    I don’t remember all the details but after, I think ww2, a bunch of land was promised to Israel but that same land was also promised to Palestine. Do these two groups had a claim to the same land to call their country.

    It couldn’t just be divided in half as they both claimed some areas as their religious sites and didn’t want to give that up.

    Eventually it was settled and the land was divided between the two countries. But through legal loopholes and stuff Israel was able to claim some additional land.

    But the end result is that there are two groups who have been at each others throats forever.

    I’m not from this region or have a say in it. The facts I stated are not entirely accurate, it’s just what I could remember at the moment from some video I watched at some point.

    So, if you read or hear conflicting information just go with what the other person said.

    If I got something wrong please post the correction.

    If you are going to tell me that something is wrong and I shouldn’t post it because it’s misinformation, then fuck off. No one else has posted anything and I’m just trying to help out based on memory. If you can do a better job explaining it do it and I’ll delete my comment.
