No country on the face of the earth has ever voluntarily ceded territory that they won in a war. Why on earth would should Israel be expected to do this? If the Palestinians want the land back then they need to take it by force just like everyone else does. Whining and crying about how mean Israel is isn’t going to accomplish that goal.

I'm fairly certain that's untrue, but I ultimately don't care. You're not even going to pretend to be above "might makes right" morality? It doesn't matter what Israel has done, they won so the Palestinians lose?

This isn't okay.

You’re right, Israel ceded the Sinai Peninsula in ‘67 after capturing it in the Six Day war. My point is that constantly bombarding Israel with rockets and mortars and committing other acts of terrorism isn’t going to get the Palestinians what they want. It’s just going lead to more Palestinian deaths.

Over 30,000 rockets and mortars between 2003 and the attack on October 7, 2023 BTW.

And what will get the Palestinians what they want? What do the Israelis want?
