The Jewish people have Judah heritage (“Jew”=citizen of “Judah” - Judaism is both an ethnicity as well as a religion).
The Jewish people are native to their ancestral-homeland of Israel, with unbroken presence there from Biblical times:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographi...e_(region)
 
By comparison, the “Palestinian” Arabs arrived in the land historically-speaking in recent times, as shown below.
 
The name “Palestine” was used by the Romans to attempt to negate Israel / Judah as names for the land. Today the “Palestinian” Arabs and their primarily antisemitic supporters, use the name “Palestine” for the same purpose.
 
 
Who were the Arabs living in British “Palestine” Mandate administered Israel?
 
There has never been an indigenous “Palestine” / Arab sovereign state in the land of Israel upon which the “Palestinian” Arabs could base any claim to any part of Israel.
Following the Ottoman Turkish defeat in the First World War, the League of Nations in 1922 resurrecting the name “Palestine” from Roman occupation, authorized a British Mandate; an administrative region ruled by a foreign imperial power, it was an area that later would be today’s: Jordan, Israel, and the Palestinian Territories - Please compare the second and third maps down, at:
http://www.shamrak.com/Masada2000-Histor...estine.htm
 
JEWISH citizens of the British Mandate were Palestinian: Irrespective of race or religion citizens of the British Mandate were “Palestinian”:

Extracts from five British “Government of Palestine” passports,
from which it can be seen that JEWISH citizens of the Mandate were “Palestinian”:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/p6hjhurn7...s.pdf/file
The Media of the time referred to the British Mandate inhabitants, as:
“Palestinian Arabs”, / “Palestinian Jews”, or as: “Arabs” / “Jews”.
 
The “Palestinian Arabs” dropped the name “Arab” because they do not want you to understand they mostly originate from Foreign-Arab-Migrant-Workers who came to the land of Israel just prior to, and during the British Mandate, to take advantage of higher wages through Jewish returnee-exiles: 

Quote:“[...] most Arabs in British Mandate Palestine were migrant workers and descendants of the 1832-1947 wave of Arab/Muslim immigration from Egypt, the Sudan, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Yemen, Libya, North Africa, Bosnia, India, Afghanistan, etc. While the British Mandate encouraged Arab immigration, it blocked Jewish immigration.”

Extract source:
http://theettingerreport.com/arab-migrat...n-society/

Quote:“[...] the Zionist project was very attractive to Arabs who were drawn to Palestine by the good wages, healthcare and sanitation offered by the Jews. [...] the Arab population of Palestine increased the most in cities where there were large numbers of Jews [...]
[British] restrictions were placed on Jewish immigration in order to appease Arab troublemakers. However, the situation regarding Arab settlement was much more lax. [...]
 
the Arab population of Palestine had been in a state of flux for centuries and that the overwhelming majority were migrants from the rest of the Arab world and/or the Ottoman empire. This is important because it tells us that the postmodern notion of a deep-rooted Palestinian Arab history/culture is bogus. [...]
 
This explains why, historically, Arabs never talked about Palestinian identity - because there wasn’t one. They were Egyptian, Syrian, Moroccan, Iraqi and Ottoman Arabs, and many of them expressed allegiance to the concept of a Greater Syria.”

Quote:“Not until the Zionists had arrived in numbers did the Arab population begin to augment itself. The introduction of European standards of wage and life acted like a magnet on the entire Near East. Abruptly, Palestine became an Arab center of attraction. By 1922, after a quarter century of Jewish colonization [Jewish returnee-exiles], their [Arab] numbers mushroomed to 488,000.”

Quote:“Which towns, villages, and cities [of the British Mandate] offered the higher economic opportunity? Analyzing the 1922 and 1931 demographic data by sub-district and separating those sub-districts of Palestine that eventually became 1948 Israel—that is, sub-districts that had relatively large Jewish populations (with accompanying Jewish capital and modern technology)—from those that were not designated as part of 1948 Israel, identified not only the direction of Arab Palestinian migration within Palestine but its magnitude as well. [32]
 
[...] That over 10 percent of the 1931 Arab Palestinian population in those sub-districts that eventually became Israel had immigrated to those sub-districts within the 1922-31 years is a datum of considerable significance. It is consistent with the fragmentary evidence of illegal migration to and within Palestine; it supports the idea of linkage between economic disparities and migratory impulses—a linkage universally accepted; it undercuts the thesis of “spatial stickiness” attributed by some scholars to the Arab Palestinian population of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries; and it provides strong circumstantial evidence that the illegal Arab immigration into Palestine, like that within Palestine, was of consequence as well.”

The reader may consider how there could be propaganda that the “Palestinian” Arabs have allegedly any sincere emotional-attachment to the Jewish ancestral-homeland of Israel, when:
 
The “Palestinian” Arabs attempted to take over Jordan by force in 1970 to 1971:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_September_in_Jordan
 
And:
 
The “Palestinian” Arabs attempted to take over Lebanon by force
and were likely the cause of its civil war, in 1975:  

Quote:“On April 13, 1975, the leader of the Kata’ib party, Pierre Gemayel, was attending church in Ain Rummaneh, a Christian suburb of Beirut. It was at this time that Palestinian guerillas approached the church in two cars, opening fire and killing four Christians, among them, a prominent member of the Kata’ib party (Vocke 39). A few hours later, in retaliation for the attack, Christian militias stopped a bus in Ain Rummaneh carrying twenty-two armed Palestinians, shooting and killing all twenty-two of them (Vocke 39). These events, considered the first confrontations of the Lebanese Civil War, sparked clashes across the city of Beirut. The conflict soon developed into a religious one, with Palestinians, backed by Shiite, Sunni and Druze left wing militia fighters, attacking Maronite and other Christian sections of East Beirut, and the right wing Kata’ib and Maronite militias attacking targets in Palestinian and Muslimdominated West Beirut (Vocke 41). The war had officially begun.”

As the reader will be aware, the “Palestinian” Arabs persistently and falsely-play the “victim-card” as part of their propaganda campaign. “Palestinian” Arab propaganda is highly successful, comparable to that of Nazi Germany, asserting the Jews are the fake-cause of all Palestinian perceived issues.

In reality:
 > The “Palestinian” Arabs are no “victims”.
 > Rather, the “Palestinian” Arabs are victim-makers.

Alleged “Palestinian Plight” is “Palestinian” Arab propaganda - Were there any such “Plight”, it would be due-entirely to the nature of Palestinian self-government: Hate-based, conflict-policies, war-based economy, misusing your Aid-money (corruption, rockets, attack tunnels), ignoring the welfare of their own people. 

The “Palestinian” Arabs are also often falsely-referred to as the “hapless Palestinians”, whereas in reality they are bankrolled by the “European Union”:
The E.U. paid the “Palestinian” Arabs as quote: “humanitarian funding”: 
€22.5 million in 2019,
€23.7 million in 2020,
and €26.5 million in 2022,
- being figures updated yearly on the following webpage: 
Under the heading “How are we helping?”: 
https://civil-protection-humanitarian-ai...lestine_en

The “European Union” and the United States bankroll the “Palestinian” Arabs, while fully aware that the “Palestinian Authority Martyrs Fund” rewards murder of Israeli Jewish children, e.g. Hallel Yaffa Ariel, aged 13.

What do the allegedly “hapless Palestinians” do with all their U.S. and E.U. taxpayers’ money?
It is used for, or frees-up funding for, paying their reward-“pension” for the murder of Israeli Jews; typically civilians including children: 

Quote:‘The Palestinian Authority Martyrs Fund are two funds operated by the Palestinian Authority (PA). The Foundation for the Care of the Families of Martyrs pays monthly cash stipends to the families of Palestinians killed, injured, or imprisoned while carrying out violence against Israel.[1] The Prisoners Fund makes disbursements to Palestinians imprisoned in Israeli jails. In 2016, the PA paid out about NIS 1.1 billion (US$303 million) in stipends and other benefits.[2]

Critics often call the fund "pay for slay" and blame the payments for encouraging terrorism. [...]’

Contributors often claim they are only “criticizing”, Israel, but what they really mean is to:
“make unsubstantiated-accusations against”,
which they choose to do against Israel, and not other countries !
 
When are falsehoods against Israel typically due to anti-Semitism, and how can you recognise “Palestinian” Arab Falsehood-Propaganda?
UNSUBSTANTIATED-allegations against Israel that insult the reader’s intelligence by being typically-provided with:
No detail, no objective-sources; zero evidence.
When comments have such characteristics we can conclude that the antisemitic psychological-desire for the genocide of the Jewish people now presents as the desire to destroy Israel (see example questions below).
 
Supporting the “Palestinian” Arab war of ethnic-hatred against Israeli Jews is anti-Semitism: 

 > The “Palestinian” Arabs want ALL the land of Israel (to which they have zero-verifiable claims), to expel or murder the Jews, as is shown by what is taught by the Palestinian education system and from the “Palestinian National Charter”.
 
 > The primary support for the “Palestinian” Arabs is from anti-semites:
 
Example questions (collected from the now closed Yahoo Answers) characterized by anti-Jewish hatred posing as anti-Israel / anti-Zionist:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/c3yzp99kw...c.pdf/file
 
Supporting anti-Semitism, is anti-Semitism; pretending otherwise constitutes a form of appeasement of the anti-Jewish policies of the Palestinians; appeasement is a failed policy.
 
The “Palestinian” Arabs typically find their propaganda is “pushing at an open door”, many being Willing to believe them while Unwilling to verify if it is factual, due to anti-Semitism (about which many are in denial).
Nor therefore do such people require any moral standard from the “Palestinian” Arabs.
 
Supporting Palestinian nationalism would cease to be antisemitism, only once it ceases its policy to destroy Israel and expel or murder its Jews.
 
Supporting anti-Semitism is anti-Semitism:
The Palestinian Education Authority teaches Holocaust-Denial and admiration of the Nazis:

Image: “Palestinian protesters carry a transparent kite defaced with a swastika ... [Gaza border] - [AFP/Getty Images].”:

Supporting anti-Semitism is anti-Semitism:
No evidence Israel targets civilians, but the “Palestinian” Arabs target Israeli Jews as policy including children (see below) - No wonder anti-Semites display such emotional-support for the “Palestinian” Arabs !
The Palestinians cynically whitewash their anti-Jewish hate-war as:
“uprising”, “defence”, “desperation”, “struggle”, “resistance”.
 
The “Palestinian” Arabs are paid a reward-“pension” to murder Jewish Israelis including children (while being funded by the “European Union”):

“Palestinian” Arab “Psychological Projection” propaganda attempts to justify Arab invasion, theft, and illegal-occupation, of the ancestral-homeland of the Jewish people - Israel, by alleging the Jews / Israel invaded the land and stole it from the “Palestinian” Arabs. They do this both by:
Falsely-denying the roots of the Jewish people in the Jews ancestral-homeland of Israel,
and by failing to mention that the “Palestinian” Arabs mostly originate from Foreign-Arab-Migrant-Workers who came to the land of Israel just prior to, and during the British Mandate (see below), and who sought to take all the land from its indigenous Jews and seek to murder or expel them. 
 
There has never been an indigenous “Palestine” / Arab sovereign state in the land of Israel upon which the “Palestinian” Arabs could base any claim to any part of Israel. The name “Palestine” is the Roman-imposed rename of Israel / Judah, a name later resurrected for the British Mandate. Both Roman and British powers were foreign imperial rule. The name “Palestine” was used by the Romans to attempt to negate Israel / Judah as names for the land. Today the “Palestinian” Arabs and their primarily antisemitic supporters, use the name “Palestine” for the same purpose.
 
The Arabs willingly accepted “Palestine” as the Roman-imposed rename of Israel / Judah. Why? Because their propaganda would not be as effective if they accused the Jews of stealing “Judah”.
 
The “Palestinian” Arabs falsely-allege Israeli Jews all came from Europe. Some Jews are returnee-exiles, since the Jewish people have Judah heritage (“Jew”=citizen of “Judah” - Judaism is both an ethnicity as well as a religion). The Jewish people are indigenous to their ancestral-homeland of Israel, with unbroken presence there from Biblical times:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographi...e_(region)
 
Israel is Re-established within the Jewish ancestral-homeland. Internationally-recognised history shows that the last indigenous sovereign state in the land of Israel (Roman-imposed name “Palestine”), prior to the RE-establishment of Israel in 1948, was the post-Biblical Jewish Hasmonean Kingdom. It included what is now referred to as the “West Bank”, Gaza, and Golan Heights. Capital (what is now East) Jerusalem / “Old City”; between 110 BCE / 754 BH and 63 BCE / 706 BH - Map:
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c...ingdom.jpg

Map Jewish Kingdom of Judah, incl. part of the “West Bank” (rest held by Israel-Samaria), capital of (what is now EAST) Jerusalem / “Old City”; between 930 BCE / 1599 BH and 586 BCE / 1244 BH.

Therefore just as Israel / the Jewish people logically cannot:
“invade”,
or “illegally-settle”,
or “be a colony on”,
its OWN ancestral-homeland,
it also cannot logically “steal” nor “illegally-occupy”, its OWN ancestral-homeland.

Why are Israeli homes in Judah and Samaria (“West Bank”) falsely-alleged to be “illegal”?:

The following is how the U.N. Lawfare against Israel works:
 > Falsely regarding Israel/the Jewish people as illegally-occupying "Judah and Samaria" ("West Bank, the");
 > Then, based on that consequently, Israeli homes and villages (referred to in the Media (and strangely also in Israel) erroneously as "settlements"), within "Judah and Samaria" ("West Bank") become: "illegal in International law";
 > Then, consequential U.N. Court decisions based in those biased U.N. policies.

How does the U.N. bias against Israel work?:

The “Palestinian” Arabs start-off in U.N. votes by enjoying a block-vote in their favor of up to 56 Arab and additional Islamic-aligned countries (e.g. U.N. member states that are also members of the “Organization of Islamic Cooperation” and follow its policies when voting in the U.N.), and influence of Arab oil money with consequential trading power; compared to Israel’s one vote.
Security Council resolutions passed against Israel are typically during the tenure of U.S. Democratic Party Presidents who decide not to use their veto to protect Israel from unjust resolutions.

Such U.N. policies are illegal, being in conflict with the international treaty signed by the Israelis and “Palestinian” Arabs - the Oslo Accords which also constitute international law.


Since the “Palestinian” Arabs arrived in the land well after the Jews, this makes the Arabs the “occupier/colonist/settlers”; not the Jews. (See use of terms below.) The whole rationale of alleged “illegality” in relation to Israeli home-building / “settlements” is illogical and should not be accepted on its face value.


The Oslo Accords (agreed to by the “Palestinian” Arabs) separate Judah and Samaria (“West Bank”)  into Areas A, B, and C; underwhich Israel is permitted to build homes (aka “settlements”) in Area C.

People often wonder why the Israeli homes (settlements) are Jewish: The reason is that the “Palestinian” Arabs do not permit Jews in the “Palestinian” Arab-controlled Areas, killing any Jew they find near them - Example: 
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/j...-west-bank

How did the “Palestinian” Arabs breach the terms of the Accords?

By failing to: Quote: “[...] prevent acts of terrorism crime and hostilities [...]” (Article XV).
This is quite clear because:

The Palestinian Authority aka Fatah lost control of Gaza to Hamas, which fires numerous barrages of rockets at Israeli cities (and committed the barbaric attack and massacre of October 7th, 2023): 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestinia..._on_Israel

The “Palestinian Authority” aka Fatah (funded by the “European Union”) and the “Palestinian Liberation Organization” by Palestinian Law, pay a reward-“pension” (the “Palestinian Authority Martyrs Fund”) for the murder of Israeli Jewish civilians including children:

Here is an example from the “Palestinian” Arab on-going anti-Jewish hate-war, where their propaganda typically refers to any consequential security measures as “Israeli-oppression”:
Israeli girl, Hallel Yaffa Ariel, aged 13, fatally stabbed in her bedroom in West Bank by a Palestinian terrorist, June 30, 2016, The Guardian: 
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/j...iryat-arba


That part of “Judah and Samaria” now wrongly referred to as the “West Bank”, first became known as the “West Bank” when the Jordanians illegally-occupied it in 1948 - See under heading: “Etymology” - West Bank: 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Bank

Jordanian illegal-occupation of Judah and Samaria (“West Bank”) 1948 to 1967: 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordanian_..._West_Bank


Why do the Jewish people refer to the “West Bank” as: “Judea (aka Judah) and Samaria”?:

What is now known as the “West Bank” (of the Jordan river) was within two prior contemporaneous Jewish indigenous sovereign states. These were: Israel-Samaria (northern Kingdom), and Judah (aka Judea) (southern Kingdom).
Part of it (what is now referred to as the “West Bank”) was within the one kingdom, while the rest of it was within the other kingdom.
(Both of those kingdoms covered an region greater than just what is now referred to as the “West Bank”.)

Map:
i) Jewish Kingdom of Israel-Samaria, including part of the “West Bank”, and Golan Heights, (its final) capital Samaria; between 930 BCE / 1599 BH and 720 BCE / 1383 BH - see map link below.
ii) Jewish Kingdom of Judah, including the rest of the “West Bank”, capital of (what is now East) Jerusalem / “Old City”; between 930 BCE / 1599 BH and 586 BCE / 1244 BH (same map for both kingdoms): 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Kingd...ap_830.svg

There has never been any indigenous “Palestine” / Arab sovereign state in the land of Israel on which the “Palestinian” Arabs could base any claim on any part of the land of Israel.

Therefore just as Israel / the Jewish people logically cannot:
“Invade”,
or “steal”,
or “illegally-occupy”,
or “be a colony on”,
its OWN ancestral-homeland,
it also cannot logically “illegally-settle” its OWN ancestral-homeland.

The matter becomes clear when accurate-terms are applied:

 > “Israelis” / "Israeli villagers" (NOT Israeli “settlers”) (being either: Jews whose ancestors have unbroken-presence in their ancestral-homeland of Israel, or Jewish returnee-exiles).
 > “Israeli-homes” / "Israeli village” (NOT Israeli “settlement(s)”). (When referring to more than one abode.)

Jews “Re-settling” their ancestral-homeland are therefore “Returnees”.
Israeli “settlers” are either:
 > Jews whose ancestors have unbroken-presence in their ancestral-homeland of Israel.
 > Jewish-exiles returned to their ancestral-homeland of Israel, who have Judah heritage.
(The clue is in the name: “Jew”=citizen of Judah - Judaism is both an ethnicity as well as a religion.)

The Jews have unbroken presence in their ancestral-homeland of Israel since Biblical times, while the Arabs arrived much later (see below).
 > “Palestinian-Arab settlers” (NOT “Palestinian villagers”).
 > “Palestinian-Arab settlement” (NOT “Palestinian village”) (when referring to more than one abode.)


Who were the Arabs living in British “Palestine” Mandate administered Israel?

“Palestinian” Arab propaganda alleges the Jews / Israel invaded the land, stole it from the “Palestinian” Arabs. They do this both by falsely-denying the roots of the Jewish people in the Jews ancestral-homeland of Israel, and by failing to mention that the “Palestinian” Arabs mostly originate from Foreign-Arab-Migrant-Workers who came to the land of Israel just prior to, and during the British Mandate: 
https://richardmatherblog.wordpress.com/2015/05/

The “Palestinian” Arabs were opposed to being called a “People” until the 1960’s, when they decided it fitted with their intention to steal the land of Israel from its indigenous Jews:
http://www.targetofopportunity.com/pales..._truth.htm

Political description of Israeli “settlements” (Israeli home-building) on the "West Bank", as an “obstacle to peace” / “expansion of “borders” through the alleged building of “illegal-settlements”, in reality is political support for both the “Palestinian” Arab false-claim to Israeli Area C of the West Bank, and for their intention to steal ALL the land of Israel and expel (or murder) the Jews.

The Shattered Goblet - Jewish Stories (chabad.org)

“Palestinian” Arab propaganda seeks without any evidence, to falsely-assert the “Palestinian” Arabs come either from peoples pre-dating the Jewish people, or allegedly from Jewish converts, as a device to falsely-claim the land of Israel. Yet they appear somewhat “confused” about their ancestry, failing to produce any one convincing story. They falsely-claim without evidence that the “Palestinian” Arabs are variously (depending on the audience):

The so-called “real-Jews”; aka from converted Jews (while also claiming the Jewish people are “fake”),
from the Philistines,
and inconsistent with the foregoing, the Palestinians claim to their own people, likewise without evidence, they come from the Canaanites (see source next).
 
While promoting their conflicting ancestry propaganda, the “Palestinian” Arabs insult the reader’s intelligence by providing:
No details, no objective-scientific sources; zero credible anthropological evidence.
 
“Palestinian” Arab propaganda that replaces the history of Jewish presence in the Jewish people’s ancestral-homeland of Israel, with a fake Arab history. The Canaanites do not exist today and the “Palestinian” Arabs have no connection with them (either):

The “Palestinian” Arabs falsely-claim to be Canaanites:
http://myrightword.blogspot.com/2011/03/...s-are.html
 
Pro-“Palestinian” Arabs also falsely-claim the “Palestinian” Arabs are the so-called “real Jews”, while also seeking falsely to deny the Judah heritage of the Jewish people, yet providing: No evidence.
Were any scientific evidence purported, its source should be quoted so the reader can discover what other experts say about it.
 
Whereas millions of Jewish men, women, and children, were murdered by the Nazis for being ethnically-Jewish, the “Palestinian” Arabs and their anti-Semitic supporters claim propaganda-fantasy falsely-denying the Judah heritage of the Jewish people and falsely-claiming the “Palestinian” Arabs are descendants of Jews, so as to dishonestly evade the noble Quran’s recognition that the Land of Israel is given by Allah / God to the Jewish people (see the noble Quran: Sura “Al-Maaida” 5:20-21).

To do this they seek to perpetrate a hoax that Jewish Israelis are foreign invaders. This is to attempt to justify taking the land of Israel, in which the Jewish community has had unbroken presence since from Biblical times !
 
Referring to the Bible where it talks about the Jewish people being given the land of Canaan by Allah / God, the noble Quran recognizes (without naming it) that the Land of Israel is given by Allah / God to the Jewish people, saying:  

Quote:Sura (chapter) “Al-Maaida” [“The Table” or “The Table Spread with Food”] 5:21:

“O my people! Enter the holy land which Allah hath assigned unto you, 
and turn not back ignominiously, for then will ye be overthrown, to your own ruin.”

The allegation that Israel / the Jews, “illegally occupy Palestine” (the Roman-imposed rename for Israel / Judah), is “Palestinian” Arab falsehood-propaganda falsely-validated by the United Nations with its built-in pro-“Palestinian” Arab bias (see below). There has never been an indigenous “Palestine” / Arab sovereign state in the land of Israel upon which the “Palestinian” Arabs could base any claim to any part of Israel.
 
“Palestinian” Arab “Psychological Projection” propaganda attempts to justify Arab invasion, theft, and illegal-occupation, of the ancestral-homeland of the Jewish people - Israel, by alleging the Jews / Israel invaded the land and stole it from the “Palestinian” Arabs. They do this both by falsely-denying the roots of the Jewish people in the Jews ancestral-homeland of Israel, and by failing to mention that the “Palestinian” Arabs mostly originate from Foreign-Arab-Migrant-Workers who came to the land of Israel just prior to, and during the British Mandate (see below), and who sought to take all the land from its indigenous Jews and seek to murder or expel them.
 
People tend to be mislead by the “halo-reputation” United Nations which falsely-validates the accusation of an Israeli illegal-occupation. The U.N. and its structures have for many years had a built-in pro “Palestinian” Arab bias. The “Palestinian” Arabs start-off in U.N. votes by enjoying a block-vote in their favour of up to 56 Arab and additional Islamic-aligned countries (e.g. U.N. member states that are also members of the “Organization of Islamic Cooperation” and follow its policies when voting in the U.N.), and influence of Arab oil money with consequential trading power; compared to Israel being just one country.
 
Israel cannot logically nor in law, illegally -“occupy” the “West Bank: nor Gaza, since they are land of previous indigenous Jewish kingdoms, were retrieved from Egyptian / Jordanian illegal-occupation, and the entity making that false-claim “Palestine” - has never existed as a sovereign state.
 
Israel left Gaza to Palestinian Autonomy in 2005, under the Oslo Accords.
 
Israel cannot logically nor in law, illegally-“occupy” East Jerusalem because:
There has never been a “Palestine” indigenous sovereign state,
Jerusalem was never internationally-designated for any Arab state,
East Jerusalem (Old City) was the capital of previous Jewish Kingdoms,
was retrieved from illegal-Jordanian-occupation in 1967, from which the Jews had been expelled by the Jordanian illegal-occupiers in 1948.
 
Israel cannot logically nor in law, illegally-“occupy” the Golan Heights, since it is land of previous Jewish kingdoms, e.g. the Jewish Hasmonean Kingdom.
 
 
The legal definition of “Occupation” by countries is unclear (see below), but Israel cannot logically nor properly in law, be accused of illegal “occupation” of its own ancestral-homeland, and also where the regions concerned, were:
 
1) LAST under the illegal-occupation of a third party: This means prior to the 1967 war, the illegal-occupation by Jordan of the “West Bank” and East Jerusalem, and by Egypt of Gaza.
 
2) Where all the land in question rightfully belongs to the party, here Israel, accused of the alleged “occupation”:
All the land upon which the “Palestinian” Arab colonists reside, is of previous Jewish indigenous sovereign states of the Kingdoms of Israel (Samaria) / Judah.
 
3) Where the claim of “occupation” is made by an alleged-entity “Palestine” which never existed as an indigenous sovereign state, or by the “Palestinian” Arabs who arrived in the land after its indigenous Jews (see below); the “Palestinian” Arabs also not considering themselves a “People” until the 1960’s (see below).
 
There has never been any indigenous “Palestine” / Arab sovereign state upon which the “Palestinian” Arabs could either:
 > Base any claim to the land of Israel; or any part thereof.
 > Claim any alleged illegal “occupation”.

When the "Palestinian" Arabs claim to be an "occupied people", it is because that other "Palestinian" Arab false-claim of an illegal-occupation of land by the Jews / Israel (of the Jews own ancestral-homeland (!)), stands unprovable and lame. This is because there has never been an indigenous "Palestine" / Arab sovereign state in the land of Israel upon which the "Palestinian" Arabs could base any claim to any part of Israel.
While the legal definition of "illegal-occupation" is unclear in international law, it is generally accepted it can only apply to land. The assertion it can apply to a People is a creative, rather than a legal, concept.

Israel is the only country to which the all the land in question can rightfully belong, since the last indigenous sovereign state in the land prior to the RE-establishment of Israel in 1948, was the Jewish Hasmonean Kingdom with (what is now East) Jerusalem as its capital, and including the “West Bank”, Gaza, and Golan Heights.
 
Therefore just as Israel / the Jewish people logically cannot:
“Invade”,
Or “steal”,
or “illegally-settle”,
or “be a colony on”,
its OWN ancestral-homeland,
it also cannot logically “illegally-occupy” its OWN ancestral-homeland.
 
Since the “Palestinian” Arabs arrived in the land of Israel well after its indigenous Jews (see below), this makes the Arabs the “settler-colonists”.
 
“Belligerent Occupation” is a matter of fact resting on the assertion of authority and control not sanctioned by international agreement. International laws on this are complex and lacking in clarity:
http://removethewall.org/wp-content/uplo...n-2009.pdf
 
The legal definition of “Occupation” is therefore unclear, and apparently also fails to consider a verifiable-claim to the land by the alleged-Occupier as a defence to the allegation. Therefore any country recovering land by force to which it has verifiable-claim, may be considered an “illegal occupier”, where political-allegiance is against it in the United Nations.
 
 
“United Nations” and “European Union” bias against Israel:
 
The allegation of an Israeli illegal-occupation of: “Palestine” / “Palestinian Land”, is “Palestinian” Arab propaganda based in denying Jewish roots in the Jews ancestral-homeland of Israel, falsely-validated by the “United Nations” and “European Union”. Both the U.N and E.U. falsely-treat the Jewish people as “invaders”, and so also as “thieves” and “illegal-occupiers” of the Jews OWN ancestral-homeland (land of the prior Jewish kingdoms of Judah / Israel), and therefore consequently of building “illegal-settlements” there, with Palestinian terrorism considered “resistance to occupation”.

The “Palestinian” Arabs falsely-allege Israeli Jews all came from Europe. Some Jews are returnee-exiles, since the Jewish people have Judah heritage (“Jew”=citizen of “Judah” - Judaism is both an ethnicity as well as a religion). Yet the Jewish people are indigenous to their ancestral-homeland of Israel, with unbroken presence there from Biblical times:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographi...e_(region)
 
The Jewish people have had prior sovereign states in the land; example:
Post-Biblical history records the Jewish Hasmonean Kingdom - Map including the “West Bank”, Gaza, and Golan Heights, with its capital of (what is now EAST) Jerusalem / “Old City”; between 110 BCE / 754 BH and 63 BCE / 706 BH:

Coins from the Jewish Hasmonean Kingdom:

ii) Reign of the Hasmonean Kingdom’s last King - King Mattathias Antigonus, c. [approx.] 40 BCE / 682 BH. See (at last looking) the seventh image down, at:

The “Palestinian” Arabs claim ALL the land of Israel, and so falsely-claim it is all “occupied”.
 
 
Who were the Arabs living in British “Palestine” Mandate administered Israel?
 
The League of Nations in 1922 resurrecting the name “Palestine” from Roman occupation, authorized a British Mandate; an administrative region ruled by a foreign imperial power. JEWISH citizens of the British Mandate were Palestinian: Irrespective of race or religion citizens of the British Mandate became: “Palestinian”.
Extracts from five British “Government of Palestine” passports,
from which it can be seen that JEWISH citizens of the Mandate were “Palestinian”:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/p6hjhurn7...s.pdf/file
The Media referred to its inhabitants, as:
“Palestinian Arabs”, / “Palestinian Jews”, or as: “Arabs” / “Jews”.
 
The Ottoman Turkish empire did not use any such political name as “Palestine”:
The following image shows the list of Ottoman Turkish provinces called “vilayets”, which the reader can see includes “Syria” but does not include any “Palestine”:

Ottoman-occupied Judah / Israel was within the Ottoman province of “Syria”:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottoman_Syria
 
The “Palestinian Arabs” dropped the name “Arab” so you should not understand they mostly originate from Foreign-Arab-Migrant-Workers who came to the land of Israel just prior to, and during the British Mandate, to take advantage of higher wages through Jewish returnee-exiles:

84 out of 100 of the highest incidence Palestinian surnames (Palestine region in 2004), had highest incidence outside that region:

The “Palestinian” Arabs having considered themselves to be Arab only, this is why they were opposed to being called a “People” until the 1960’s, when they decided it fitted with their intention to steal the land of Israel from its indigenous Jews:
