the West Bank is not Israel unlike Lebanon which is well Lebanon, the Palestinians in the West Bank are being ruled by foreign invaders, the West Bank is not sovereign Israeli territory or any part of Israel and in fact the West Bank has been recognized as Palestine by the UNGA, the Palestinians in Lebanon are non citizen refugees living in a sovereign country, the Palestinians in the West Bank are refugee or not being ruled over by a foreign military invader, that applies different laws to the Palestinian population than they do their civilian population whom are colonizing the West Bank something that is against international law
