Sudhir Bisht, Good article, but too bad it didnt completely reflect the truth regarding the Palestine/Israel issue. Opinions may be relative, but truth is one. I find it far more easier to believe what these Israeli Jewish organizations that i give below say than what you perceive (or make yourself perceive?) from your armchair.
Rabbis for Human Rights Ta'ayush Coalition of women for just peace Jews for peace Israeli committee against house demolitions Oasis of peace Refuseniks Women in black
etc etc. They are comprised of Jews born and brought up in Israel far more closer to reality than from your armchair.
And indeed it is a dangerous argument to say that the Palestinians didnt own the land in the first place. India as we know NOW didnt exist when the British took over it. Suppose the British had allowed the Jews to settle here perhaps in Rajasthan or somewhere and they in turn with time had turned against the British, fought with them and claimed the land to be their own, would you still come up with the same argument?
And yes you conveniently forgot or didnt know that Israel is yet to comply a UN resolution passed in 1967 to stop the occupation.
