The story of Israel begins and ends with Israel. It starts with God giving the land to Abraham. Then the Jews losing it in wars and retaking it afterwards. This pattern has gone on for at least 4000 thousand years. The recent retaking of Israel was not a colonial invasion in fact the Jews fought the British and before that the Ottomans for possession of their land. It is a shame people want to re-write history.

Palestinians' "existence" as an ethnicity by definition denies the definition of "indigenous". That argument would suggest that white Americans having lived in America for 700 years are now "indigenous" to America. It does not work that way.
