    There was no existing nation. Pre-47, it was British territory and before that, it was seized from the Ottoman Empire after WW1.

    Simplistic statements about historical claims to territory will never work here. Nor will “keeping score” about whose team is getting revenge for what previous massacre and who’s killed the most children (what a fucking thing to have to spell out. holy shit.).
