You cannot buy the land if it isn't going to those living there. You cannot buy someone's home while they are still living there. You cannot claim ownership of others simply because your ancestors lived there once and some version of your cousins still live nearby. - ThreadSky

You can claim ownership if you’re buying from a native landlord. That’s literally how it works anywhere. This isn’t unique to Palestine.

Sorry, but I don't take that seriously in any situation. You cannot buy someone else's home out from under them, a million times over, just because the Gov said it's ok because YOU deserve to live there and they and their generational ties to the land and home don't count.

Especially when settlers are intentionally destroying land, homes, and crops in order to access the areas for themselves and drive away any native populatios. Want to take a wild guess as to what that's been historically referred to as?

If you say the Nakba in 1948, then there’s no point talking to you as you leave out very vital context. But the biggest premise of this is:

If you attack, then lose, you will lose land.

And when the international community is screaming "stop killing civilians, this is textbook genocide by your actions" you don't get to claim continuing victimhood because of your traumatic history with an unrelated country

Which is my what we’re doing. The international community should review the Geneva convention, Israel is standing by all articles. UNLIKE HAMAS.

It’s not the GOV, it’s the Arab locals. And it’s it because they DESERVE to live there. They literally BOUGHT the land that was available. There were very few that said the other’s generational ties don’t count until they started attacking.
