oh god, you're breaking my heart. i think i'm gonna cry. i can already tell you there's no point in continuing this, because we will not agree on reality. by your logic then, the indians (natvie americans) are still at war with the US, because we havent' allowed them complete sovereignty over themselves or given them back the land we took in war from them.
i'm sorry, but unless you're anti-UN, and think they should be disbanded and none of their resolutions lived up to, you don't have a leg to stand on. the land (whether right or wrong), was given to them by a UN resolution, basically handed over by that area's former colonial ruler (britain). also, the arabs living there were not forced out, many left at the urging of the attacking arab neighbors and then didn't come back/weren't allowed back (i really don't know which), but many stayed and are full citizens of isreal. so basically, the israeli's were allowed to set up the govt. there, some arabs stayed, some left, but those that left could have stayed and taken part in the new country.
i possibly got of track somewhere, i have a habit of rambling when bored.
