Mike, where did the Mayflower come from? I realize Columbus was an Italian from Spain but he discovered Dominican Republic not America. Most of the US is wasp. Similarly northern Egypt is largely Arab decent or mix, even from the time of Cleopatra.
The UN didn`t establish Israel, Jews did, with recognition from the US and Canada and UK. And why do you say that losers of wars do not justly forfeit their land? The US goverment, using the idea of Manifest Destiny, took ownership of America from the vanquished natives? Canada did it without any "indian wars." They haven`t been compensated. Besides the Pals gambled on getting the Jewish lands once their cousins drove Israel into the sea...and lost.
No Glosnost for the Pals from those cousins since Egypt knows that anyone who would hold their hatred and pride for 60 years rather than negotiate compensation is beyond help. They let them get their weapons and locked them back up.
