We felt bad, felt they needed a place to settle, shoved our oar in where it didn't belong, and gave them Israel.
This is where we came in. And by the way, if somebody had given it to them officially partitioned the land (FTFY) in 1937, as was considered --

ah, but I'm not allowed to use that argument, because it will make you feel guilty.

At least if they admitted to their hidden agenda (the constant growth of the Israeli home state,)
You didn't notice that, typically on promise of peace, IL has given back conquered territory larger in size than its current territory.

They gave back the entire Sinai peninsula. (Twice!) They gave back the Golan Heights. They left Lebanon. Now they've left Gaza.

They took those lands after being attacked from those lands. They gave it back -- often on the basis of world opinion.

That really fucks your narrative in multiple ways. Can you explain, or does your organization just need to print fresh pamphlets?
