Well, if the so called 'Palestinians' hadn't been on Israeli land, there wouldn't have been a problem, would there, shootinstudent?
Don't you get it? There are no 'Palestinians'. Never were. They are a fictitious people invented first by the Romans and two millenium later promulgated by the Jew hating Arabs.
Jews are legally and morally entitled to their own state. And the historical boundaries of that state far exceed those currently known as Israel. Their forbearance can only be described as Divine.
And I'll tell you what else. The Moslem Arab world better get a clue and real quick. The only thing it's got going for it is the money the West has graciously donated to them in exchange for some oil. When they encroach on our land, attack and kill our people, they are setting themselves up for a hell not contemplated by that pervert, Mohamed.
Who knows when the patience of the Jews will be consumed? Don't count on the West to constrain them, especially the United States. We're not as gullible and weak as you think.
The proposition that there are no Palestinians is absurd beyond belief. It deserves no response, considering that you can easily see that there are Palestinians if you open any paper at all and read the headlines from today.
The Jerusalem Post was called "The Palestine Post" before independence. The International mandate was called "Palestine." The people have called themselves Palestinian for at least 500 years before today. And a good chunk of those people aren't Muslims-the late George Habash and Edward Said being classic examples.
Maybe you believe that being of a particular race-religion entitles one to rights and land over others; I don't. A Jew born in Germany is entitled to every right that anyone else born in Germany has, and a Palestinian born in Palestine is entitled to every right that any other person born in historical Palestine has (you know, the land as it was called by everyone, including the founders of the Jerusalem Post, before 1948). I completely reject your implied assumption that somehow being born of a certain race grants specific land and personal rights solely on account of that race.
But regardless of our difference on that point, the claim that there are no Palestinians is not supported by even a shred of fact or reason.

Some reading for you:

5. As regards the houses which continually undergo the Israeli bombardments, we say to the Israelis: Destroy our churches but spare the homes of our faithful. If you must impose, at any price, collective punishment and if there needs be a ransom in order to procure the tranquillity of innocent children and families, we offer our churches: Destroy them; we will find other places in which to pray and we will continue to pray for ourselves and for you. And to the Palestinian militants who think that it is necessary to direct their fire against the Israelis from populated houses, even when the orders are clear: Do not transform peaceful homes into a line of fire to them too we say: Obey the orders, preserve the cohesion of Palestinian society, and spare the homes of the innocent. We agree to offer our churches as ransom for any house that they want to demolish. However, we cannot agree to the demolition of the homes of our children so that they be forced to abandon their land.
