[quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous]You can buy it back....Prior to the formation of Israel, the jews purchased much of the land on the costal plain; at the partition, jews were 52% of the population defined as Israel.  They migrated to the land.

Upon Israeli independence, she was attacked on all sides.  Many of the Palestinians fled the land as refugees to wait out the war, until the arab nations destroyed Israel.  In fact, Israel won the war, and concurred territory.  The only land that was "stolen" was that which was vacated at the start of the war.

False. By 1920 Jews owned only [b]2%[/b] of Palestine. By 1948 when Israel declared itself a state, the Jews had increased their land ownership; but IT WAS STILL [b]LESS THAN 6%.[/b]

Robin Miller in "The Expulsion of the Palestinians 1947-1948, says, "Before 1948, Jews owned only 1.5 million of the 26 million dunams of land in Palestine . . . After the eviction of the Palestinians, Israel controlled 20 million dunams, an increase from 6% to 77% of the total. They simply stole an entire country."[/quote][/quote]
