    so what right had britain to give away someone elses land?

    that's very simple. britain had authority over this land, as a quasi colonial power they were in charge due to the previous authority, ottoman empire, collapsing in WWI. it was britains decision to make, their right, because they were in charge. like it or not, there was nobody else to make a decision. if it was a good decision, or a morally just decision is very much debatable, but effectively irrelevant now. same goes for the UN decision to recognize israel as a state, what you think about that decision today is completely irrelevant.

    these questions are irrelevant today, only academic, because the state of israel is a fact, a reality. the state of israel is a fact since the fifties. there is a nation state now, it won't just disappear because you don't find it fair how it was created. in order to move on, you have to *recognize* that fact.

    george galloways mistake, and the mistake of the arabs, is that they can not wrap their heads around this reality. they do not *recognize* the reality of israel. they are in denial.

    1. Denial and Isolation
    2. Anger
    3. Bargaining
    4. Depression
    5. Acceptance

    after 65 years, still at step 1. maybe a good time to start dealing with it. at least if you prefer not to continue like the last 65 years.
