38.  I have my own theory...
I think that when we stop believing everything some retard on the internet tells us and start learning about this history from decent sources, THEN we'll have a shot at talking about this reasonably. “Simple... the map you have is a fallacy. There will never be real peace in the mideast dude. you're deluding youeself.

so let's look at your embarrassingly shitty maps, k?

---

In the first one it designates all of the land not expressly owned by Jewish people to be Palestinia­n even though almost all of it was government owned. Less than 20% was owned by Arabs in reality. And what about the druze and samaratins and others who've been living there forever? Hm... this map says they're Palistinian. ok... So that map is all lies.

Second map is fine. Yay for you. It may have looked like this forever BTW but Palistinians started a civil war.

In the third map the "Jews" suddenly become "Israelis" to avoid the fact that 20% of Palestinia­ns live there too. Changing the parameters mid-analys­is is evidence of very shady practices. Also, it has all this green space indicating palestinian land left after the war... yeah, there was none. That's all just a lie. Not only did Jordan take over the west bank, they fuvking ANNEXED it! Arafat even signed it over to him, saying it was never part of palestine to begin with. All the refugees got citizenship (excerpt the jews of course.) Now you could say that occupation doesn't mean ownership except...

...the fourth map shows the land Israel occupies as now belonging to Israel! So when Jordan actually annexes the land it's still Palestinia­n but when Israel occupies it's Israeli land? So the author of this map is changing the parameters at will.

The truth is that the green land in the fourth map is the very first land to ever be administer­ed by Palestinia­ns in history. So an accurate series would show the Palestinia­ns having nothing until Israel occupied the OPT.” And it would show the shrinking land that Israel has been giving up in order to do it. (Remember Gaza?) So the settlements are technically becoming less numerous everywhere... while strengthened in a few key places.

So just remember when you see this map: without israel, there would be no palestine today. just a weird shaped jordan, and an egypt with more terrorism.

But also remember... that map is junk. Easily debunked junk.
