No land was stolen. All land was purchased before the war. All land taken after wars was taken after wars started by the Arabs.
That's always been the case with nations who lost wars. Germany lost the war and lost land because of it. Should Germany take back land that was "brutally taken from them"?
Or should they maybe just accept that they shouldn't have started the war? The Germans certainly have accepted that.
- lostlogin 9mo agoIf a war has finished, should the victor still be able to keep taking land off the loser? What’s the duration of that right?
- JumpCrisscross 9mo ago> If a war has finished, should the victor still be able to keep taking land off the loser? What’s the duration of that right? Practically? In 2026? As long as you can keep it. We're back to deciding borders through force versus treaty. Which, based on the rhetoric around Gaza, is ambiguously worse.
- s1artibartfast 9mo agoLargely yes. That is a risk of starting a war. If an aggressor is defeated, the victor gets to make demands and set terms for ending hostilities.
