Oh? Thomas Jefferson just went up to King George III and gave him a big wet kiss, and tah dah! Independence was granted to the American colonies! How could I have missed out on that fact? I guess I was asleep that day in civics class.

You obviously didn't read my post or understand it. Independence can be won by force of arms and in my opinion it's often the only way to do so. The Palestinian people are already independent. So any attacks on Israel are merely aggression for the sake of terrorism, not for winning independence. That is why their actions are not justified.

Great Britain signed the ‘Sykes-Picot Agreement’ promising Palestine to the Arabs in return for a revolutionary Arab liberation war against the Ottoman Empire (Turkey).

Great Britan offered to give a significant part of the land to them (not ALL of it) and followed through on it. Britan gave them the land that created the countries of Jordan, Yemen, and one more I can't remember off the top of my head. Try again.

BINGO! In your own words, big guy!

Yep. And since the Arab Palestinian people were camping out on someone else's land while they were away, they were not the rightful owners at any point. Game, Set, and Match. Thanks for playing.
Yelof should just throw on an orange vest and move to Belfast with the rest of his kind. If you're going to make a comparison between the Israeli/Palestinian and that of the Irish/Ulster conflict, Israel is represented by the Republic of Ireland, not by Northern Ireland.
