them can even make the claim of ancient home, especially with Texas and other south western territories.
