Conquest

Belgium has been conquered (or at least the location before it was belgium) many times in the past.

I hope to know what we would do.

Difference is that Palestinias are claiming land their own rulers sold to the united nations, who gave it then to the Jews out of guilt because of the crimes the Nazis did to the Jews.

They weren't conquered in the first place.

That afterwards some palestinian ruler thought he could wash away past deals and conquer the land that was given to the jews Is a stupid mistake. Because the result was Loss of palestinian land to the jews. but who started that war?

But, I do understand that the previous palestinians can't be blamed for their lack of knowledge on that subject... What time did they put after all in giving History lessons? I do not know. But it is clear that now many palestinians are led to belief there was land stolen from them and they should be getting it back.

Still what ever is happening to them isn't an excuse for the whole of Islam followers to misbehave like such. It shoudn't be an excuse.
