Too much death on both sides.

Nobody likes a bully, but this bully seems to get a pass from the teachers, so my advice to the target of the bully, dont throw stones at the bully, avoid the bully. Maybe move schools and get on with your life as nobody seems bothered about stopping the bully.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Whoever occupies land of others, however way he tries to justify this occupation, is the aggressor and the bully.

“ Maybe move schools and get on with your life as nobody seems bothered about stopping the bully.”

Erm nope, this is not a solution to being oppressed by an occupying force.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

What is the solution?

So, to put this simply, if I rocked up at the house I was born in and lived in for 6 months and insisted I reacquire that house through force that would be okay?

I’d let the current occupants have the back bedroom but may change my mind on that in the intervening years, become more aggressive and bring superior weaponry and tech into the mix. Plus use the fact I am backed by a few people across my town, no matter how wrong I am.

I'm not saying its OK.

In your scenario, why did the occupants leave after 6 months?

6 months? I think you’ll find that they were there first for a very, very long time (I know you didn’t mean 6 months literally).

The first appearance of the name "Israel" in the non-Biblical historic record is the Egyptian Merneptah Stele, circa 1200 BCE.

There’s no analogies (I appreciate the attempt) that could work as it’s far too complicated a situation.

Seeing as we here are not going to resolve this issue, I think it’s better to focus on what we all agree on rather bickering about the same old points that have all been made countless times for decades and decades.

This does not mean others do not.

I know it’s a bit clunky and not as nuanced as the real situation but bare in mind who I’m responding to in RDD.

This.

Hamas started firing rockers at Israel and Israel responds, so that must stop to save lives.

Peace talks and two state solution, not death to Arabs or drive Jews into the sea.

“ Hamas started firing rockers at Israel and Israel responds, so that must stop to save lives.”

Again this is incorrect and needs fact checking.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

No the land was originally populated by the Canaanites, who’s dependents can now be found in Lebanon.

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/history/article/canaanite-bible-ancient-dna-lebanon-genetics-archaeology

So if we’re going on who should get the land based on the first set of humans to own it, then it’s them.

Jews emigrated to what is now called Israel.

As for your original question, who owns the land? The people with the original legal deeds who are now in refugee camps.

Isreal the occupier and invader, put in the saddle by the world powers that beat the naziis. Never understand how the world thought that was OK. And they did it on the back of WWII as well. As if that hadnt taught everyone a lesson.

If the conflict is about people being displaced from their home then yes, we should go back to who first occupied the land.

I think the Israelites were more of an outgrowth from the southern canaanites. I think they were overlapping cultures.

Reading over the posts again, this conversation isn't about a solution, its about blame and anger and hatred.

I'm out.
