. The Israelis returned conquered territory during the six-day-war back to Egypt.
. Muslims did conquer Armenia but returned the territory back.
. The United States conquered almost all of Mexico at one point but returned most of the country back.
. Israelis had Palestine given to them by the U.N. (United States and Britain) in 1948 at the end of WWII. All due to the holocaust.
"The question to be asked is how long can the history of anti-semitism and the Holocaust be used as a fence to exempt Israel from arguments and sanctions against it for its behavior towards the Palestinians, arguments and sanctions that were used against other repressive governments, such as South Africa? How long are we going to deny that the cries of the people of Gaza... are directly connected to the policies of the Israeli government and not to the cries of the victims of Nazism? You cannot continue to victimize someone else just because you yourself were a victim once, there has to be a limit." Edward Said
