    No, this is "public land"...lol Or, it is "disputed territory," so goes the lying line. Note how they teach them to be thieves young.

    A nation of thieves! Pre 1948 as much as post 1948! The difference is that before, the theft was condoned by the UN while now, the UN is has no opinion anyone would care for...

    Only 7% of Israel "proper" was purchased, the rest was simply stolen...

    TGIA, please let me disagree with you on that. Large parts of Palestine (in the West Bank and Israel proper) were purchased by Palestinians of the Jewish faith. This does not mean that large tracks of Palestinian land were not confiscated at below market prices (or no price at all) inside Israel proper and the West Bank.

    There needs to be more analysis about property rights in Palestine.

    TGIA, there is nothing wrong with Palestinians (or Chinese) owning large parts of Israel proper. Nor is there anything wrong with Israelis (and Japanese or Indians for example) owning large parts of Palestine. The question of private property rights is very different from the question of where the international boundaries should be, or what civil rights should by applied.

    For example, large parts of Hollywood are owned by foreigners, yet Americans do not have a problem with that. {Columbia studios is owned by Sony. Many historic buildings in Southern California are also owned by foreingers.} Why should Palestine and Israel be any different?

    "The question of private property rights is very different from the question of where the international boundaries should be, or what civil rights should by applied."

    Listen you little fucker, you cannot address civil rights without addressing property rights - get your head out of your ass.  Second, you cannot dismiss the overarching issue in the region by bypassing it and going to specifics, as if nothing else is going on - you are probably the most stupid turd on th face of the earth.
