The entire continent of North America changed hands in the last 250 years many European lands changed hands in the last 150 years, some Israeli lands changed hands in the last 80 years, why should only we open our records?
The Palestinian people exist and have very real and justified grievances.
There's hardly anything comparable in Europe.
The Romani people. Perhaps even Jews, depending on attitudes towards Israel.
Probably other groups who are even less visible, so we don't know about the challenges they face. The 19th century push for nation states has marginalized and tried to erase many groups.
I think it's pretty telling how Europeans treat those people now, and how Israeli people treat Palestinians today.
Some of us learned to be better.

Ok, I’m for building them a better future, we’re on agreement in that
Do you disagree that there's a good chance that by choosing to live and pay taxes in Israel you're going to have a net negative effect on the future of the Palestinians over your lifetime?
