I never claimed they did, I only deduced using your logic or illogic

Do you know why the Italians didn't lay claim based on historical conquests? Because it's not a legitimate or legal basis under any existing laws in the 21st Century. That absurdity lies with israel and it's supporters

Absurd elements/supporters like you
Guy, it seems that you think the reason why Israel is fighting Palestinians today is because of biblical history of Gaza and the likes belonging to them. Don't get confused, we all know this is not true. By the partition of 1948, the borders of Israel was demarcated and the only reason why there is no peace in that region is because of the relentless attacks from Arab nations and Palestinians which forces Israel to push them backwards. Israel occupying those Gaza and Golan heights etc is a result of them loosing the war they started and that is nobody's fault.
Even till today, everyone knows that loosing war comes with loosing land especially if you share borders. If I am wrong, why is Egypt not claiming Gaza, what about Lebanon, Jordan, Syria and the likes. Why is it some random people (Palestinians) claiming lands that belongs to other sovereign nations.

You are very funny!!!
By the way, I never said you did.
It is actually absurd for you to state that the reason why Italians never lay claim was because it is not legitimate in the 21st century. How can you use a conquest of over a thousand years ago and use a 21st century legality to justify reasons.
Hasn't that been what you've been arguing all this while? undecided

Why does Israel continuously seize Palestinian land and build settlements? Why does Israel continue to annex Palestinian territory? Are those the result of wars?

You're literally the one who denied Palestinians the land because according to you they had no king and no history on the land. But now you're flipping it on me, claiming I'm denying israel's right to exist

You used israel's purported ancient history to attribute ownership to them, while denying same for Palestinians on account of a purported lack of history

As for me, my arguments have always been grounded in legal facts. You trying to spin things again is just plain old tomfoolery from you

The fact remains take away the biblical and religious elements, most of you can't properly make a case for Israel and even the religious driven arguments require shutting off objective reasoning and self-reflection
Let us give you the benefit of the doubt.
1. Palestine had no history
2. Israel had no claim
3. In 1948, justice was done by demarcating the land between two opposing elements. Rather than abide, Palestine claims they own the land (without proof) and keeps attacking Israel. Israel responds and Palestine is crying. Where does that leaves us?

Or don't tell me your view is that Israel shouldn't exist. If so, can you provide any historical fact or documented evidence that can be used to render the 1948 demarcation as illegal? If you can do this, I swear, I will respect you forever.

⚡Russian missiles flew over Moldova to hit targets in Ukraine.

Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by WritterNg: 3:51pm On Nov 17, 2024
⚡The UK has exhausted its supply of Storm Shadow missiles for Ukraine, according to The Times.

Sources within the British Ministry of Defense suggest that military leadership is unwilling to deplete reserves further, as maintaining a minimum stockpile is necessary for the country’s defense.

“The UK’s stockpile has reached a level below which military leadership is unwilling to go, as a certain amount must be kept in reserve to safeguard Britain’s own interests,” the newspaper reports.

You're going to give who the benefit of doubt? Lol

1. I never said Palestine had no history
2. Israel had a claim, but was it credible? That's the issue in question
3. When the British occupied Palestine, Palestinians were present on the land, how you claimed there's no proof of that is bewildering to say the least
4. How do you define as justice giving 55% of land to 30% of the population at the time? Palestinians made up 70% of the population and were given 45% of a land they were living on for centuries, while the majority was given to foreign immigrants who were 30% of the population
5. Whether israel should exist or not isn't my concern. What's my concern is, is that a Palestinian State should exist based on the Internationally recognized borders of 1967

Don't let's argue further. Can we just agree that Israelites had a longer history on the land more than the Palestinians? 1000 years BC to the 7th century is quite long. Do you agree?

Let me respond to your number 4. Whether you like it or not, as long as there is no verifiable history to support your position, you can never win. Your populatuon doesn't matter. Take for instance, Ilorin Nigeria has an 80% population of Yorubas. Now the question is:
If Nigeria were to break up today, Who owns Ilorin? Yoruba or Fulani? Let me see your view

⚡Ukraine has shut down seven of its nine operating nuclear reactors after a massive overnight attack by Russian missiles and drones, Bloomberg reports, citing the IAEA.

IAEA staff working at plants in Ukraine said that only two of the nine reactors were generating electricity at full capacity on Sunday.

According to a statement from the UN nuclear watchdog, power generation at other units was reduced to 40-90% of capacity, the newspaper writes.

"The country's energy infrastructure is extremely vulnerable, which directly impacts nuclear safety," IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi said.

He added that inspectors are assessing the full extent of the damage.

Because The USA will bomb neighbours who join alliance with enemies doest make it right. It's still wrong.
Then keep it like that. They not gonna change. They have been doing it for decades. Isræl picked the attitude from them. Why is Israel bombing Syria?. It is for the same reason. Why is Israel killing Iranian scientists?. It is for the same reason. So please stop giving Geno-State excuses. Israel wants the whole region because according to them, Bible says the whole region belongs to them. So why is Israel bombing Syria?. Syria didn't attack it so if you don't want to talk about this then don't talk about Russia.

Israel believes that in order to secure it's future, its neighbors must not have weapons or pose a threat to it or ally with one another or Israel's enemies for it's own security. Isn't that selfish?.

Stop supporting genocide in Gaza
Stop supporting killing babies
Stop supporting destruction of civilian infrastructure
Stop supporting killing journalists
Stop supporting Jewish supremacy

Support equal right across the board.
