Just like Ireland “belongs” to the Irish people and Africa belongs to the African people, similarly Palestine belongs to the Palestinian people.

When people migrate and settle in other lands for generations that land then eventually becomes their ancestral home. They can then no longer lay claim to the ancient land they originally came from. Science tells us that human beings started life in the Rift Valley in Africa and migrated to and settled in other lands. However, that does mean that those of us who are no longer Africans can lay claim to any part of Africa just because science has established that we all came from there

Sometimes people settle in and colonize other lands. Europeans did migrate to certain parts of Africa, colonized them, built settlements gave the land and its features their own names and claimed the lands as their own. In places like South Africa they used apartheid to enforce their claim and authority over the land above the claim of the Africans who were living there.

Right of “return” is freely granted on religio-ethnic grounds to people (AshkeNazi jews) who have never before lived on the land nor their forefathers! But those (Palestinians) who can show you the exact spot they had to vacate and forced out from, are told the word “return” can never apply to them. And that is simply because they don’t belong to the “right” religio-ethnic group.

If all Palestinians became Buddhist, Palestine will not belong to the Buddhists. It will remain belonging to Palestinians. Their religion plays no part in the issue.

Then Palestine was invaded..

By thugs from Hungary, Romania, Germany, Poland, Russia and other places.

Between 1947 and 1949, at least 750,000 Palestinians from a 1.9 million population were made refugees beyond the borders of the state. Zionist forces had taken more than 78 percent of historic Palestine, ethnically cleansed and destroyed about 530 villages and cities, and killed about 15,000 Palestinians in a series of mass atrocities, including more than 70 massacres.

Israel has been treating the Palestinian residents of the city ( Jerusalem) as unwanted immigrants and has been working systematically to drive them out.

Israel’s regime of occupation is inextricably bound up in human rights violations. B’Tselem strives to end the occupation, as that is the only way forward to a future in which human rights, democracy, liberty and equality are ensured to all people, both Palestinian and Israeli, living between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.
