    You know which country lives on land that was stolen from previous inhabitants? Basically all of them.

        Thus theft of Palestinian land is justified.

        Honestly, the first (and so far only) country that comes to mind which doesn’t fit this bill is Ireland. The would-be thieves tried hard, and the natives adopted a lot of the thieves’ ways (under duress, to be sure), but the original Irish are basically still the original Irish.

        It’s as though it never dawned on some of these people that all of history is contingency, and it’s a miracle any of us even exist. How does a non-megolamaniac wake up one day and feel comfortable making pronouncements about which contries don’t have a right to exist?

        By right of Conquest, all that land belongs to Macedonia anyway thanks to our friend Alexander.

        Well, someone needs to reach out to him, because his tenants are making a mess.

        That’s why I don’t care, but then I know I’ll be forced to care.
