Two distinct and adversarial groups claiming
rights of possession to a hotly disputed land
one group through the right of ancestral
heritage, a people clinging to a land whose
linkage is traced through the Biblical era and
beyond, the other by right of conquest as
colonial settlers, a condition they accuse the
indigenous population of representing as they
boast themselves the original inhabitants
prepared to mount unceasing terror to succeed
in dislodging Israelites from their ancient
Judaean homeland claimed by Arabs naming
themselves Palestinians, the historical Roman
Empire designation for occupied Jewish land.
Jews returned to their cherished homeland saw
no handicap in envisioning the re-creation of
their Jewish state on a portion of their land, yet
the migrant Arabs fumed and rejected the offer
to share turning instead to conflict designed to
extinguish the Jewish state and the Jews that it
held, to no avail. Now the world body whose
decision was flagrantly repulsed cossets and
gently humours the Palestinian pretenders while
sternly, injudiciously berates the Jewish State for
its bald impudence in believing it has the moral
right to its self-defence from Islamist terrorists.
