I don't care how long someone lived in a place, if you can't keep it, you lose it. I'm not saying it's fair, but it simply is. "historical claims" may be an animus for action or a causus belli for conflict, but it has no legitimate weight.
The more hell it is? The faster it gets ended.
This is why ceasefires are bad ideas.
Also, no one's pointed this out, but figs are delicious.
Correct. Her OVER emphasis on "generations" is pure hysteria. She cannot even get a simple fact straight! A generation is typically 20-25 years, right? Millennia are much longer! (technically a millennia could be measured in "generations" (40) but you know? That's just silly)
Figs are yummy, so are olives. I recently discovered "cracked olives" 😺 which... take a little to get used to (lemon and hot peppers?) but are in fact delicious. I think mine came from Jordan? Lebanon? They might even be from the West Bank! It isn't clearly labeled. They're made all around the Mediterranean.
Ceasefires are OK as long as combat doesn't re-start. Otherwise I agree: it just lets both sides "arm up" and the ensuing bloodshed is even worse.
