If not Israel, what sovereign nation has legal claim to the West Bank?

Jordan relinquished all claims to the West Bank on July 31, 1988. Who then if not Israel has legal claim to the land?

The Jews had it. Jordan took it. Israel took it back from them and Jordan said I wash my hands.

It is Israel and not a Muslim state and never will be.

It would be nice to see the Palestinians get it sort of in the same way Israel got theres

Israel is evidently not a sovreign nation if there has been much dispute over the Palestinian territories that they want and the illegal and bad acts towards the Palestinians. Israel can move to a deserted island and claim to be a sovreign nation there. I think what is now called israel will either be conquered back or it will return to how it was supposed to be according to the partition plan and I know for sure that the wall will go down.

Seriously? The Palestinians do.

Let's see, It only takes half a brain to figure this one out. The Palestinians of course! Did you think the world started in 1948. Just think years before that year and try to tell me this doesn't make sense?

If Israel wants to claim the west bank and Gaza as their own, as no other sovereign nation has a legal claim to it, then they will have to annex them and give their inhabitants Israeli citizenship. This means an extra 3.9 million Arabs added to Israel's current population, in other words Israel will have Arab majority.

Is that what you want?

the place was far better off with the brits administrating it. unfortunately zionist instigated ww2 left britain broke and bleeding [while american and jewish entrepreneurs profited]. the irgun bombing of king david hotel 1946 and murder of many brit personnel hastened their departure. shame. zio nazis ruined everything and are stained with innocent blood. the hex star is a curse on them. so they bang their heads against jupiter's temple wall.

I bought a house on land contract the property tax bill comes in both mine and the land contract holders name?

Is the IRS going to make me split my first time home buyers credit with them. I sent them a copy of my tax bill as part of my proof of owner ship along with a signed contract, bank statement and copy of my Drivers License with my new address on it. My friends are telling me that the IRS will consider them as part owner and they will be entitled to part of my credit. Is this true?

The IRS has been very vague on this issue. They seem to be saying that you can divide the FTHB credit any way that makes sense. In your case you bought the house from the other person on the tax bill. Therefore they are like the mortgage holder. I would have applied for 100% of the credit had I done the return. I have done a good number of these split ownership returns and never had one come back yet. The only time there is a problem is if folks take more than 100% of the credit on one home.

Q. Can a taxpayer claim the first-time homebuyer credit if the purchase is pursuant to a seller financing arrangement (for example, a contract for deed, installment land sale contract, or long-term land contract), and the seller retains legal title to secure the taxpayer's payment obligations?

A. If the taxpayer obtains the "benefits and burdens" of ownership of a residence in a seller financing arrangement, then the taxpayer can claim the credit even though the seller retains legal title. Factors that indicate that a taxpayer has the benefits and burdens of ownership include: 1. the right of possession, 2. the right to obtain legal title upon full payment of the purchase price, 3. the right to construct improvements, 4. the obligation to pay property taxes, 5. the risk of loss, 6. the responsibility to insure the property and 7. the duty to maintain the property.

What will you do as a Prime Minister about the crisis in West Bank and Gaza?

Sure?

What do you think?

Its interesting that you think it is land that "belongs" to the Palestinians, considering they weren't considered a separate people from Syrians until 1965, with the creation of the Palestine Liberation Movement. Even the 1947 Partition plan didn't call for the creation of a "Palestinian State," rather, it called for the creation of a vague, "Arab State," because at the time, the term "Palestinian" didn't exist (to describe Palestinian Arabs exclusively, as it does today).

Also, it has been concluded by various sources that no genocide has taken place. Since 1948 (the year of Israel's creation) the Palestinian population has quadrupled (from 860,000 to about 4.7 million). This is, by definition, the exact opposite of genocide.

Israel already face a possible war crimes and crimes against humanity hearing if the Richard Goldstone's report is accepted by the UN next month. Britain should break off diplomatic relations and any Israeli minister who visits the UK should be arrested. Its time the world stopped protecting Israel. America has already asked Netanyahu to freeze further building in the West Bank a request that fell on deaf ears. This is a government who thinks that they can commit crimes at will and soon it will be proved that they even tried to use other countries citizens passports and identities to commit murder

I'd take a stand against Israel further encroaching in to Palestinian land.Roundly criticise them for using collective punishment on a people who have nowhere to escape to and I would insist they stopped throwing Palestinians out of their homes and giving them to Jewish people.That's the sort of thing the Nazi's did FHS!I would then want them to withdraw to the legal boundaries and stop the apartheid restrictions placed on Palestinians and demand they be allowed their basic human rights.I would in turn expect Hamas to lay down their arms and channel their money and energy in to bettering life for the Palestinian people.If Hamas did this I would expect Israel to recognise them as the democratically elected party of Gaza.After a cooling period I would encourage dialogue and take it from there.

Kerryann: I do actually know someone who has been there,do you?They went in to Palestine and were utterly appalled at the deprivation in stark contrast to Israeli life.Israel is promoting itself as a tourist destination FHS,an idyllic place to go.Palestine is a place were people merely exist.You should go,it might open your eyes.

I do not know why there are so many pro Zionist bastards around here. especially that person who was talking about what Palestinians are doing. first of all, before Palestinians did attack Israel with rocket launchers it was the Jews who took over their land not to mention more than half of their land and took it without the Palestinians wanting them to. It were the Jews that once they took over Palestine they banished 700 thousand Palestinians from their homes. So what? the Palestinians should do nothing? All the Palestinians want is Israel to give back their land. So now here comes the peace treaty. Israel said they want a peace treaty with the Palestinians, guess who broke it? Not Palestine, Israel did. By what? Killing a massive amount of Palestinians and injuring a lot as well. So please people, learn history before you start hating on Palestinians. As prime Minister I would give the land back to the Palestinians and tell the Jews to get the hell out of here and live somewhere else.

Prime Minister of WHAT? Gaza?

Round up that gang of Hamas rat thugs which has been been making a fat living by "protecting" the people of Gaza.

Here is what Hamas thinks of the people of Gaza:

"A woman can go out to fight the enemy without her husband's permission, and so does the slave: without his master's permission." [Article 12]

Only Hamas would worry about what it's (Gaza) "slaves" can do in this day and age.

The people of Gaza are only "tools" for Hamas to use to ensure their fat life style.

.

Its horrible how some people are saying

leave it too the Israelis and Palestinians

to sort it out. Its easy to say that

Israelis have so much money, huge military

and Palestinians have so little, not even

a state.

If I were PM, I would put great pressure

on Israel

1. to stop building of settlements on occupied land.(WHICH IS ILLEGAL)

2. place East Jerusalem in negotiations

3. to go ahead immediately with the road map for peace

negotiations and to prepare for a Palestinian state

4. accept Hamas as a political party (on condition that they

accept Israels right to exist.

Its up to them but I think the right thing to do is to

create a Palestinian state according to 1967 borders

with East Jerusalem as the capital. Thats all the

Palestinians want and its really not a lot

Get your facts right try signing up to Honest Reporting, you are being Brainwashed.

Israel Pulled out of Gaza and returned it to them what happened next HAMAS moved in.

It is Power They Want they are consumed with hatred and get their Muslin brothers & sister killed

in the process. Get rid of Hamas who mostly are mercenaries sent in to keep the hatred ticking along and of course to more innocent people that die just helps their recruiting from grieving families,

All this Killing in the name of religion what wasted lives on all sides.

the land never belonged to the palestinians

the whole world sees that the palestinians and their neighbours torment Israel and complain when they retaliate

edit

i am wondering if any of you have actually visited palestine or isreal or even know or met anybody who lives there or just watched something on u tube

misty hamas will never lay down their arms in a million years , if you know anything about the situation you would know this

Don't count on the UK PM to do anything as it would sure enough go wrong. This guy probably can't wipe his a-- properly without his puppetmaster Mandy there to observe.

Seriously you need to stop worrying. You have either made this all up in your own tiny mind, have your own agenda or never been there. I have been there and I've seen what goes on. If you don't want the palestinians to be so poor then just ask Hamas and Hezbollah to distribute the money and aid to them that they steal to buy arms and make themselves rich and powerful. I don't see Israel sending their women and kids to blow up palestinians as the Hamas and Hezbollah terrorist do to them. They do that as the men of those terrorist organizations are too cowardly to do it themselves. Or maybe not. Maybe they are just busy trying to work out which pig they are going to slaughter next for their roast pork lunch.

Don't take it to heart as its just my opinion from having been there and tried to help and the Hamas on the Gaza make that impossible unless you are giving them bribes and agreeing they should be killing the women and children of the Israelis.

the Palestinians launch rockets and suicide bombs at the Israelis

the palestinians target young women to stop them continuing on their own religion and families

Israel are forced to spend a fortune on their army and security measures in order to protect herself

the land was paid for jordan got some too

did you forget this ?

I would say that Israel gets the cave of the patriarchs and that they get all of Jerusalem. I also would say that they get more land around Jerusalem and more land near the dead sea (from the south) and from the North a little more land for more access to the Jordan River.

Stop reading novels and read some history, you're greatly misinformed, you've believed propaganda and not history. The PM should stay out of the way and let Israel sort it out on their own or with the PLO/ Jordan.

nothing.. they will out breed the Israelis and take over the whole country in 500 years.

I honestly do not know, but there are many people with more knowledge than I who do not know either. I think these people will just have to keep on trying to find a solution.

I am more concerned about what is going on in my own country. i would be sorting that first before even looking at Gaza

The PM won't do anything because of the rich Zionist lobby in britain.

Israel is in breach of numerous UN resolutions and repeated human rights violations, and they have WMD, so why don't we invade Israel and change their internal politics like we did in Iraq? Why do we put up with Israel?

If the Jews continue to defy the United States and steal more Palestinian land should the US attack Israel?

I think the US should attack the Jews and make them leave all of the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Please correct yourself.

Israelis, not "Jews".

I am half-Jewish myself, and I am anti-Zionist and support the Palestinians.

Stop generalising.

The only american president who took a tougher stand with israel was JFK, it was the letter that he sent to the, then , israeli president Bengurion asking him in clear terms to open Demona nuclear facility for inspection , otherwise that would threaten the bilateral relationship between the two countries, so it was since that time israel was working on it's nuclear arsenal, so actually it was the 1st country in the middle east to go nuclear , but that's totally blacked out in the us ; also Israel has huge impact on us middle east policy (I'd rather say they dictate that policy), that any us president is very much dettered by the israeli lobbying network from taking any stand against israel no matter what, The Israel - us relations is a big issue that has an enormous affect on the us especially in the middle east

It is the Palestinians that have broken or never even started to adhere to their promises made in every peace accord in the middle east,the very first thing they agreed to do was stop firing rockets into Israel,and this was over twenty years ago.They simply don't want Israel to exist.Do some research and get your facts straight,you will see for yourself that it is Israel trying to comply,but the palestineans refuse to.

Bad idea. That is just what they want you to do. They people of Israel have been waiting for that sort of fool move on our part. Ever since the end of World War II, they have been building underground networks that stretch the entire length of the globe. If we were to attack, they would unleash their tunnel worms (because how else would they have all those tunnels other than the awesomness that is tunnel worms?) and they would burst through the Earth's mantel and devour all of America in defense.

Do you wanted to be eated all up by Tunnel Worms? No? Didn't think so.

Yeah as if the US can attack anyone else in the world now. They have enough things going on. Where and how can they afford to do that now? They are working on Iran. Thats the next invasion they are going to do.

I don't know why you people think the God Almighty USA can interfere in every other countries affairs.

Mind you business and if you did that, the USA would be in alot better shape than it is today. You have so many problems, yet you look for more.

Got facts? Or just uneducated guesses after listening to CNN, the only station with a show dedicated to certain religions and political viewpoints?

Are you crazy? We are the only people that protect Israel. If we attack them, get ready for Armageddon.

You must be a muslim. No need to answer this one.

no but it should cut off all aid.

Yes I agree 100%

ISRAEL CAN DO WHATEVER IT WANTS WITH TERRITORY IT WINS IN DEFENSIVE WARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Read about international law. Israel is not doing anything wrong.

Why was the wall in the West Bank built in a curved form?

Why not building it in a way to prevent the terrorist attacks and at the same time to minimize the land loss for the Palestinians? Why does it have to annex so much land?

to make life intolerable for palestinians. just like zionit posters say. they want them to go away. but even hitler couldn't make all the jews leave.

ethnic cleansing

At present, no country has sovereignty over the West Bank, although Israel has the moral right to such sovereignty.

So the building of a barrier (not a "wall") has saved thousands of Israeli lives from Arab terrorists, and is entirely legal. Its path is designed to minimize the discomfort to Jews and Arabs alike.

I did not notice that the asker has wondered about the legality of Muslim terrorists firing rockets and mortars at Israeli women and children.

.

No land has been annexed yet. In 1948 there were supposed to be two new states formed in what had been Palestine, This is in addition to Jordan, which was made up of nearly 80 percent of Palestine and was split off by Britain.

The part of Palestine that was designated to become a Jewish state became the Jewish state of Israel. The portion of Palestine that was to become an Arab state never became an individual state. Rather, Jordan and Egypt conquered parts. However, Jordan and Egypt did not have sovereignty over Judea, Samaria and Gaza.

Until this day, no country has sovereignty over Judea, Samaria and Gaza. The barrier thus follows the natural population townships.

For this reason, Israel is not occupying any sovereign territory, and there is no country to give it back to, because no country (since Turkey) had ever been sovereign there.

The time has come to halt all the false claims of Israeli occupation.

The time has come to grant the Palestinian Arabs Jordanian citizenship, and move the Gazans from the crowded Gaza strip to the nearly empty Sinai. Let them have whatever citizenship they choose: Egyptian, Palestinian or Jordanian.

Only then, can there be peace between the Arabs and the Jews.

.

To answer you, the fence was built, along much of the frontier separating Israel from the West Bank, It was built to minimize as much land loss as possible, but other more important factors where taken into account theree are either no barriers of any kind, or easily avoidable ones.The land used in building the security fence is seized for military purposes, not confiscated, and it remains the property of the owner. Legal procedures are already in place to allow every owner to file an objection to the seizure of their land. Moreover, property owners are offered compensation for the use of their land and for any damage to their trees. Contractors are responsible for carefully uprooting and replanting the trees. So far, more than 60,000 olive trees have been relocated in accordance with this procedure. In response to dozens of suicide bombings, and daily terrorist attacks against its civilians, Israel decided to construct a security fence near the “Green Line” to prevent Palestinian terrorists from infiltrating into Israel.Israel did not want to build a fence, and resisted doing so for more than 35 years. If anyone is to blame for the construction, it is Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and the other Palestinian terrorists. Now a large majority of Israelis support the construction of the security fence; in fact, both Jews and Arabs living along the Green Line favor the barrier to prevent penetration by thieves and vandals as well as terrorists. The fence has also caused a revolution in the daily life of some Israeli Arab towns because it has brought quiet, which has allowed a significant upsurge in economic activity.The security fence does create some inconvenience to Palestinians, but it also saves lives. The deaths of Israelis caused by terror are permanent and irreversible whereas the hardships faced by the Palestinians are temporary and reversible.It is not unreasonable or unusual to build a fence for security purposes. Many other nations have fences to protect their borders (the United States is building one now to keep out illegal Mexican immigrants), and Israel already has fences along the frontiers with Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan, so building a barrier to separate Israel from the Palestinian Authority is not revolutionary.

It is curved only when viewed from above. When viewed from in front or behind, it is quite straight.

But I sense a bit of unpleasantness towards the Israelis, based perhaps on a lack of knowledge of the extent of terrorist incursions from the West Bank into Israel proper before the barrier was constructed.

And even now, before the barrier has been completed, the terrorists make a long detour before they can intrude though the areas where there is no barrier.

Hundreds of Israeli lives have been saved by this barrier.

.

I wonder what the asker would say about the advisability of Muslim terror attacks on Israel. Perhaps he could include that in a future question.

We find that certain Arab groups, with a clear self-interest, oppose the security barrier, which was erected to prevent terrorist incursions into Israel. But they have never expressed any opinion on whether that barrier is straight or curved.

Ramadan Shalah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader, has publicly admitted that Israel's security fence is an important obstacle to the terrorist organizations, and that if it weren't there, the situation would be entirely different. The Palestinian Islamic Jihad has carried out the greatest number of suicide bombing attacks during the past few years.

So wouldn't the best advice to Israel be that they should complete this security barrier?

Snakes concave irregularly.

I must smile at the audacity of a Buzzer, who blames the security barrier on Israel's alleged desire "to make life intolerable for palestinians [sic]."

Actually, it is because of the Palestinian terrorists that Israel has had to invest so much in building this barrier. The land used in building the security barrier has been seized for military purposes, not confiscated, and it remains the property of the owner. Legal procedures are already in place to allow every owner to file an objection to the seizure of their land. Moreover, property owners are offered compensation for the use of their land and for any damage to their trees. Contractors are responsible for carefully uprooting and replanting the trees. So far, more than 60,000 olive trees have been relocated in accordance with this procedure.

Moreover, when Buzzer refers to the barrier as a "wall," he is either showing his ignorance or intentionally lying. About six percent of the barrier is actually a wall, and the rest is fencing.

Every effort is being made to exclude Palestinian villages from the area within the barrier and NO TERRITORIES ARE BEING ANNEXED, contrary to the asker’s false claim. The land used in building the security barrier is seized for military purposes, not confiscated, and it remains the property of the owner. Israel is providing agricultural passageways to allow farmers to continue to cultivate their lands, and crossing points to allow the movement of people and the transfer of goods.

The United States is building a barrier along part of its border with Mexico -- merely to prevent illegal immigrants from entering the country, not terrorists who seek to murder American citizens. Ironically, the UN, which passed a resolution condemning Israel’s barrier, is building its own barrier to improve security around its New York headquarters.

Israel is correct and has the right to protect itself from terrorism and murder of its citizens.
