Israel will immediately start new settlements on the land. There is no doubt in my mind this has been their plan since the very beginning.

Anyone who thinks Israel is America's friend is deceiving themselves. Israel only cares about one thing - more, more, more and if they can get it from us in the form of billions in aid every year or steal it from the Palestinians so much the better. The land Israel is on today was a gift to the Jews after the Holocaust. It wasn't the UN's land to give to the beleaguered Jews. The UN stole it from Palestinians who had been living there for in some cases hundreds of years. Just stole it.

Kind of reminds me of how the U.S. government stole our part of the North American continent and gave it to white settlers and threw the indigenous peoples onto reservations.

Maybe that's why the U.S. government, especially conservatives, get along so well with Israel. They both love to steal things that aren't theirs and take them for themselves or give it to "their" people.
