  The problem with Palestine was that it did not belong to England, or the UN, both of whom had no right to partition anything, let alone Palestine. 
  
  And it sought to "accommodate the right of the Jewish people to self-determination and self-government" at the expense of the people already there--Muslim and Christian Palestinians, who formed the vast majority of the existing population. .

  "Colonialism" is exactly what it is about. As for "Euro centric conceit," that describes the founding of the State of Israel quite aptly. It's ironic you should use it against critics of Israeli.
  
  The two-state solution has failed. Let's see whether Israel-Palestine becomes a democracy for all the inhabitants, or continues on the path of treating the Palestinians as untermensch.
