its not a question of true or not, its simple logic...which by it, everyone should be where they came from the first place.
No...this isn't logical at all.
Nobody can know where they came from in the first place. But let's say we can google "where did I originally come from" and magically it tells us the exact coordinates within 0.025 seconds.
Exactly what would one expect to find?
The googled query is itself a fallacy. The real question is "where's home?"
Nobody can argue with where ones' home is, and the answer is usually of certainty. Let's stick with that, because your "logic" is infact pointless, who is to say how far back we should go and whether we should stop?
It's convenient for you to stop at 1500 BC? Why? Because going further back means you need to consider returning to Iraq, or wherever your own personal narrative describes as the place you wandered into Canaan from.
But why just stop there? Let's all go back to East Africa where the original homosapiens are thought to have originated from?
Better yet why not go into space, if we're star dust, then our home truly lies in the final frontier. In fact we should all just explode with a big bang if we're really accurate. Maybe the closest thing to home for all of us is the Large Hadron Collider. Hmmm...tempting...need to buy some curtains and a flat screen.
So by your logic, its perfectly fine to steal lands and slaughter on people from 3rd world countries?
How this is a logical conclusion of anything I've said is beyond me.
just a little quiz for you guys here, anyone knows what is the origins and meaning of the word "Palastine" ? and does it a word in Arabic?
Is that you're secret weapon? Etymology?
Palestine is of Roman origin. England is of German. Iran is of Sanskrit.
Israelite, Philistine, Phoenician, Ammonite, Moabite, Edomite, Canaanite are just some of the people who have inhabited this part of the world.
I don't see any Phoenecian nationalists or Ammonite nationalists laying claim to the land.
The reality is, the Palestinian population are an amalgamation of all the above, plus the Arabs and Turkss. They also undeniably have Jewish ancestry too. Think about it. The Palestinian Christians who number several million - did they come from Arabia? No. Many are descendents of the Jewish people who converted to Christianity. The Muslim population are virtually the same as the Christian, with a slight favouring of southern Arabs. It would not shock me in the least if half the Palestinians were in fact descended from Jewish people. In fact, they can be the only population that has the right to claim ancient ancestry, not that it really is important to me.
The confusion lies in the term "Arab". Which in the Arab world does not mean "from Arabia", but a speaker of Arabic, for a few generations so as to render them culturally Arab.
It links them to Arabia as much as it links Barack Obama (speaks english) to England.
Additionally, the 'Arabs' have inhabited this land far far longer than all Israelite kingdoms put together.
Am I saying there should be no Jewish people? Definitly not. They form an integral PART of the regions history, and would simply be unnatural for there not be a significant Jewish presence in the region.
Nobody has a problem with Jews being self-determined.
We have a problem with it coming at the expense of an entire people.
