Flylooper - The reason you can't understand...... I suspect, is because you lack history/context or you intentionally fail to want to understand. Assuming its the former, the reason "defenders of Israel can condone the theft of Palestinian land;..." is because there is no such thing as Palestinian people - more on the land later.  The Palestinian is an invented person, who no history or nationalistic identiy prior to 67, and the land in question has been historically, as in since biblical times, Jewish land. It was recognized under international law when the region called Palestine, ( a Roman created name in an attempt to rename areas including Judea and Samaria, from having any association with the Jewish people, like the Moslems building mosques on top of Solomon's temple and renaming in Al Aqsa and hoping no one would remember it as sign of conquest built on the most revered Jewish Holy site), was divided into a Jewish homeland called Israel, and Arab(call it Palestinian) Jordan.
