Winning independence through force of arms does NOT justify the Palestinian terrorist cause. Americans fought for their own independence and didn't have to attack another country to get it. The Palestinians are already independent. They are not under Israeli control. They are free to live on their own land without any oppression or control from Israel. The trouble is they keep going onto someone else's honestly obtained land and attacking them without cause, or justification.

The land was owned by the British Empire. While I'm against all forms of imperialism, the fact is it does exist. Before that it was owned by the Ottoman Empire (Turks). Before that it was owned by the Roman Empire. Before that by the Egyptian Empire. And before that there is no recorded history so for all of the recorded history of mankind, there has never been land in that part of the world owned by the Palestinian People. There IS recorded history on the other hand of the nation of Israel. And while they lost that land and no longer owned it, the legal owner returned that land to them and was even generous enough to give some land to create Jordan and to split what was left with some squatters from surrounding countries calling themsleves Palestinians. But rather than be happy that they finally do own some land and live in peace with thier new neighbors, they launched unprovoked attacks against them.

If I own land that I don't live on and you decide to build a house on it when I'm not looking, it doesn't mean you own it.
