Israel is in an impossible situation. They are pushed up against the sea and have such a small nation as to have no more room to give. They treat the Palestinians very well.
It has to be evil that continually presses them to give more.
It was their land to begin with and all Bible readers know it. They gave land concessions to Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Syria, Arabs, etc. It has been hell every since there was a state given to Israel. We know they had a right to land given to Abraham. they were carried off to Roman against their will.
Evil has been at work relentlessly.
Agreed. And for folks that don't believe in the Bible I remind them that the international community agreed for opening up Israel for the Jews, and I believe the Palestinians weren't so much forced out, but sold their plots of barren land to the Jews. Of course now that the Jews have irrigated it and invested in it to turn it once again into the “land of milk and honey”....
And the Jews, after defending themselves in two(?) wars gained land - just like most other nations have conquered land (or became nations). But like you said, gave much of it back.
