You are neglecting the indisputable fact that it DID belong to them because it was won in battle. The UK owned the land. Before that the Turks owned it, Before that the Roman's owned it, etc.

This is how border disputes and land ownership have always been decided throughout history.
Okay. I'll buy that as a hypothetical. At what point is it no longer acceptable to attempt to win land by battle?
