Re: Palestinians
My understanding was that the Jews purchased most of the land that was part of Isreal proper according the the 1940s partition during the Zionist movement in the early 20th century. As such, it was really thier land since they bought it. Most of the land given to Isreal in the partition was basically the shitty desert land no one wanted. Had the Arabs left it at that they may even have been able to confiscate the significant Jewish holdings on thier side of the partition.
The Palestians got kicked out of thier homes as a result of Jews gaining land during Arab invasions.
