@Bond369 - first, nice to see you again. Second, okay, so Palestinians aren't allowed to return to live on the contested land?

Then who should we give your land back to?

Your idea that the strongest can just take whatever he can "win" sounds a bit weird.

Is it my idea? Do you disagree that this is how things are?

If that was true, then couldn't I just go and e.g. take a man's car if he can't resist. The car would be the "spoils of war" and my property.

Sure, you can do this. Will there be consequences? Probably. Unless you live somewhere there are no authorities.
We're getting way off topic here.

The fact that something is the way it is doesn't make it right, and also doesn't make it less important to debate the issue. It's a lousy excuse for anything that "that's just the way things are".

I wasn't debating whether it was right or wrong from a moral perspective. It is how it is.

According to your logic war seems to be an ok thing.

Again, I never said that. If you are going to argue that since Israel never was given the land they currently occupy, that they obtained this land through an illegal war, then you have to agree that ALL land must be given back to its rightful owners. I'm challenging you to both admit that and to find the "rightful" owners of all land.

Isn't the Palestinians then only trying to be the group of barbarians to kick Israel out?

Yes.
