You read too much in to it, Moshe

I think you are extrapolating what I said too far, or perhaps I did not successfully communicate that it was tongue-in-cheek. In any event, there is no disagreement between us, Moshe. I know very well the yearning of the Jews to return to their homeland and their clear history in the land. I was mocking the concept by giving it the same logic applied by Pro-Palestinians, that if the Romans threw us out, they should give it back to us, just like they are pressuring us to give back Judea and Samaria and East Jerusalem.
