Arabs fought the Jews and lost. It may be a tactical error, it may be
trickery,
it may be lack of firepower, it may be lots of things. But they were

there,
there was a war, they lost, they want it back.

Whether WE see it that way is one thing, but THEY see it that way.
So, how should I decide who's way of seeing it is "correct"?


Yup, they fought over land and lost. Had they won they would have pushed
the Jews off their land. Instead, the Jews won and the Arabs that

remained
on their land in the new state of Israel still have it.


Additionally, it was the Arabs that *started* that war, and did so on one of
the holiest of Jewish days hoping for a tactical advantage.
