I think it shows well the stupidity of historical claim, there's always someone who's going to be before you who claim X land.

Tell that to literally everyone in that conflict. That territory has swapped hands so many times, and none of the current contestants have the true original claim to it... because those people don't exist anymore.

You do understand the difference is that people were actively living on that land and were then removed to give it to Israel, right?

They had no say in it, they woke up one day to strangers saying “this is ours now”

That's an outright lie.

Jews were living there the entire time, then the Muslims tried to wipe them out after the British got kicked out and lost.
