Let's not start a back and forth about who was there first, because Israel was there as recently as 2,000 years ago. Where was Palestine in those days?
Also, you're forgetting that Britain gave the land to Palestine in the first place, then took it only 40 years after that and gave it to Israel.
@GrinNude There was no such thing as Palestine in those days. https://theconversation.com/the-history-of-israel-and-palestine-alternative-names-competing-claims-163156#:~:text=Taking%20stock,become%20water%20under%20the%20bridge.
