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.

The UK were the rightful owners of land and they gave it to create a few different countries. People that previously lived on that land (whether it was for a day or a thousand years) had no legitimate claim of ownership.

Merely living on land does not make it yours and the number of years you have lived on it doesn't change this.
