But the problem is the people who lived there At the end the End of WWII were not the people who threw them out.
They were the people whose ancestors survived these conquests, or moved there later. You say the Palestinians weren't left completely homeless? Then why are they still in Refugee camps? The people who living on the half of the cake that was taken away from the were left homeless. Their land was taken from them. They weren't paid for it. They were forced to leave, how is that not being left homeless? If I come and take your house away from you and give you nothing for it, you are not homeless because you can go somewhere else and find a house. That is not true at all. Where do you put millions of people suddenly transplanted on this land. You can't do it unless others are moved. Do you think the Native Americans weren't left homeless? If I take your home, you are homeless. Sure you can go somewhere else, but what give you the right to take my home?
