        Also it wasn't in the Bible, and apparently that's all that matters these days...?

        The Native Americans have a stronger claim.

        I don’t believe in “biblical rights” and neither does the rest of the world. It’s a problem Israel faces, it’s an excuse for occupation, oppression, and it’s brutal. If the world believed in such rights, Tibet would be free, and First Nations people would have their lands back.

        Actually most of our democracy in the USA is based on biblocal rights. Our government, economy and judicial system.

        You’re off track. @nytimes story is about Israel, not the USA, my post didn’t say the USA, and the USA is not the world (although some folk think it is).

        Ya know what? You’re right. I swear I read that as “we”. My apologies. That was a personal statement & my response was off. I’m sorry.

        TYPO: should read "political financial right".... if Spiritual claims are now legal then Native Americans could reclaim the USA & war nations have to shrink back their borderlines.

        A load of crappie Israel exists because of ww2 after which the Jews were given land taken from Palestine. The time has moved on from biblical times
